“I’m a total beginner with zero content creation skills. Will this work for me?” 

Absolutely. If you can film simple videos following a step-by-step roadmap – UGC Mastercourse™ will work for you.  

I started with content creation when I knew nothing about photography or videography. Heck, Reels and TikTok didn't even exist. That’s how I know you can start with basic skills and improve over time. 

Plus, you can skip YEARS of trial and error with the detailed tutorials inside the UGC Mastercourse. Within the next 30 days, you’ll learn: 

The 6 types of UGC videos brands ask for (+ how to create them) 
How to *actually* write a UGC script that gets watched on repeat (storytelling, hooks, scripting 101 – you get it all with homework-style worksheets to refine your skills) 
The technicalities that go into creating high-quality UGC videos (without a professional camera setup)
Easy-to-capture pictures & videos shot list that you can repeat for *every* UGC delivery
The exact video editing workflow I use (+ a handy CapCut tutorial)

☝️All this is on top of how to research, pitch, and negotiate brand deals with your UGC prices (I’ll help you find those too!)

That’s how complete the UGC Mastercourse ™ is. 

You definitely can *if* you’re okay with endless hours sifting through videos, figuring out which ones are even worth your time.

But if you’re the type who loves structured learning coming from an expert who’s been in the game for 7+ years (me!) under a proposed set timeline (30 days in this case) — the UGC Mastercourse was designed exactly for you. 

Not to mention — you’re more likely to stick to your goals when you have the right community for accountability. UGC Mastercourse comes with 1-year access to our Facebook Group, where experienced moderators and I meet you with answers to every “how to” question you might have. Not something a free YouTube video can provide, right? 

The UGC Mastercourse is much more than online lessons: it's a complete program with every resource you need to go from zero to a successful UGC creator in as fast as 30 days.

I love this question! Before I answer it, you should know 3 things about me:

I’ve been a full-time travel creator since 2017. 
I’ve signed $1M+ contracts to create content for brands, starting before content creation was even called UGC.
I am an experienced coach & mentor with over 5,000 students in my programs

All this to say, UGC Mastercourse is NOT: 

❌ A random course created by someone with little experience in the world of content creation. 


✅ Every video lesson inside the UGC Mastercourse comes from my experience of working with brands for 7+ years and creating a 7-figure business out of it. Plus my 4+ years of experience coaching my students on countless UGC deals.

Especially with my background as a full-time creator ➡️Best believe that you’ll easily outsmart your competition with the insider info on algorithms, brand collabs, and business-building. Plus, you’ll create UGC videos with advanced-looking filming and scripting skills (gatekept by the best creators in the industry) – which gets you hired *on repeat* by brands. A solid competitive advantage, don’t you think?

❌ A bunch of hard-to-implement videos thrown at you to figure out on your own


✅With UGC Mastercourse, you get a) max 8 minutes long actionable videos b) a 30-day goal tracker worksheet that’s divided into 1-hour sprints c) 1 year of access to a private Facebook community for accountability and support. We’ll build your new side hustle with flexibility – together.

❌ A course that teaches you the technical side of UGC with no business hand-holding and vice-versa. 

✅ The UGC Mastercourse is a sweet medium for both the creation and business side of a UGC career. You’ll learn how to master, monetize, and scale your UGC content creation skills – all in 30 days. 

When you join the UGC Mastercourse, you will get immediate access to Modules 0, 1, 2, and 3. These modules contain everything you need to build the skills required to be a successful UGC creator. I really want you to take your time to hone the skills you need to be successful. Rushing is not a good strategy when it comes to UGC!

The second part of the course, which is all about UGC monetization, will be dripped 14 days after you start the course (10 am PT). Once modules are unlocked, you will receive an email notification from our course platform (title: "Catarina Mello Courses: new content is available for you"). Just click on it, and it will take you directly to the dripped module.

After a module is available, you have lifetime access to it and can watch it as often as you like.

