Spill the UGC
Two UGC creators. Zero gatekeeping. We're Hanna and Jana. We started UGC around the same time, met on Instagram, and after one too many 18-minute voice notes, we started a podcast. Every week we spill what's working, what flopped, and what we'd totally do differently. Pitching, portfolios, platforms, rates, inbounds, courses, hot takes. All of it. We're not gurus. We're a few months in, learning as we go, and sharing everything along the way. Basically the free resource we wish we had on day one. New episodes every Monday. Got a question or a hot take? Send it our way. Hanna's Links: Instagram Hanna Crocker UGC Portfolio Jana's Links: Instagram Jana Fogarty UGC Portfolio This podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only. Everything shared is the personal experience and opinion of the hosts and guests. It's not legal, financial, or tax advice, and individual results vary.
