In episode 108 of The Side Hustle Experiment Podcast  John (https://www.instagram.com/sidehustleexperiment/) and Drew  (https://www.instagram.com/realdrewd/)  break down how to ACTUALLY make money doing UGC — without needing a big following, fancy gear, or even your own audience.

We dive deep into the UGC business model, Amazon Influencer Program, and TikTok Shop to explain:
 ✅ What UGC really is (and what it’s not)
 ✅ How to land your first paid UGC deal
 ✅ The truth about brand partnerships and commissions
 ✅ Pros and cons of UGC vs AIP vs TikTok Shop
 ✅ Whether these models are saturated or still worth it in 2025
 ✅ And if you can actually make $1K–$10K/month from UGC content

If you're curious about how to make money with UGC, wondering if TikTok Shop is worth it, or looking for a beginner-friendly side hustle, this episode will give you the honest, no-fluff breakdown.
