Hi there! I'm Caitlin, a Midwest twenty-something, content creator since 2015, and the owner of two small businesses. Whether you're a small business owner, a blogger, a TikToker, an influencer, or some other title, I'm excited to help your content creation succeed!

★ My Story ★
I studied PR at Purdue University back when social media and blogs were a new thing. I delved into learning more about social media, the various algorithms, affiliate marketing, and how to best utilize each platform, learning through trial and error on my own blog and socials. A little over a year year after graduating in 2016, I'd gone from the cornfields of Purdue to sitting front row at New York Fashion Week!

In 2017, I started working with creators, bloggers and small business owners to create strategic social media plans alongside affiliate marketing. Through working with my small biz clients on their social media, I decided that I wanted to open a small business of my own, merging my work with social media and affiliate marketing as well as my blog work into a digital agency that I planned to open in 2020.

Then, of course... the pandemic hit. Despite the cards being stacked against me, I opened my agency, Curio Five. My background in digital advertising, social media, and influencer marketing has helped my new business succeed, as well as many of my clients' small businesses and influencer businesses that launched during the pandemic. I know that not everyone can afford to outsource content creation and affiliate marketing - which is where my Etsy shop comes in!

★ Why C5? ★
I've worked at one of the world's largest marketing companies, built an influencer business that's been featured in Business Insider and HuffPost, and now own two other small businesses. I know the digital marketing industry inside and out - as a social media manager, as an influencer, and as a small business owner.

I've created the small business owner and creator templates as resources on my Etsy shop so that you can take the information I've learned, mistakes I've made, and tactics I've used successfully over the past 4+ years, and implement them in your own business! A rising tide lifts all ships, and I truly believe that one small business' success will only help the others to succeed.