Yes, really. Obviously, it won't happen if you don't put it in the work. But if you do, the UGC Mastercourse ™ is *really* a step-by-step blueprint that hands you the answers to: 

 “What kind of UGC videos should I create?”
 “What should I charge for it?”
“How do I make myself stand out in a sea of other other UGC creators?”
“How to write & film videos that are actually loved by brands?”
“How to create a portfolio when I have zero experience with brands?”
“How to find brands that *actually* want to work with UGC creators like me?”
“What’s the right way to pitch brands so they read it?”
“How do I create my UGC business?”
“How should I take my UGC business to the next level?”

Imagine all of that ☝️ broken down into smaller goals within a 30-day tracker sheet

Plus, a community to ask those remaining “how do I do [insert your doubt]?” questions. 

A catch-all formula for landing that first UGC collab, don’t you think?

BUT (and that’s a big BUT) – it requires a fair bit of commitment from you. Which brings me to ⬇️

It’s NOT a necessity, no. There are plenty of successful UGC creators who focus on: 

product-centric content
tutorials that only show their hands or 
visually stunning imagery that doesn't require them to be on camera.

However, showing your face can be a powerful way to connect with people on a deeper level. Connection drives sales – which is, ultimately, what brands hire you for. 

With the UGC Mastercourse, you’ll learn to film videos that are both face and faceless. Then, you can choose the one that feels authentic to YOU and pitch it!

Lots. I will be hanging out regularly inside the FB community (to which you’ll have 1-year access to, btw), so all your issues are resolved asap.

Plus, we also have 2 community managers (both professional creators with extensive UGC experience who have been through my courses) who chime in with their takes without fail.

Not to mention, by signing up for this cohort of the UGC Mastercourse ™, you get two exclusive Founding Members-only LIVE Q&A session so you can ask all the remaining “yeah but” doubts you might have.

Plus, a chance for your UGC portfolio audited by me! 

Whether you’re seeking advice from people who’ve done it before or accountability to keep you on track with your goals → all you have to do is ask.

It’s not a requirement but I’ll teach you how to create one. This is why. 

Your Instagram is your online storefront. And because of that, it helps brands to reach out to you (if you’ve optimized your page – which I’ll teach you).

PLUS it also serves as your digital portfolio. Imagine if brands could see your work in live action? This how brands are wowed by you. 

But you DON’T need any followers to start landing those brand deals because brands require your UGC videos to post on their page, not yours!

Down the line, if and when you grow your audience followers, you can leverage your platform from a creator’s POV. I’ll teach you how to do that too with the UGC Mastercourse ™. 

NO. That’s what this course is for.

You’ll learn how to make videos for brands using only your phone. And then, you’ll learn how to arrange a professional set-up with $0 equipment so you can deliver flawless videos.

Plus, I’ll hand you every insider info on how to research, pitch, and negotiate with brands so you can land your first UGC gig as soon as 30 days.

Not to mention the 1-year community access to our private Facebook group and templates for portfolio, contracts, and invoices — so your business is practically taken care of.

UGC isn’t a get-rich-quick scheme. Which means over the next 30 days…

✅ You *will* have to get crafty to find 10 minutes of your workday to watch one video. Then another 30 minutes to check off the easy tasks attached to your 4-week UGC Career Launch Planner.

✅ You *will* have to trade in a few Netflix binge sessions for Canva play sessions so you can build your portfolio, contract, and invoice from the templates inside the course.

✅You *will* have to really push past your “I can’t do this because __” beliefs so you can finally create that extra income (& flexibility!) in your current routine.

That’s the kind of “let’s frickin’ go” dedication the UGC Mastercourse requires (which is roughly 1 hour a day for the first 30 days!)

YES! I want you to sign up risk-free. You have 14 days to check out the first three modules of the course (modules 0, 1 and 2). If by the end of module 2 you think UGC isn't for you, or you aren't satisfied with the course, then simply reach out to support@catarinamello.com. I’ll insist on giving you a full refund. You can find all the complete details in our Terms & Conditions on this page.

As a Founding Member, you unlock: 

Special price of the course that’ll never be repeated again (it’ll go up significantly next time it opens for enrollment!) 
2 exclusive LIVE Q&A Session with me to ask away your questions 
Exclusive LIVE PORTFOLIO audits of 5 people 
Tight-knit community (because the doors close soon!)
