Channels: EGC (Employee-Generated Content)
Guides EGC and employee advocacy strategy for AI/SaaS products. EGC is content created by employees (social posts, videos, blogs, testimonials) that reflects authentic workplace and product insights. Employee-shared content generates ~8x more engagement than brand posts; LinkedIn employee posts reach ~561% more than brand content.
When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1-2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.
Initial Assessment
Check for project context first: If .claude/project-context.md or .cursor/project-context.md exists, read it for product, audience, and brand voice.
Identify: 1. Goal: Brand trust, thought leadership, recruitment, or conversion 2. Platform: LinkedIn (B2B primary), X, Instagram, TikTok 3. Employee base: Size, roles, existing social presence
EGC vs. UGC vs. Creator Program
| Dimension | EGC | UGC | Creator Program |

| Trust | Company experts (66% vs 47% for ads) | Peer reviews | Influencer reach |
| Cost | Low; leverage workforce | Incentives, curation | Credits, payment |
| Best for | B2B, SaaS, professional services | Social proof, reviews | Content scale, tutorials |
Why EGC Works
- Algorithm favor: Social platforms prioritize personal accounts over brand pages
- Authenticity: 92% trust recommendations from individuals over branded content; 81% need to trust before buying
- B2B fit: LinkedIn is primary; employees share industry expertise and product insights
- Results: 27% engagement increase, 19% sales increase in first year; 24% higher conversion vs traditional content
