User-generated content, or UGC, looks and feels like it was made by a real person. That authenticity is why UGC-style videos work well in social feeds and in performance ads.
Where UGC-style content works
Product reviews, unboxings, how-to demos and testimonials suit this format, because viewers trust people who look like them more than polished ads.
What to put in a UGC brief
Share the product, the one message that matters, the format (for example a short vertical video), a few example hooks and anything that must or must not be said.
Keep it real, but on brand
Give creators room to speak naturally while setting clear guardrails on claims, tone and visuals.
Test and learn
Make several short variations with different hooks, run them, and keep what performs.
