Reach Milwaukee — the real way.
Urban News Journal reaches Milwaukee residents who actually show up: for a livestream three nights a week, for a newsletter twice a week, and for the on-the-ground stories other outlets skip. If you’re a Milwaukee business that wants to be visible to a genuinely local, engaged audience — not an algorithm-chased impression count — this is that opportunity.
Why sponsor UNJ
Category exclusivity. We work with a small number of sponsors at a time — one business per category, so you’re not sharing the spotlight with a competitor in the same newsletter issue or show.
A values-aligned audience. Our readers and viewers come back because UNJ is Black-owned, veteran-owned, and honest. A sponsorship here says something about your business, not just an ad slot.
Multiple ways to show up. Newsletter placements, on-air mentions during livestreams, and site visibility — pick what fits your goals.
Sponsorship options
Newsletter Sponsor Slot — $250–$750/month (based on placement and category exclusivity)
A dedicated placement in our twice-weekly newsletter, reaching subscribers directly in their inbox.
Livestream Mention — available as part of a monthly package
A verbal mention or on-screen placement during our Monday/Wednesday/Friday livestreams.
Site Placement — available as part of a monthly package
Visible placement on urbannewsjournal.com.
