TechTrend’s UGC-Powered Launch: 1M+ Views for a New Wearable

Challenge

TechTrend needed engaging, authentic content to build hype for their product launch, drive pre-orders, and establish credibility in a crowded market. Their goal was to create a buzz on YouTube and TikTok, where their audience consumed tech content, while keeping production costs low and turnaround fast.

Solution

TechTrend joined our platform’s Pro Plan ($299/month) to access 50,000+ vetted creators and priority support. They used our advanced search filters to identify 20 tech-savvy creators with expertise in unboxing videos, tutorials, and product reviews, focusing on those with engaged audiences in the fitness and tech niches. The campaign brief asked creators to produce unboxing videos, feature the tracker in daily routines, and highlight its unique features (e.g., heart rate monitoring, sleek design).

Our platform’s real-time analytics and collaboration tools enabled TechTrend to manage the campaign efficiently. Creators received product samples and clear guidelines, ensuring content aligned with the brand’s vision while maintaining authenticity. The platform’s licensing feature allowed TechTrend to repurpose UGC for their website, email campaigns, and paid ads on YouTube.

2. Content Creation: Creators delivered 25 unboxing videos, 15 tutorials, and 10 short-form TikTok clips over four weeks. Content focused on real-world use cases, like tracking workouts or sleep.

3. Campaign Management: TechTrend used the platform’s dashboard to approve content, request minor edits (e.g., emphasizing battery life), and track performance metrics in real time.

4. Distribution: UGC was shared on TechTrend’s YouTube channel, TikTok account, and website. Top-performing videos were boosted with paid ads, targeting fitness enthusiasts.
