The podcast episode discusses the advantages of prioritizing UGC Retainer Deals to move your income from 1-2k months to 8-10k months within the first quarter of 2026! Here is why over 50% of my monthly income comes from UGC retainers, how I book them and how to stand out to be hired for a retainer contract, even as a new creator. Here's a breakdown of the key points: • What are Retainers? A retainer means a brand or agency hires your services for a set duration, rather than for a single, one-off project (0:42-1:02). This provides predictable income, as you know how much content you'll produce and how much you'll be paid for a specific period (1:12-1:29). • Benefits of Retainers: • Predictable Income: Over 65-75% of the speaker's UGC income comes from retainers, providing stability and peace of mind (2:29-2:51). • Less Clients, More Money: You can achieve your income goals with fewer clients, which is ideal for those with other commitments (2:53-3:00). • No Pressure to Go Viral: The focus is on delivering consistent, valuable content, with the brand deciding how it's used (3:02-3:07). • Control: You control your rates, time, and schedule, and can customize retainers (3:09-3:15). • Efficiency: Working with fewer brands allows for deeper integration and understanding of their message and audience, leading to more efficient content creation (8:05-8:29). • Why Brands Love Retainers: Brands appreciate not having to constantly search for new creators, as it simplifies bookkeeping and ensures a consistent brand voice (1:59-2:25, 3:44-3:56). • How to Secure Retainers: • Communicate Value: Position the retainer as beneficial to the brand, focusing on how it solves their problems rather than your need for consistent income (4:09-4:45, 9:02-9:13). • Demonstrate Reliability: Brands look for creators who deliver on time, communicate well, follow directions, are easy to work with, and take feedback constructively (6:59-7:14). • Make the Brand Look Good: Delivering excellent content makes the brand's team members look good to their superiors, increasing your likelihood of being hired (7:25-7:37). • Common Length: Most common retainer lengths are 3 to 6 months, though some can be on a rolling basis (7:49-7:58). • What to Avoid: Be wary of brands that ask for free videos with the promise of a retainer later, as this can be a "carrot dangle" to get free content (5:31-5:56). Instead, counter with an offer for one paid video at your normal rate to test performance (6:03-6:20).
