Before you apply.
Do I need followers or previous clients?
You don’t need a large following to start learning UGC. Brands can assess the videos you make, not just your audience size. New creators begin with three sample videos; the requirements for each opportunity will vary.
What kind of UGC will I learn?
We coach across Canvas UGC, Trybe, and traditional UGC, from recurring brand work and performance-based campaigns to one-off projects and paid-ad content. You’ll also work on your personal brand so you can showcase your value and build connections. Each opportunity has its own brief, usage rights, and payment terms.
How do I get my Artec portfolio?
After joining Content Economy, send your email to Owen or your manager. Owen adds you to Artec. Once access is confirmed, sign in with that email and upload your three examples. We often recommend SideShift as an additional starting point for beginners exploring deals.
How does coaching work?
Daily group calls cover specific UGC skills, with seven different coaches across the team. Bring your videos, pitches, and questions for actionable feedback. One-on-one coaching support includes custom onboarding, a plan around your goals, and direct text access. That individual support is by text; private calls are not included.
Can I do this alongside a job?
You can work on your skills and applications around an existing job. You’ll need consistent time to film, apply, follow up, and make revisions. Tell us about your schedule in the application so the conversation is grounded in what you can commit to.
Does the community meet in person?
The photos show past community gatherings. Future meetups and trips are organized separately from membership. Dates, availability, and participation details are shared with the community when an event is announced.
Will joining guarantee me brand deals?
No. You get coaching, video reviews, community support, and access to shared opportunities, including deals from our team’s networks. You still create the work and apply, and brands decide whom to hire. The roadmap sets goals to work toward. Creator stories are individual experiences, not a typical outcome or earnings promise.

Applying starts the conversation. It does not enroll you in the program.
