Episode 10 - UGC as the Ultimate Side Hustle

In this episode of the UGC 101 podcast, I sat down with a UGC pro, Nick Castle.

Nick takes us on a deep dive into his journey, starting from his transition out of various side hustles and into the dynamic world of UGC. We really dig into the nitty-gritty of what it takes to balance a full-time job while building a thriving content creation career. Nick shares some invaluable insights on how he built his portfolio, highlighting the power of platforms like Fiverr to get started. A key takeaway from our conversation is his emphasis on authenticity in personal branding and how that genuine approach, along with his amazing content on his social channels, has really opened doors for him. We also chat about keeping your audience engaged and how to handle all those questions you get about content creation. Plus, Nick even touches on his new passion for tech and gadgets! Nick also opens up about his evolution from a solo creator to running his own UGC agency. We explore the massive potential of local opportunities, especially in the real estate sector, and why a strong social media presence is absolutely vital for agents today. He's super honest about the challenges of managing creators and, again, balancing a full-time gig with all of this. Nick underscores the critical role of effective communication and shares how outsourcing editing has been a game-changer for boosting efficiency.
