Stop figuring out UGC alone.
A small, hands-on space for Black creators going after their first paid brand deals. Gigs and leads, people starting where you are, and more channels opening soon, for the price of a coffee a month.
The hard part is rarely the filming.
It is the questions nobody answers. What should I charge? Is my pitch any good? Is this offer fair, or a trap? Guides help. A straight answer from someone who has been there helps more.
What your $3 gets you.
Gigs and leads
A channel for paid opportunities and rosters, shared with the pay and eligibility spelled out, right alongside the free job board.
A space built for us
A small room for Black creators starting out, where you can ask a question, share a draft or just see that you are not the only one figuring this out.
Peer pitch feedback
Trade pitch and portfolio notes with other members: share your spec videos, profile or pitch and get specific notes, not empty applause.
Honest about what this is.
What you will find
- Early and small, on purpose. You are joining a founding group, not a crowd of thousands.
- A working creator in the room. Started by Steph, who built this because nobody handed him the information.
- Straight answers over hype. If a rate is low or a deal looks off, you will hear it.
- People starting where you are. No experience or follower count needed to belong.
What it is not
- Not a guarantee. We cannot promise deals or income. We can promise honest numbers and a real person running the room.
- Not a course. It is a place to ask, share and get unstuck.
- Not a pitch factory. No guru, no upsell wall, no ten-step funnel.
Low on purpose. Not free on purpose.
Free communities fill up with people who never show up. A small price keeps the room full of people who do. That is $36 a year.
If one lead turns into a paid video, or one answer helps you ask for $50 more, the membership has paid for itself more than once.
That is an example, not a promise. Your results depend on your work and your pitches.
Come hang out in the Discord.
Our Discord is a small, free hangout. Say hi, see what other creators are up to, and trade UGC swag in #swag-swap. It is the lobby. The community is where the deeper help lives.
I'm Steph. Dad, federal project manager by day, UGC creator on early mornings and lunch breaks. I built BlackUGC because the barrier to starting was never talent. It was information nobody handed us.
The community is where I share what I am learning and where you can ask for what you need.
Before you join.
Do I need followers or experience?
No. If you are starting from zero, you are who this is for. You do not need a following to ask a question or share a draft.
Is the job board free?
Yes. The job board is free and stays free, with no membership required. The community adds the people around it.
Do I need the Weekend Kit to join?
No. They work well together, but you can join the community without buying the kit, and the kit without joining.
How do I join?
Click Join the community and follow the steps to set up your account. The membership is $3 a month.

It opened Friday, October 9, and you can join any time.
