No Vans or Only Fans | Complete UGC Guide for Beginners

Make a living, have a life.

UGC courses can cost hundreds of dollars. I wanted to make getting started more accessible, so this introductory price is a steal for the practical advice, pitch templates, and firsthand experience packed into this guide.

You don’t need a huge following, expensive equipment, or a completely different life to start creating content for brands.

You need to know what to film, how to make it worth watching, and how to approach the right people.

That’s what this guide is here for.

I create content for brands while living and travelling in my Jeep with my two dogs. This guide brings together practical steps and lessons I wish more people explained clearly, so you can start with products you already own.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:

• Film and edit product videos using your phone.

• Build a simple portfolio and find brand contacts.

• Send a specific pitch and follow up.

• Quote your work and understand content usage.

• Agree on revisions, deliver the work, and handle payment.

You’ll also get:

• Five adaptable pitch templates.

• An invoice template.

• A first-week action plan.

• Two printable checklists, including one to reuse every week.

• Answers to common beginner questions.

• A complete illustrative example from pitch to payment.

No confusing charts or pages of fluff. Just clear explanations, useful examples, and steps you can put into practice.

One downloadable 41-page PDF, with everything together.

Start with what you have. Give yourself another option.
