I just finished reading an excellent post on the LGBT market over at the “BrandFabulousness” blog.

If you’re looking for a nice overview and intro to the LGBT market, please check out their “Pink is the New Green” post.

As advertising continues to shift away from mass marketing focused on reach and frequency on broad reach platforms like TV that no longer reach everyone, to targeted, niche-driven marketing focused on engagement, it stands to reason that appeal of niches like the LGBT market will increase.

The “Pink is the New Green” piece also addresses how LGBT marketing is evolving from the old days of focusing primarily on events and local print to a more integrated approached leveraging increasingly sophisticated media vehicles like digital media.
