UGC vs influencer marketing
Both use real-looking people talking about your product. The difference is whose audience sees it.
The core difference
| UGC ads | Influencer posts | |
|---|---|---|
| Who sees it | The audience you pay to reach with ads | The influencer's followers |
| What you pay for | The video itself | Access to their audience |
| Where it runs | Your ad account | Their profile |
| Easy to test versions? | Yes, many versions | Usually one post |
When UGC ads fit
- You already run paid ads and need new creative often.
- You want to test many hooks for one product.
- You want to control who sees the ad.
When influencers fit
- You want the trust of a person their followers already know.
- You are launching and want word of mouth.
- Your product is easy to show in someone's daily life.
How Novads does it
- Paste your product link. The public page where your product is sold.
- The agent reads it. Product name, photos, price, what it does and who it is for.
- It makes the ads. UGC-style video ads with a real-looking person, picture ads with your product, and ad copy in your brand voice.
- You pick and post. Download the ads, or test several hooks against each other.
