What is UGC?

User-Generated Content (UGC), often referred to as crowd-created content, has revolutionized modern marketing. By tapping into the creativity and voices of a brand’s community, UGC allows brands to showcase authentic content generated by their customers, fans, and followers. This community-driven approach builds stronger connections, infuses campaigns with relatability and trust, and transforms individuals into active participants in shaping a brand’s narrative.
