    • From $20 to $20K Per Month: Her Fiverr Strategy with Musician Turned Creator @TheUGCCreatorOlivia (Olivia Castriota) | EP 36
      Jan 21 2026

      What if the skills you already have are exactly what you need to build a UGC business, you just haven't connected the dots yet?

      Host Nate Flake sits down with Olivia Castriota to break down how she went from being new to UGC to consistently making $20,000 a month by leveraging skills she already had.

      She didn't start as a UGC creator. She was a musician writing songs for TV shows, stuck in an industry where getting paid took eight months or longer.

      When she saw a TikTok about UGC, she realized her years of making music videos had already taught her everything she needed: how to be comfortable on camera, understand lighting, and tell a story visually.

      Within two weeks, she bought a course, set up her Fiverr gigs, and started landing clients at $20 a video.

      Chapters:
      00:04:45 - The Fiverr Switch That Skyrocketed Orders
      00:05:32 - 100 Reviews in 2 Months
      00:06:00 - The $20 to $125 Rate Jump Panic
      00:06:31 - Ad Fees Changed Everything
      00:09:19 - The “Pitch 10 Brands” Myth Gets Called Out
      00:15:34 - Fiverr’s Biggest Problem: Zero Search, Too Much Chaos
      00:18:18 - Scam Reality Check and Why New Sellers Get Targeted
      00:24:38 - Camera Confidence
      00:34:05 - Why X Became Her Best Lead Source
      00:42:19 - Worst Gig vs Best Gig

      She doesn't sugarcoat it. She talks about doing a hundred videos in two months to build reviews, raising her rates even when it felt terrifying, and why your first three months are basically paid training.

      Olivia shares the production secrets most creators never think about like how matching your clothing to both the product and your skin tone can make or break a video, or why breaking a script into single-line takes with action beats makes everything easier.

      Press play and learn how tiny shifts that separate okay content from work that brands want to pay for again and again.

    • UGC Sidehustle: How Triplet Mom Makes Over $3,000 a Month Working Full-Time with “House of jen UGC” - Jen Cochnauer | EP 36
      Jan 14 2026

      Ever wonder if your whole family could actually make money creating content together or if that's just internet hype?

      Nate sits down with Jen Cochnauer. She started UGC in July. She'd never even heard the term before. Five months later, she's pulling in $2-4k extra each month while working full-time in corporate healthcare and she's doing it with her husband and four kids, including triplets.

      You'll hear how she navigated Fiverr gigs, convinced her skeptical husband, got her kids comfortable on camera, and started landing inbound work from brands who can't resist the triplet factor.

      Chapters:

      04:02 - Family to a Fiverr
      06:01 - Ditching the Teleprompter
      08:30 - Landing the First Family Job with the Triplets
      11:18 - Raising Rates
      19:30 - How X Replies Turn Into Email Inbounds
      20:50 - Working Full-Time While UGC Explodes
      22:00 - When to Pause Outreach and Start Saying No
      31:03 - The VA Problem: Follow-Ups Are Where Money Gets Lost
      33:30 - The Dream Gig vs The Nightmare Client
      41:30 - The 2026 UGC Family Expansion Plan

      Jen's approach is refreshingly honest, she prints scripts, overshoots B-roll, and still struggles with follow-up. She's figuring it out in real time, just like you.

      If you've ever hesitated to involve your partner or kids in UGC because it feels complicated, this episode breaks down the practicalities: how much to pay your kids, how to price family work, and why raw footage jobs beat full edits when you're juggling a day job.

      You'll also get the uncomfortable truth about pricing, if brands aren't pushing back on your rates, you're leaving money on the table.

      Jen's story proves you don't need to be a content pro or quit your job to make this work. You just need to start, lean into what makes your family unique, and charge what you're actually worth.

      Press play and learn exactly how to turn family time into paid work without sacrificing your sanity.

    • Zero Followers, Zero Experience - How I Built a Six Figure UGC Business Starting on Fiverr | EP 35
      Jan 7 2026

      Ever sat at your desk wondering if there's more to life than climbing the corporate ladder?

      Host Nate Flake gets it. He spent 11 years in tech, earned an MBA, and worked his way up to positions at companies like Intuit - only to realize the golden handcuffs weren't worth it.

      Nate pulls back the curtain on his entire UGC journey. From that awkward first video to crossing $140,000 on Fiverr alone, he walks you through the messy middle that most coaches skip over.

      Chapters:
      04:55 – Feeling Invisible in Big Tech
      06:28 – Side Projects as Survival
      08:35 – The Corporate Breaking Point
      09:43 – The Bed That Changed Everything
      11:30 – First Steps Into UGC
      13:23 – Landing the First Brand Deal
      15:12 – Getting Comfortable on Camera
      17:21 – Why Fiverr Was the Entry Point
      20:30 – Raising Rates and Scaling Fast
      24:28 – Why Followers Don’t Matter
      31:30 – Buying Back Time With a Course
      34:56 – Choosing Freedom Over Stability

      He talks about the moment his friend Tammy convinced him to try UGC, the nine days of radio silence before his first client, and how he juggled a demanding corporate job while building a side hustle that eventually replaced his income.

      If you're stuck in a job that pays well but drains your soul, this episode gives you a practical roadmap. Nate breaks down how he validated UGC could work before quitting, why he started on Fiverr instead of pitching brands, and how he manages being a present dad while running a full-time creator business.

      He also challenges the myth that you need to match your corporate salary dollar-for-dollar - because freedom, flexibility, and unlimited PTO have real value too.

      The biggest shift happens when Nate explains what finally pushed him to quit. It wasn't just about money. It was about looking around at other UGC creators and realizing they had something he didn't: time with their families, control over their schedules, and genuine happiness.

      Press play if you've been waiting for a sign to start UGC or take it seriously, this is it.
