📧 UGC Community #81 | November 24, 2025

We all have that one regret.

"I should have started a YouTube channel in 2012." "I should have opened an Etsy shop in 2015." "I should have been on TikTok in 2019."

It’s easy to look at saturated platforms and feel like you missed the boat. The competition is fierce, the algorithms are tough, and it feels like everyone else got there first.

But right now, there is a massive shift happening in e-commerce that is wide open for creators—if you move fast. We’re talking about TikTok Shop.

While others are complaining about the platform, savvy UGC creators are realizing that their specific skillset (making videos that sell products) makes them dangerous in this new marketplace.

Here is why you should care about TikTok Shop, and how to "get in early" before it gets crowded.

[THE DEEP DIVE] Why TikTok Shop is the New Gold Rush for UGC Creators

Etsy is crowded. Instagram is polished. But TikTok Shop is currently the "Wild West," and that chaos creates opportunity. Here is how you can leverage it.

1. The "Shoppable Video" Service

Brands on TikTok Shop are desperate for volume. Unlike a standard brand awareness ad, "Shoppable Videos" (videos with the orange cart link) need to be churned out constantly to keep sales moving.

  • The Opportunity: Pivot your offering. Instead of just selling "UGC Ads," offer "TikTok Shop Bundles." These are slightly less polished, highly authentic videos specifically designed to drive an immediate tap on the orange cart.

  • The Pitch: "I see you're scaling on TikTok Shop. I specialize in creating high-volume 'Shoppable Videos' that highlight the cart link and drive instant conversions."

2. The "UGC Affiliate" Hybrid

Usually, we warn against working for commission only. However, TikTok Shop is the exception if you treat it as your own business.

  • The Opportunity: You don't need to invent a product or buy inventory (like on Etsy). You can request free samples from top-selling brands, create your signature high-quality UGC, and post it to your own account.

  • The Difference: Because you are a trained UGC creator, your videos will naturally be better than 99% of the user reviews out there. You understand hooks, lighting, and pacing. Use those skills to build a passive income stream where you earn a % of every sale.

3. It's Not "Influencing," It's Selling

This is a mental block for many. You might think, "I can't do TikTok Shop, I'm not an influencer."

  • The Reality: TikTok Shop buyers don't care about you; they care about the product. They aren't buying because they are your fan; they are buying because you showed them how the product solves their problem.

  • The Edge: This is exactly what UGC creators do every day. You are already an expert at product demos. TikTok Shop just removes the middleman.

Block 125+ Coupon Extensions Instantly

Stop coupon extensions before they even touch your checkout. KeepCart blocks 125+ plugins like Honey, CapitalOne Shopping, and Karma from auto-applying random codes and draining your margins.

Brands like Quince and Newton use KeepCart to protect revenue and keep every sale clean.

After months of using KeepCart, Mando says “It’s paid for itself multiple times over.”

[PRO TIP OF THE WEEK]

The "Best-Seller" Strategy. Don't guess what sells. Go to the TikTok Shop "Product Marketplace" and filter by "Top Selling" in a niche you like (e.g., Home Organization). Find a product that has sold 10k+ units but has ugly or low-quality video reviews. The Move: Reach out to that brand directly. "I see your [Product Name] is crushing it on Shop, but your top videos aren't doing it justice. I'd love to send you a sample of how a professional UGC video could double your conversion rate."
