Melissa Gaglione ⭐️ — CEO
I built a $200K+ creator side hustle on LinkedIn from 0 to 40K followers in under 2 years. Now I help you do the same👇🏼 Most B2B professionals create great content but never get paid for it. I change that through Citrine Creator Accelerator and Citrine Talent Agency. Here's what I do: ✨For aspiring creators: The Creator Accelerator teaches you to position yourself as a paid creator, create branded content, and land your first $500-$3,000 partnership. After you graduate, you'll have an established portfolio, rate kit, network, and everything you need to land consistent brand partnerships. ⭐️ For established creators: Citrine Talent Agency takes over your partnership management. I renegotiate your rates, handle all contracts and payments, and advocate for you with brands using data! You just create content. My team does everything else from content strategy, timeline management and handling all comms. ❤️ Why creators work with me: I've been where you are. Posting casually about my corporate experience landed me my first brand partnership while I was an Account Executive. That deal funded side projects while I climbed to Head of Sales. 💵 In under two years, I generated over $200,000+ from LinkedIn brand partnerships, events, and services all while helping 30+ creators land their first deals, and proving that this model works. Now I'm scaling what worked for me: a system that trains and develops corporate creators AND represents them professionally. 💫The bigger picture: B2B creators are becoming the next wave of founders. Content creation is one of the most underrated ways to earn $2,000-$5,000+ per month. We're still early. 💰Our average creator: 12K followers, $3,000/month in brand income, full-time job intact. If you're ready to monetize your LinkedIn presence, consider applying to join an agency or accelerator. 📩 DM me or apply on our website! I'll review your application and see if the Creator Accelerator or Talent Agency is the right fit. melissa@citrinecreators.co
