CAGreat platform for creating UGC content for brands! Our experience with Billo has been great so far. We would suggest that there would be an option as a drop down to choose creators based on their expertise, such as automotive, motorsports, outdoors etc. This would help streamline the process of making sure that we choose the correct creator based on our specific needs. We would also suggest that perhaps there was a "contact creator" option before choosing them to ensure that they are in fact, the correct fit for our content.

GBExperience as a brand owner utilizing…not good. Experience as a brand owner utilizing billo since 2023 has been less than desirable. We've prepaid credit, my mistake, but figured we'd generate a bunch of content all at once, no problem. First set of videos were decent. 2 months later we go back to get more videos made, they purposely hide your prepaid credit code, so at checkout I assumed I'd be able to find it but to no avail. For the sake of time and awaiting customer support, we went ahead and 'purchased' the video project assuming support would be competent to help refund or credit the difference based on our prepaid credit. No dice, essentially robbing us of another couple hundred dollars. Such a bad taste in our mouth, we still have a couple thousand dollars left of pre paid credit, now we're in 2024 we're going to go back and use up all of our credit just to get it over with. Funny enough, they've now programmed to put the prepaid credit amount at check out, I'm sure due to similar complaints. We've already decided to never use billo once we're done using the remaining credits. There are limited creators on the platform and they are paid only a fraction of what Billo takes home. Content creators will be better off making videos off platform than giving such a big cut to Billo. Great concept, extremely poor execution and retention practices.

GBA must in 2023 for businesses Honestly, if you're not using billo in your business you're missing out. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say most businesses don't have someone who can, will or wants to get on camera and the people you find here are THE camera people you need for your business. There are so many positives here I am afraid to even list them all out.

GBI’ve been very happy with Billo I’ve been very happy with Billo. I’ve been connected with several brands and creating content for great products I can really get behind. I’m getting to discover new and exciting products, create UGC videos, and getting paid by the brand for my content.

GBI’ve hired 5 creators from Billo I’ve hired 5 creators from Billo, and will not hire any more. Too many hoops to jump through to really get what you need. There’s always some catch to why they really can’t help you with what you need. Do not pay extra for “premium” creators, as they are no better than the others from my experience. You must be super specific in exactly what you want in your video. Do not give a creator free rein to “show their creativity” or you will get burnt. You will need to write out the script for them to follow verbatim, otherwise, you’re stuck with whatever they decide to say. If you don’t list absolutely everything in the project “brief” (like writing the exact script for them to read), you will NOT be allowed to request any edits. I paid for 2 edit requests, however I did not receive any. Reason being that I didn’t specifically direct the creator to NOT say a specific comment they made in the video. How would I know they would make that comment? Just ridiculous… how would I know they’d come up with a statement about our product that is not true? So, we’re out $375 since the video we received is not usable. I would recommend finding a different source for your videos.
