What We'll Cover, Live

Step 01

How to get paid to make simple videos

What UGC actually is, how it differs from influencer work, and why brands pay everyday creators for footage, hooks, demos, testimonials, and simple product videos.

Step 02

How to position yourself so brands are happy to pay retainers

The shift from “I make content” to “I help brands make sales,” so you stop looking like a cheap creator and start looking like a monthly growth asset.

How to build a portfolio that gets you taken seriously

This is for you if…

  • You live in South Africa and want to get paid by brands for simple videos.
  • You thought you needed a big following, but you’re open to learning how UGC actually works.
  • You can film on your phone and want a beginner-safe path to your first paid content work.
  • You want to build a simple portfolio, find brands worth pitching, and know what to say.
  • You’ll do the reps: sample videos, outreach, follow-ups, and feedback.

This is not for you if…

  • You're looking for a get-rich-quick scheme with no effort.
  • You aren't willing to build something real over time.
  • You expect overnight results without learning a skill.
  • You want a hobby, not an income stream.
  • You're not ready to invest time in yourself.

Hi, I'm Jax

Jax, host of Creators Get Paid

I run creator and UGC campaigns for brands, so I’ve seen the part most beginners never get shown: what companies actually want when they pay for content.

It is usually not fame. It is not a perfect camera setup. Brands want videos they can post, test, run as ads, and use to sell more of what they already offer.

That is why Creators Get Paid is built around the practical side of UGC: choosing a lane, making brand-ready samples, building a simple portfolio, finding the right buyers, pitching without sounding desperate, and turning the first paid work into the next one.

If you’re in South Africa and want a real path into paid brand work without pretending to be an influencer, this training is where I’d start.
