What’s still stopping you from filming your first UGC video?

Host Nate Flake sits down with Cristina Yanez, a former home shopping TV host who traded midnight live shows for UGC. If you’ve been listening for months and still haven’t recorded a sample video, this episode is your nudge. 

You’ll hear which live selling skills carry over to UGC, which ones you’ll have to learn the hard way, and how to write a pitch that stands out in a crowded inbox. Maybe you freeze up on camera, or you’re worn out from a job that eats your nights and weekends.
