Launch stage

Using energy drink UGC for a new brand launch

If you have UGC sitting in a folder, you are wasting your best asset for building trust. At launch, you need social proof to convert new customers. A managed content network allows you to put all that unused UGC to work by distributing it across many pages. This gives your brand a groundswell of authentic visibility that helps turn skeptics into early adopters.

The problem

Energy drinks brand, launch stage: UGC sits unused in a folder.

01

The problem of unused assets

As a new brand, you are likely collecting content from early fans, friends, or influencers. But if that content just sits in a folder, it is doing nothing for your growth. You are missing out on the one thing that helps new brands sell: social proof. You need to show your customers that other people are actually using and enjoying your product. The problem is you do not have a way to display this to a large, relevant audience.

02

The power of distributed social proof

A managed content network is a set of many brand-owned Instagram pages for example fifty pages like brand.daily or brand.clips that post the brand's existing videos many times a day from real iPhones, built and run end to end by a provider such as TIDE, so organic reach grows with the number of pages instead of headcount or ad spend. This lets you put your UGC into the feeds of potential customers, building instant trust and authority.

03

How the math changes

Instead of waiting for people to visit your main account, you bring the proof to them. When users see your product in organic videos across different pages, they perceive your brand as being everywhere. This social proof is a powerful driver of conversion, and because it is already produced, it costs you nothing extra to deploy. You are effectively recycling your best content into a continuous, high-volume marketing engine that builds your launch brand presence organically.

04

What to send the provider

Sort your UGC into categories, such as taste tests, gym scenes, and lifestyle clips. Send all of these to the provider for integration into the network. Tell them to rotate these clips across the pages so the content feels fresh and diverse. Use your own tracking links on these posts to see which pieces of UGC lead to the highest conversion. This will help you identify what your audience loves most and guide your future creator partnerships.
