Dris Elamri - Meet The 18y/o Who Solved UGC Marketing (100M Views in 2 Weeks)

“Uh, it was kind of the the Snapchat format, and then we once like a like the same thing with formats, once it works, you just send it to other creators, see what works”

“so we talked to them, we told them about UGC, and we ended up getting them 100 million views in two weeks at sub-30-cent CPM. They were top 30 in the App Store”

“And when we started, we were like, "Methods is the UGC marketplace app." Um, and when we did that, no one really wanted to join, they were like, "Like what is UGC?" Uh, but we framed it as the new way to make money, make money online, everyone started joining.”

“I was just going on sales calls, we had no product, we had nothing like tangible that we could sell them on, um, and I would tell them, "We're going to get you a lot of views, we're going to get you users, and we're going to make you money."”

“And when users join our, or creators join our app, uh, we go through a a full onboarding where we actually give them $40 their first post, and they are instantly hooked.”

“from there, we provide like the exact scripts and example videos to use for UGC content, um, all the resources and how to warm up account, uh, warm up on an account, how to post like, uh, trial videos, how to actually make good UGC, how to like do lighting”

“basically, uh, someone joins, uh, TikTok or Instagram, and they see a Methods video, they go on our platform, and then they create even more Methods videos. It's like a, uh, in infinite user method.”

“a lot of our most successful formats are, uh, formats that have been taken from other companies in similar niches or completely different, or other like standalone creators, and we've adapted it for, uh, our own product, Methods, or other company's products.”

“It is always best to to have a solid foundation, start with a a few creators that are able to consistently, um, get you views, and after that, you can, I don't know, scale to to many more creators.”

“I realized I could take other people's videos of, uh, like recordings of like unboxing like real AirPods Maxes or, uh, uh, like yeah, different videos like showing the the real product. I would cut it up, I would pay someone on Fiverr $5 to do a voiceover, I would, uh I would add captions, and then I would post it on TikTok.”

“I had like a series where, uh, people would comment like, "Do you ship to this country?" And our like, uh, like our thing was we shipped to every country and like $5 international shipping, free shipping domestic”

“Even when I was making Minecraft YouTube Shorts, uh, I I think I spent 6 months with, um, like zero subscribers, zero views, and out of nowhere, uh, my post started blowing up, and I realized what was actually working, I doubled down on that”
