  • Gay Consumer Index Lesbian Consumer Index Report 2007-8
    Gay Consumer Index TM Lesbian Consumer Index TM Report 2007-8 September 6, 2007 STUDY OVERVIEW The Gay Consumer IndexTM and Lesbian Consumer IndexTM studies are produced and published by Community Marketing, Inc. (CMI), proudly gay-owned and -operated, established in 1992. The focus of these studies is to profile lesbian and gay male consumer preferences, attitudes, spending patterns, behaviors, and motivations regarding various topics, including: credit cards, automobiles, social activities, television and print media, and politics. In addition, comparisons to findings for mainstream (heterosexual) adults are included throughout. The study identifies the unique preferences and motivations not only by gender/orientation (i.e. gay or lesbian), but also by age cohorts. The report is rich with market data, insights, historical and trend perspectives. Tremendous strides toward full equality have been achieved by the gay and lesbian communities over the past decade. Gay and lesbian survey studies have opened doors (and minds) in leading corporations and organizations, which in turn have recognized the value of their LGBT employees through the implementation of equal hiring policies and domestic partner benefits. This has been a catalyst, leading to sweeping changes in political and social inclusivity. Demographic reports also influence marketing investment. Virtually absent until recently, we now see a growing variety of products and services represented in gay and lesbian media, celebrating our communities’ diversity. Ads keep LGBT publications and websites in business, serving their communities with independent news and information. Beyond simply advertising, though, these companies support the LGBT community in many ways, including sponsoring community events and funding community-based charities in order to earn loyalty.
