In today’s episode, I’m breaking down my full Q1 income as a content creator—every deal, every brand, where it came from, and how much I charged. And the best part? I did this working part-time hours.

We’re talking UGC, brand deals, paid stays, inbound leads, and how this all adds up to a $10K+ quarter… without grinding 24/7.

Let’s get into it.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • How I made $10,420 in Q1 as a UGC content creator
  • The exact breakdown of brand deals, deliverables, and pricing
  • Where my deals came from (inbounds, returning clients, pitching)
  • How I structure ad usage + monetization in my contracts
  • Why I don’t do UGC full-time—and how I still make great money
  • The role of paid stays + gifted experiences in your income
  • My average hourly rate (this might surprise you 👀)

Let’s Talk Numbers (Because I Know You Want Them):

  • January: $2,870 (+ a gifted resort stay)
  • February: $3,175
  • March: $4,375
  • Total Q1 Income: $10,420
  • Avg. Hourly Rate: ~$110/hour

Working ~8 hours/week.
