My full workday as a UGC creator📸
🕗8:00 – Work starts! I started work a little bit early because I knew I had so much to get done today. First thing I always do is make a plan for the day of things I need to get done. Then, I started with finishing up edits on a video and submitting it to client A, and then sending in content ideas to client B.
🕤9:30 – I had a zoom meeting with a brand-new client, we had a great meeting and ended up closing a deal with her which is awesome! I personally think video calls are really beneficial for longer term partnerships with clients. Plus, you get to actually see and talk to the person which makes the work more personable!
🕙10:00 – After my meeting I had a really cool project to work on. I had the place where I get my acai bowls reach out to me to make a review video for their new smoothie flavors! I actually thought this was so cool because it is very rare that I work with places that are around near me that I travel to. Most work is done in my apartment
🕚11:00 -Took a break to eat a little something before I started filming for client B.
🕦11:30 -Started filming for client B which is a skincare client od mine. I absolutely LOVE working with them, it has been one of my favorite partnerships I have had so far. I also had a few b-roll clips for client C I needed so I did that too.
🕑2:00 – I normally take the time in the middle of the day to check my emails and answer anything that needs my attention, and than I will go back to working. So I did some editing for the rest of the day and I finished my work day at about 6 o’clock.
Keeping yourself organized and having a clear outlook on your day will help with your time management and productivity throughout the day! I find when I make myself a “to-do list” to complete throughout the day and cross out as I go, I am SO MUCH more productive and get a lot done rather than winging it.

As a UGC (User-Generated Content) creator, sharing a detailed look into my daily work routine not only emphasizes the importance of time management but also showcases the creative process behind content creation. I often start my day by scheduling tasks and setting goals, which is essential in maintaining focus and ensuring that I meet my deadlines. Throughout my workday, I engage in various activities, such as editing videos, collaborating with clients via Zoom, and creating content for different projects. It's fascinating how technology allows us to connect with clients remotely, building lasting partnerships that help expand our networks. Engaging with local businesses also adds a personal touch to my projects, as I capture and promote their offerings authentically. The balance between work and breaks is crucial for productivity. After each client meeting or filming session, I take the time to refresh my mind, allowing me to return to work with renewed energy. This also serves as a reminder that being a UGC creator is about more than just creating content; it's about fostering relationships and understanding the needs of the brands I collaborate with. Overall, sharing my experience as a UGC creator provides valuable insights into managing a creative career efficiently while also highlighting the benefits of being organized, communicative, and adaptive in an ever-evolving digital landscape.
