If you are a corporation, you have to play to the largest audience. It is very dangerous for a corporation to say we want some people to buy our products, but not others. When you talk about marketing to gays and lesbians, there is always a significant layer of politics & (but) from a corporate point of view, there is a very clear business case to be made. |
They (gays and lesbians) not only have greater discretionary income, which can be used for luxury items like cars … But they have much more disposable time, time for travel and entertainment. |
You could reach gay audiences by going on 'Will & Grace' certainly, but it's a very expensive program, and you are reaching a lot of other consumers as well. |
