Why we built it
The Fat Monk Media Network is the working portfolio of Fat Monk Media — a Calgary marketing studio that builds story-driven worlds for its clients. We built the network as our own demonstration of the methodology we sell: audience persona, brand voice, six core stories, a content system, an AI concierge. Same bones we'd build for a client, just for ourselves first.
Reading the editorial side of the network is free — no paywall on the articles, no surveillance tracking, no Google Ads, no Meta pixels. Where we do make money is the marketplace + tools layer: Calgary Mentors keeps 15% of every booked session, calgaryhousepainting.com earns a referral fee when we connect a homeowner to a verified painter, and the newsletter occasionally runs a paid sponsorship clearly labeled as such. Editorial and commerce live on different surfaces by design — nothing you read here is trying to sell you something. If you like the system and want one built for your business, the studio is at fatmonkmedia.com.

Editorial standards
Every story on this site comes from a documented source: a venue record, a primary interview, a public document, or a reader submission that a human editor has reviewed. We make mistakes; when we do, we correct them publicly and date the correction.
AI assistance: We use AI tools to draft, translate, and accelerate editorial work. A human reviews everything before publication. The AI does not make editorial decisions.
