Work With Me

I’m Kelly Whalen, the editor and owner of the Centsible Life. My site is a resource devoted to helping readers live the life of their dreams on a budget. The Centsible Life focuses on frugal fashion, healthy meal plans, money-saving ideas, personal finance basics, budget-friendly travel, and life on a budget.

Readers

Readers are the reason the site exists. The Centsible Life audience is made up of mainly women in their 20s-40s with middle- to high-income households. They are most often college educated and live all over the United States with a subset of readers in other countries including Canada, Australia, Europe, India, and more. Readers’ interests include a range of lifestyle topics from beauty and fashion to crafts and DIY.

Social Media Engagement

Social media isn’t just about followers and fans, it’s about truly engaging with your community. While the Centsible Life has a hearty follower base across social media that doesn’t tell the whole story. The real magic comes from our engagement. Below is a sample of our engagement on twitter and Facebook for 30 days.
