We asked a few creators using Bento to tell us about their content journey: what they do, what’s changed for them since using the platform, and why it’s been helpful. If you're trying to land more partnerships or make content creation more sustainable, here’s what they had to say:
UGC creator, travel blogger & virtual assistant
“[I] was averaging 30 pitches a month…and didn’t land any deals. I’ve been in the VA program for less than a month and have signed 2 contracts and continue to get brand responses every day.”
“The VA program has been a game-changer; it’s hands down the best investment I’ve made this year. I’ve already 4×’d my investment within the first month, and it’s made the pitching process less overwhelming and way more efficient.”
Favorite deal from Bento?
“Brutus Broth has been my favorite deal so far!”
Full-time creator, former director of admissions & marketing
“I love Bento because as a full time creator who barely has the time each day to get through filming... I do not have the time to consistently pitch to brands and especially no time to follow up. And Bento does all of that for me.”
“It’s a huge weight off of my shoulders knowing it’s being done for me and I’ll have consistent work because of it.”
“a parenting app called tinybeans”
Part-time creator & hospital receptionist
“I just got my first paid brand deal via Bento (and via pitching).”
“Not having to search for brands, their emails (!!!), and reminding myself of sending regular follow ups have been a blessing and a big change in my UGC business.”
“I am so happy with my brand deal with HumanCharger as it is my first!!”
Part-time creator & events specialist
“As a creator who still works full-time, pitching was put on the back burner for a long time. I was starting to miss out on opportunities.”
“I landed my wedding dress on Bento & Allegiant Airlines to promote their airline and new resort.”
Full-time creator, mom of 2, & former food stylist
“I love Bento because it decreases my workload while upping my productivity!”
“Rosy Soil, because it was a dream brand!”
Part-time creator, physical therapist & nutritionist
“[Bento] gives me exposure and outreach to the brands that I never would have known. I literally paid for my annual subscription in 1 brand deal. Really mind blowing.”
