How can I expose my brand / company to the DLB audience?

To get in front of the 250k - 1 million eyeballs DLB reaches, monthly, please schedule a DLB video chat or email kisses@dallaslovebugs.com for our media kit. Brand / Company Partnership opportunities include PREMIUM MONTHLY SPONSORSHIP -  appearances within social media content plus Sponsor Article on DLB website. We also offer appropriate (for our demographic) product advertising reel content. Our demographics are 75% women and 100% animal lovers. Most of our demographic lives in the USA. Pet products are a slam dunk but other industry offerings, which will appeal to our demographic, stand out.

Is Dallas Love Bugs a Non-Profit 501(c)3?

Nope! There are tens of thousands of nonprofits in the animal rescue space, yet the system remains broken with little effort behind the core issues to stop the flood of need. DLB is approaching the problem from a fresh angle – as a media entity. This work is highly-skilled and full-time intensive. We, and everyone who does high-skillset work in the animal rescue space should be paid a fair, livable wage. The "volunteer (99% women) or you don't mean it" sentiment is one of the broken rescue industry norms. If this didn't exist - we might not be in this pervasive, ongoing, worldwide dog overpopulation crisis.

Think of DLB as a 24/7 news channel for shelter dogs. This type of media isn’t pre-planned or scheduled weeks in advance. It’s real-time, responsive, and constantly evolving based on the dogs' urgent needs and the media landscape. Our work is modeled on the influencer and journalism approach. Just as you support your favorite podcasts, streaming platforms, or news outlets, your contributions to DLB fund the creation and distribution of purpose-driven media that saves lives. 100% of your support goes to DLB Media efforts. We want to change the conversation.
