How to Avoid These Common Stereotyping Mistakes with Matt Skallerud
My guest today is Matt Skallerud, the President and Founder of Pink Media; a revolutionary company that specializes in LGBTQ+ online marketing.
Back in 1995 when the internet was just in its infancy, Matt launched GayWired.com, which quickly skyrocketed to become one of the top 3 LGBTQ websites worldwide.
I invited Matt to be a guest on my show to chat about Pink Media. I wanted to learn what they do differently to help brands reach the LGBTQ market. I also wanted to talk about stereotyping and what steps brands can do to avoid it. But most of all, I was curious to hear how Matt became known around the world as "The Accidental Social Media Star” thanks to his popular new online show #ILoveGay Today.
