[2] PROBLEM SECTION — Agitate Their Pain

Chicago is full of world-class creatives, but too many are still:

  • Chasing visibility with no system to monetize it

  • Relying on Instagram algorithms to build real connection

  • Building alone, burning out, and missing their breakthrough

You’ve probably asked:
“Where are the resources? The platforms? The people who actually get it?”

And the truth?
They’ve always existed — just not in the same place. Until now.

CH$ was built because we were tired of gatekeeping, tired of being overlooked, and tired of watching talent go underfunded while the city gets copied and capitalized on.

You deserve a platform that speaks your language — and actually builds you up.
