It sounds too good to be true. But it's not.In this episode, you'll meet Megan Collier, who's been teaching women in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond how to create user-generated content (UGC) and get paid for it.FYI we're not talking about becoming an influencer or posting to your own social media where your judgmental sister can see it. We're talking about creating content for brands to use in their marketing—content that can pay anywhere from a few hundred bucks per video to $10,000+ per month for those who go all in.Megan breaks down exactly what UGC is, how it's different from influencing, why brands specifically want to work with our age group (finally!), and how you can get started even if you've never been on camera before. She shares real stories from her students—including her own mom—who are making real money doing this.Come as you are. Show the heck up.
