ADVERTISE & PARTNER WITH POLISH

This isn’t an ad buy.
It’s an Investment.

We are not built to chase traffic. We are built to cultivate loyalty. That means our audience is engaged, intentional, and paying attention—and businesses that partner with us get to be part of something that actually means something to them.

Sponsoring POLISH is a way for businesses and organizations to put real dollars behind independent Black trans and queer stories–and to be seen doing it, in a space where that visibility carries weight.

PARTNER WITH POLISH

Reach an Audience
That Knows the
Difference.

The POLISH audience doesn't just consume media; they discern it. They are culturally fluent, community-rooted, and deeply loyal to the platforms that have consistently shown up for them. Reaching them is not a transaction. It's a relationship, and it requires partners willing to show up with the same integrity we do.

Partnerships are strategic collaborations that leverage our editorial and social power with brands, institutions, and organizations that share our values or are genuinely committed to the communities we center. If that's you, we'd love to talk.

For community organizations, nonprofits, and mission-aligned initiatives that want to reach our audience with purpose and care.

  • Co-branded editorial content

  • Social media integration

  • Event and campaign support

  • Values-alignment review included

For brands that want an authentic presence with a Black trans and queer audience with integrity built in from the start.

  • Editorial integration

  • Social-forward content series

  • Cross-platform amplification

  • Dedicated editorial strategy session
