šŸ’ø Want More UGC Rehires? Do This...

How matching a brand’s visual vibe makes you unforgettable.

šŸ“¹ āœ… One of the fastest ways to get rehired by brands? Make your content look like it already lives on their feed — before they even ask.

Most UGC creators put their energy into scriptwriting, lighting, and jumping on trends (all super important). But here’s the overlooked magic trick: your visual language. When your content naturally matches a brand’s identity, it shows the marketing team you ā€œgetā€ them on a deeper level.

And here’s the thing: you don’t have to do this. You’ll still land jobs without it. But if you want to rise from ā€œgood creatorā€ to ā€œindispensable creator they can’t stop hiringā€? This is the move ā¬‡ļø ā¬‡ļø ā¬‡ļø

1. Keep Your Voice, Bend Towards Theirs

This isn’t about losing your authenticity. Brands hire you for your style and personality.

  • The trick: infuse your voice into their world.

  • If a skincare brand is clean, minimal, and pastel? Keep your natural storytelling style, but film with softer backgrounds and lighter tones.

  • If a streetwear brand is bold and high-energy? Maintain your delivery, but pair it with sharper edits and darker, more contrasting tones.

šŸ‘‰ Why it matters: Brands want creators who are flexible. They don’t want a copy-paste robot, but they do want someone who understands their vibe and audience and can translate their message into the brand’s voice.

2. Study Their Feed Like a Designer 🧐

Before you storyboard:

  • Scroll their Instagram, TikTok, and website.

  • Screenshot 6-9 posts and drop them into a mood board.

  • Look for patterns: Do they use muted tones? Sharp cuts? Selfie style? Lots of negative space?

šŸ‘‰ Why it matters: Brands spend a lot of time and money on brand identity. Showing that you can mirror their visual world signals that you’re not just creating content, you’re building assets that work inside their ecosystem.

3. Play With Brand Colours & Fonts (Without Overdoing It) šŸŽØ

You don’t need to colour-match every shot to a brand’s palette. But dropping subtle nods makes a huge difference.

  • Use props in brand colours (mugs, notebooks, towels).

  • Wear an outfit in their palette.

  • For text overlays, stick to fonts or styles they already use (if possible), but try to experiment with transitions and animations instead.

šŸ‘‰ Why it matters: Even subconscious alignment makes the content feel seamless in their feed. Marketing teams love when they don’t have to ā€œfixā€ your work to match their look. When they think the content looks great organically on their feed, you know you did it right!

4. Show Them What’s Possible ✨

When you deliver content that already looks like it belongs in their feed, you’re not just giving them a video - you’re pitching them a future. You’re showing them what it could look like if you were working together regularly. Don’t waste that first impression!

šŸ‘‰ Why it matters: The less friction you create for a brand, the more valuable you are. And when they see you can already ā€œthink like them,ā€ you’re first in line for rehiring.

āœ… Quick Creator Checklist

āœ”ļø Did I check the brand’s feed for tone, colours, and editing style?

āœ”ļø Does my video keep my authentic voice while bending towards their aesthetic?

āœ”ļø Are there subtle nods to their colours or design elements?

āœ”ļø Does this piece feel like it could already live in their feed?

šŸš€ Bottom Line

You don’t need to rebuild your style from scratch for every brand. But creators who can adapt their visual identity just enough to align with a brand’s DNA stand out.

It’s the difference between being hired for one-off projects… and becoming a go-to creator they keep coming back to.
