Why Brands Shouldn’t Shy Away From LGBTQ+ Content

With the current political climate, many brands are treading lightly when it comes to LGBTQ+ strategy — both in terms of including community members in advertising and where those ads are being placed. But a new study from Nielsen of Revry viewers suggests that by embracing inclusivity and diversity, brands can drive not only loyalty but purchase intent.

  • A majority of viewers (more than three in five) say it’s important for brands to show support for LGBTQ+ events, causes and the community overall.
  • 70% of viewers consider advertising during LGBTQ+ content as support for the community.
  • Nearly two-thirds of surveyed viewers say they’d be more likely to buy from brands that advertise in LGBTQ+ TV programming or feature someone from the community in their advertising.
