Who is reading
Sac Queens goes out every Thursday at 7 a.m., which is when people decide what they are doing Friday and Saturday. That timing is the whole product.
We asked our readers who they are. The median reader is 40 years old and 56% are between 25 and 44, which is to say they have their own money and their own Friday nights. One in ten owns an LGBTQ+ business.
Here is what they clicked on last month: Rainbow Festival tickets, a Sacramento Gay Men's Chorus meetup, Dugout Divas Uncorked, the French Rendezvous schedule. They are not browsing. They are buying tickets and putting things in a calendar.
243 people subscribed in the last three months. Six unsubscribed.
