Is a DEI Pullback Preventing a Pride Marketing Comeback?
Show notes
This week, we’re examining if brands have actually pulled their support for Pride month, or if they’re just keeping it private now. Some are still shelling out money, others are making their presence known at parades, and others…just aren’t talking about their involvement. But when it comes to Gen Z, some brands will prove they want to be loud and proud about their support for the LGBTQIA+ celebrations.
00:00: Intro
02:50: When did the Pride pullback begin
06:00: Brands need to be clear in their own values
09:00: How companies have shifted support in presence and financials
13:20: Pride merch collections
16:00: Appealing to Gen Z
19:00: Can Pride marketing make a comeback
