The Opportunity

A Two-Fold Campaign Approach
Built for the LGBTQ+ Electorate

There are a variety of ways in which we can reach the LGBTQ+ electorate — from movement professionals and reliable voter-donors to the crisis-activated, Gen Z's digital organizers, the ally electorate, and the quiet supporters in hostile geographies. Partner with Pink Media for the most comprehensive yet targeted reach into the highly-coveted LGBTQ+ consumer, with a focus on Politics, Activism & Law. Our campaigns are two-fold — and, in this market, built with the precision politics demands.

First, we focus on getting your message out to a hyper-targeted, voter-file-integrated LGBTQ+ audience online via traditional online advertising, mobile apps, video advertising, and more — layering politically active LGBTQ+ audiences (built from every major voter data provider) onto community inventory, with granularity down to the state legislative district and swing-state CTV. Second, we get your message out via strategically-placed social media posts and community-organization amplification — because in this market, endorsements from community organizations and out leaders outperform generic political messaging.

This includes both social media hyper-targeted advertising and our #ILoveGay Network, now spanning 35+ LGBTQ+ apps, publishers, creators, podcasts and connected-TV partners. 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 Civic-Market Coverage.

A comprehensive strategy that reaches the LGBTQ+ electorate through voter-file-integrated advertising channels AND organic social & community-organization amplification — simultaneously.

Part One

Voter-File-Integrated Advertising

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

Our political stack integrates every major voter data provider — L2, TargetSmart, i360, Tunnl, Aristotle — layering politically active LGBTQ+ audiences onto community inventory, and forecasting, targeting, and reporting by state legislative district, congressional district, state, DMA, ZIP, or hyperlocal radius.

For advanced placements, we utilize swing-state Connected TV (CTV) with ACR technology — with the DAA's Political Ad Icon and disclosure standards built in.

Part Two

Community & Organization Amplification

We tap into the online conversations and communities on your behalf — amplifying your advocacy messages, calls to action, and civic education within LGBTQ+ politics & activism communities on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Threads, X and more.

This includes both social media hyper-targeted advertising and our #ILoveGay social media network — plus the community-organization validation and out-leader endorsements that outperform generic political messaging.

From the convening calendar (Creating Change, lobby days, fall dinners) to the whole coalition — community, ally electorate, and the registration gap — we help you show up where it counts, plus #ILoveGay Today interviews with advocates and leaders.
