🎁 The free door for each course you named
Linda Lin — UGC Bossgirl Bootcamp (sold at $1,297)
instagram.com/creativelylinda.co — her live profile carries a standing free offer: comment CLASSand the free 1-hour class, “How to Make Your First $1,000 doing UGC!”, is sent to you. It walks through the three mistakes that cost people UGC deals, and the three tips that actually land them.
The same free class hands you the whole kit: the Canva portfolio template, and the free brand-hunting tools — FYPM, the Meta Ads Library and the TikTok Ads Library.
Her free reel “5 steps to become a UGC creator in 4 weeks” is the bootcamp’s method in short form, in her own voice, at no cost.
Sofia Pati (she goes by “Sofia Chxarmela” too) — Tech UGC Creator Course
skool.com — The UGC Creator Society — free, 1.5k members, run by Sofia herself, and her own front page says it plainly: “free UGC education, no gatekeeping” and “What’s inside free:
Video lessons — the full Tech UGC foundation from scratch.”
What you walk out with, in her words: what Tech UGC is and how it pays, pitching skills that get you paid, and knowing the next step.
