USER-GENERATED

CONTENT (UGC)

Generating quality, consistent UGC internally is tricky.

You need to:

find talent

manage them

pay them

deal with editing

and more

The power of student content
(when managed well)

Student-created
content works

It builds trust. It drives engagement.
And it often outperforms traditional marketing.

We handle the messy middle.

You get authentic student voices.

We act as your outsourced UGC team -recruiting, training, paying students, managing, and editing student-generated content so your team gets campaign-ready videos and photos without the chaos.

Really impressive work we’re seeing come through and we’re so happy we’ve engaged Insider for this project.
