How to pick a UGC agency for a product brand
Price per usable video, not per video. Count the subscription, the marketplace fee, add-ons and revisions. A $99 video with paid hooks and edits can cost twice that.
Read the usage rights. Some platforms include perpetual rights; others license content for a set use or keep copyright with the creator.
Match the model to your team. Marketplaces need someone to brief and approve. Managed agencies do it for you and charge for it.
