User-generated content (UGC), often referred to as consumer-generated content, is the secret sauce in the recipe for a brand’s success. Crafted not by influencers but by your loyal customers, it’s the real, unfiltered magic that shapes your brand narrative. At Faulhaber, we see UGC as more than just content; it’s a powerful tool for transforming brands.

From images to videos, reviews, testimonials, and podcasts, UGC takes on various shapes. These authentic expressions fuel both organic and paid social efforts, enhancing your brand’s presence and powering high-performing campaigns.

So, what is the impact of UGC?
