Miappi for Hootsuite Video Walkthrough
What Are The Benefits of Reposting UGC?
When reposted to owned channels, Miappi has found that in some cases, reposted UGC can see as much as 7x the engagement (likes and comments) of non-UGC posts.
Reposting rights-approved UGC is the simplest and quickest way to get your most influential UGC seen by many and influence potential customers who might not otherwise see it.
What Other Ways Can I use UGC in my Marketing?
It is because marketing with User-Generated Content is one of the most trusted forms of advertising, that brands are licensing and republishing their favourite UGC to other marketing channels.
These channels include:
- Reposting to owned social media accounts
- Displaying via a web page gallery
- Adding to ecommerce websites
- Adding to digital signage
- Adding to paid digital advertising (video or display)
