Typically, a UGC creator is responsible for producing high-quality, authentic videos or photos based on a specific brand brief, but they do not necessarily post this content to their own social media channels.

Because UGC is designed to look like native content from a real user, it often performs better than traditional studio ads. When you receive your content, ensure you have the proper usage rights outlined in your agreement so you can repurpose the videos for your website, email newsletters, or whitelisted ad campaigns. This flexibility is what makes UGC such a powerful tool for Latin American brands aiming to build trust and community.\n\nIf your strategy specifically requires a creator to post the content to their own followers, this is generally categorized as influencer marketing rather than pure UGC.
