Our Founders

Meet the passionate individuals who founded categorythcatalo with a mission to make professional landing pages accessible to small projects everywhere.

Our Story

categorythcatalo was born in 2020 from a simple observation: small projects and startups often struggle to find affordable, high-quality landing page solutions. Founders Michael Chen and Jessica Martinez met while working at a digital agency in Chicago, where they noticed a significant gap in the market.

After years of seeing small businesses struggle with expensive web development costs, Michael and Jessica decided to create a company that would make professional landing pages accessible to everyone. They started working from a small office in Chicago's West Loop, combining Michael's technical expertise with Jessica's design background.

The first year was challenging but rewarding. They worked with local startups, helping them establish their online presence. Word spread quickly about their quality work and affordable pricing. By 2022, they had expanded their team and moved to their current location at 1016 W Jackson Blvd.

Since our founding, we've remained committed to delivering exceptional value. Every landing page we create reflects our dedication to quality, attention to detail, and understanding of what small businesses truly need to succeed online.
