Feedback like this >>>>
It’s so funny because the brand had a turnaround of ONE day for the content and since it was for an app I was like what the heck let’s do this 😂
I scripted, filmed and edited both videos in the same day and I’m so glad to see the brand loved it!

Strategy Means Nothing If You’re Still Underpaid 💸
Being a UGC strategist doesn’t mean I’ll shut up about what creators deserve.
I’ve seen the lowball offers, the licensing tricks, the silence after the deliverables. I’m still gonna speak on it.
Because strategy means nothing if creators stay underpaid.
