Description

If you’re still chasing perfect social media content, it’s time to rethink your UGC strategy. In this episode, I break down why messy is beautiful—and why your next best-performing content might be lopsided, amateur, and absolutely relatable.

I share insights from my chat with Ben Rapson of King Arthur Baking about how their community thrives on imperfect, authentic content. Plus, I walk you through four ways to spark user-generated content that actually builds trust and drives conversions.

By the end of this episode, you’ll know how to:

  • Reframe your UGC brief to invite authenticity
  • Create low-barrier prompts your audience loves
  • Celebrate progress instead of perfection
  • Track and nurture repeat contributors to grow superfans

Your audience doesn’t want to be impressed, they want to be included. Let’s turn your UGC into a true loyalty engine.
