The Opportunity

A Two-Fold Campaign Approach
Built for Rainbow Families

There are a variety of ways in which we can market to LGBTQ+ families — from intending parents researching adoption, IVF and surrogacy to established two-mom and two-dad households buying everything from diapers to college funds. Partner with Pink Media for the most comprehensive yet targeted reach into the highly-coveted LGBTQ+ consumer, with a focus in the world of LGBTQ+ Family & Parenting. Our campaigns are two-fold.

First, we focus on getting your message and story out to a hyper-targeted LGBTQ+ audience online via traditional online advertising, mobile apps, video advertising, and more. Second, we get your message out via strategically-placed social media posts, both organically and utilizing paid social media advertising — tapping into the strong LGBTQ+ family-and-parenting communities on Facebook, LinkedIn, Threads, X and more.

This includes both social media hyper-targeted advertising and our #ILoveGay Network, now reaching over 1.5 million LGBTQ+ followers — where parent groups are among the densest trust networks in the community. With 63% of LGBTQ+ millennials planning to grow their families (Family Equality), the funnel keeps compounding — and our success metrics are based on the visibility and performance we provide: impressions, reach, click-throughs, and engagement.

Our Campaign Framework

Part One + Part Two.
Complete LGBTQ+ Family Coverage.

A comprehensive strategy that reaches rainbow families through paid advertising channels AND organic social amplification — simultaneously.

Part One
Hyper-Targeted Digital Advertising

We focus on getting your message and story out to a hyper-targeted LGBTQ+ audience online via traditional online advertising, mobile apps, video advertising, and more.

On the programmatic ad exchange, we layer family & parenting data selects — intending parents, life-event triggers, household composition — onto LGBTQ+ websites, and geo-target down to the ZIP code around clinics, school districts, and event weeks.

For advanced placements, we utilize Automatic Content Recognition (ACR) technology — securing premium inventory to serve impressions specifically within LGBTQ+ family households on all smart devices, including Connected TVs (CTV), the family-household screen.

Part Two
LGBTQ+ Family Social Community Amplification

We tap into the online conversations and communities on your brand's behalf — amplifying your content, your social posts, your videos and more within LGBTQ+ family-and-parenting communities on Facebook, LinkedIn, Threads, X and more.

This includes both social media hyper-targeted advertising and our #ILoveGay social media network — now reaching over 1.5 million followers and growing — plus alumni-family storytelling, the conversion engine of this referral-driven market.

From Family Week in Provincetown and Rainbow Families conferences to Men Having Babies expos, we help your brand show up where rainbow families already gather — authentically, and year-round.
