Why it works
CHI
Reach with a reason.
A large audience matters. A large audience concentrated in one market—and primed to discover—matters more.
People come to Bored in Chicago looking for recommendations. That means partner content can meet the audience in the same mindset that brought them to the account: curious, local, and ready to act.
Partnership products
Two ways in.
Both formats are paid collaborations shaped around fit, timing, and creative opportunity. Pricing is custom to the campaign.

The person behind the feed
Hi, I'm Cam.
I created Bored in Chicago to help people find the city experiences worth leaving the house for.
I love building original video concepts—from spending a full day getting off at every stop on a Chicago L crawl to finding food from every country in the world without leaving the city. I’ll work directly with you to find the idea that makes your business impossible to overlook, then turn it into a video Chicagoans genuinely want to watch, engage with, and experience for themselves.
