Companies wanting only raw footage

At the moment, I’m being approached by various companies that only want raw footage. That’s not necessarily a problem, but when they offer just a few dozen euros as compensation for it, that’s less appealing. With raw footage, companies can create endless amounts of content. How do you respond to this? For example: a company wants raw footage, 2 hooks, and offers 50 euros for it. They don’t specify what it will be used for or for how long... When I respond and indicate my rates, including extra fees for raw footage and usage rights, almost all companies back out. Is this because UGC (User-Generated Content) is still not well known in the Netherlands? Is it the companies themselves? Does this need to grow more in the Netherlands so that companies recognize its value?
