SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE — June 12 — The Money Talks PR stunt of
the week goes to…the Society of Single Professionals for a speech by
dating expert Rich Gosse, the Marin PR guy who you may remember ran for governor on the singles platform.
Gosse is headlining the "Singles Extravaganza" at the Marriott Hotel
and says, despite San Francisco's reputation as a gay mecca, Baghdad by
the Bay is a "straight singles' paradise." In his winning press
release, Gosse says it is not true that all San Francisco men are
married, gay or dead. "Even after you subtract the 24% of single men in
San Francisco who are gay, there are still more heterosexual bachelors
to meet, per capita, than in most large cities in America. If San
Francisco women think it's tough to meet a man, they should try New
York City, where there is a surplus of over 700,000 single women over
single men!" FULL ARTICLE @ SF GATE
Mark Brooks: Rich has been running singles events for years. He started American Singles and sold it to Matchnet (now Spark). He still runs the 'Society of american singles,' as a non-profit, and runs events and flirting conventions in the Bay Area and as far afield as Australia.
