The Opportunity

A Three-Pronged Campaign Approach
Built for Sauna & Bathhouse Venues

There are a variety of ways in which we can help your venue reach the gay male community — from local regulars and first-time visitors to the travelers looking for a welcoming space when they're in town. Partner with Pink Media for the most comprehensive yet targeted reach into the community, with a focus on Saunas & Bathhouses. This is a local, high-intent business, and the men who make it thrive are already on the platforms and in the conversations where we show up.

First, we focus on getting your venue in front of a hyper-targeted LGBTQ+ audience online via geo-targeted programmatic advertising — display, mobile, and video — layered onto community inventory and geo-targeted down to your city and neighborhood, with travel-intent targeting to reach visitors arriving in your market. Second, we run share-of-voice social, keeping your venue visible in the local gay community's conversation. Third, we curate and amplify UGC — event nights, member moments, and community buzz that keep your venue top of mind.

This includes our #ILoveGay Network, now reaching over 1.5 million LGBTQ+ followers. Our success metrics are based on the visibility and performance we provide: impressions, reach, click-throughs, and engagement.

Prong One
Geo-Targeted Advertising

Prong Two
Share-of-Voice Social

We keep your venue visible in the local gay community's conversation — organically and through paid amplification via our #ILoveGay network — across Facebook, Instagram, Threads and more, and in the city-level community groups that drive foot traffic.

Prong Three
UGC Curation & Amplification

The content that fills a venue: event nights, member moments, and community buzz, curated and shared with your venue at the center — keeping you top of mind for the men deciding where to go tonight, this weekend, or on their next trip.
