We were lucky to catch up with Ava Soto recently and have shared our conversation below.
Ava, appreciate you joining us today. We’d love to go back in time and hear the story of how you came up with the name of your brand?
When I first made my Instagram account, I know I wanted my name to be included in there, but Ava Soto seems too common. I thought about what I would be doing as a future UGC Creator and knew it would involve media creation for brands. That was the first lightbulb moment. I know whatever I named my business, it would also include my name in someway. Ava seems too common among girl names. However, I remembered that my dad would always call me Aves when I was younger. My business name came to life. I officially named it avesxmedia, where I satisfy brands with their advertising needs!
Ava, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
My name is Ava and I am a rising UGC (user generated content) creator in the marketing industry. My goal is to bring companies visions to life. In other words, provide the service that companies struggle with or have no time for because let’s be real, it’s a lot of work! Over the last year, I have learned how to film, edit, and advertise content to big audiences to help companies make sales. I’ve always had a passion for helping other people, but also a passion the whole marketing industry. When I came across UGC about a year ago, that’s when I really started taking my future seriously. I do my best to post every day on my Instagram and respond to emails as much as possible. When people ask me to do a project, I’m very flexible, communicative, and creative. I don’t just make content, I make sure it’s my best work possible to give to a company. My plan in the next few years is to grow my business while I’m in college. I want people to know that when they choose to work with me, they won’t regret the service they get! I not only bring your product to life, but I also like building relationships with brands so that each of us can grow. I’m always happy to work with brands multiple times and give any marketing services possible. If you’re reading this and are looking for a reliable and effective UGC creator, please don’t hesitate to reach out, I got your back!
What’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative in your experience?
That feeling once your project gets published for the entire world to see. It’s a feeling of joy and excitement! When I finish projects ranging from videos to posts, I feel so grateful that a company chose to work with me. However, when that final project gets shown to everyone and as a bonus, receives great feedback, it’s overwhelmingly amazing. I always love looking back at my creations. It’s great to see how far you have grown and also how you can improve your work! Remember, even at your highest level, there is always room for improvement!
What’s been the best source of new clients for you?
Through my journey, Instagram has been my main platform. It’s a great way to not only generate views on your content, but also get people to reach out to you! I’ve work with brands who have really enjoyed what I have made and ask to work with me. When doing this, I always tell people BE AWARE OF SCAMS. I’ve fallen into this trap before and trust me, it stinks. Check to make sure the DM or email is legit. I always email the brand or person to make sure they are actively trying to contact me. Once all is approved, then let the journey begin!
