How to get the most out of UGC.

This would help to improve trustworthiness by seeing real people loving your product.
Show people in real-life scenarios using/testing your product or service to inspire trust and credibility in your brand.
One of the main purposes of the UGC is to convey quality by obtaining real reviews for real people just like your buyers and possible shoppers!
