A CITY GUIDE YOU GROW INTO. NOT OUT OF. ★
THE FOUNDATION
What’s in place when you step into a City Living Network guide.
WHAT’S INCLUDED:
YOU’VE DREAMED OF CREATING SOMETHING MEANINGFUL IN YOUR TOWN…
BUT TURNING THAT IDEA INTO SOMETHING REAL REQUIRES STRUCTURE. TRY TO START, IT FEELS STRUCTURE.
Not hustle. Not guesswork.
Just the right foundation in place.
THAT’S WHERE WE COME IN.
At City Living Network, the groundwork is already handled — from branding and editorial foundations to the systems that support growth over time.
You step into something built with intention, not urgency.
From there, the guide becomes yours.
Curating the places that define your city
Becoming a trusted local voice
Building thoughtful partnerships
Accessing opportunities that come from visibility and credibility
I’M LINDSAY,
FOUNDER OF CITY LIVING NETWORK
City Living Network began as a single city guide — built to be credible, community-rooted, and commercially viable without relying on trends or scale.
That original guide became the framework for what exists today: two dozen independently run city guides across the U.S., each owned and operated by a local editor using the same proven foundation.
CLN isn’t about building the biggest platform.
It’s about building the right one — designed to hold value, attract real partnerships, and grow with the city it represents.
FROM IDEA TO CITY PRO
HOW IT WORKS — IT’S EASY!
(In a nutshell… we build it, you make it the coolest thing in town!)

ONBOARDING
BRANDING + VISION
You’ll fill out a quick onboarding form, and we’ll get clear on your style, vibe, and goals. Then I’ll put together a custom mood board so we’re aligned visually from the jump.

Once everything is polished and approved, it’s time to launch your guide! You’ll also be invited to monthly coaching calls — plus, I’ll handle all backend updates and hosting so you can focus on growing your city’s presence and monetizing it confidently.

IS THIS WHERE YOU‘RE AT RIGHT NOW?
IF YOU’RE NODDING YES TO ANY OF THESE, YOU’RE IN THE RIGHT SPOT:
You’re craving more purpose, more visibility, and a platform that positions you as the expert in your community.
You’re excited about getting invited to cool stuff — VIP dinners, press trips, local events — and want to actually use your platform to open doors.
You want a step-by-step game plan that gets you launched without spiraling in Google searches or Canva chaos.
You love connecting people and hyping up your town — but you’re ready to turn that passion into something bigger.
You want your brand to look legit and polished, but figuring out the tech and strategy is just… too much.
You’ve got ideas for days — but when it’s time to launch, you burn out or stall trying to piece it all together.
