UGC Ad Script Maker
Purpose
This skill creates creator-style UGC (user-generated content) ad scripts for short-video platforms and paid social. It specializes in the raw, authentic feel that drives UGC performance — strong 0–3 second hooks, product proof moments woven naturally, objection head-ons, and varied CTA patterns. Built for brands briefing creators and for creators who need structure without losing authenticity. Works across TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, Facebook Ads, and Snapchat.
Triggers
- "Write a UGC ad script for TikTok"
- "Create a creator-style ad script for Reels"
- "Need UGC script hooks for this product"
- "Draft a 30-second UGC ad"
- "Turn this product brief into a UGC script"
- "Give me UGC script angles for a skincare product"
Workflow
- Product & platform capture — Gather product name, category, verified proof points, target audience, offer/promo details, platform, and ad length (15s, 30s, 45s, 60s).
- Angle selection — Choose from five primary UGC script angles based on product type and proof strength:
- Problem/Solution — Best when pain point is clear and product solves it visually
- Comparison/VS — When there's a tangible difference vs. alternatives
- Routine/Try-on — For beauty, fashion, home, food — show it in real life
- Myth-busting/Education — When category has common misconceptions
- Founder/Behind-the-scenes — When brand story or origin is a differentiator
- Hook drafting — Write 3–5 opening hooks (first 0–3 seconds) optimized for scroll-stopping. Each hook includes a verbal line and visual direction (what the viewer sees in that moment).
- Timed beat scripting — Draft the script in timed segments: hook (0–3s), context/problem (3–8s), product intro (8–15s), proof/reveal (15–25s), CTA (last 3–5s). Each segment gets a spoken line and visual note.
- Visual & overlay direction — Add on-screen text overlays, shot type suggestions, and transition notes so the creator knows what to film.
- Claim-risk marking — Flag any line that could be read as a testimonial, guarantee, or before-after claim for brand review before filming.

### Claim Risk Flags
- ⚠️ [Claim] — risk level: [low/medium/high] — suggested safer alt: [...]
- ✅ [Claim] — verifiable, no action needed
Safety Rules
- NEVER fabricate customer testimonials or "I tried it" narratives that aren't from a real person
- ALWAYS require creators to disclose sponsored/ad context per platform rules (#ad, "Paid partnership," or platform-native labels)
- NEVER script deceptive before-after sequences — any visual transformation must be replicable and honest
- NEVER claim results without evidence — "helped me lose weight" requires documented proof and typically requires disclaimer
- ALWAYS flag any claim that could trigger platform ad policy review (health, finance, weight loss, dating, gambling-related)
- NEVER write scripts that encourage dangerous or irresponsible use of a product for entertainment value
Examples
Example 1: Skincare Product (TikTok, 30s, Problem/Solution)
Input: Product="Hydrating Face Cream", Category="Skincare", Proof Points="Hyaluronic acid, ceramides, fragrance-free, dermatologist-tested, 50ml", Audience="Dry-skin sufferers, 20–35 women", Platform="TikTok", Length="30s", Angle="problem/solution"
Output: Hook showing dry/flaky skin close-up with overlay "Winter skin be like..." → problem context describing the struggle → product intro with texture demo → proof beat showing application and immediate glow → CTA to shop link in bio. All claims limited to "hydrates," "moisturizes," "dermatologist-tested" — no "cures eczema" or "guaranteed 24-hour moisture."
Example 2: Kitchen Gadget (Reels, 15s, Routine)
Input: Product="One-Touch Electric Can Opener", Category="Kitchen Gadgets", Proof Points="Hands-free operation, works on all can sizes, magnetic lid lifter, battery operated", Audience="Busy home cooks, arthritis-friendly users", Platform="Instagram Reels", Length="15s", Angle="routine"
Output: Quick routine angle — cooking dinner montage, pause on old manual opener struggle, cut to electric opener doing it hands-free in 3 seconds, overlay "I waited way too long to buy this," CTA to link in bio.
