You’ll know how to pitch, what to charge, and how to land deals. Some students may book a paid deal during the program—others will finish with everything they need to land their first one soon after.
About Mai
Hey—I’m Mai. I’m a Canadian expat, full-time traveler, and YouTube content creator living in Vietnam. I’ve worked with hotels, lifestyle brands, and tourism boards across Asia, creating UGC they actually use.
This program is everything I wish I had when I started. It’s creative. It’s simple. And it’s built for real life.
You don’t need a huge audience. You just need a phone, a plan, and a little push.
Let’s get you your first stamp. Welcome to The UGC Passport.
