McGraw has started hosting events, most notably The Solo Salon.
In 18th century France, salons were private gatherings to discuss and debate politics and the emerging sciences. Salons spread throughout Europe and evolved to include music, poetry, and discussions of art, literature and aesthetics.
The Solo Salon is McGraw’s modern-day interpretation of these events—focusing on proud singles. More than a networking event or singles mixer, The Solo Salon brings together people who are unapologetically unattached to connect, learn, and be entertained.
Singles make up an increasing proportion of customers and employees. Yet, they are often overlooked by organizations focused on families.
Peter McGraw created Single Insights after seeing too many miss opportunities to serve his Solo podcast listeners, the 200,000+ members of his solo clubs on Clubhouse, and millions of other single adults. Using science, case studies, and large-scale surveys to reveal the distinct wants, needs, values, and lifestyles of solos.
Dr. Peter McGraw—a behavioral economist, business professor, and bachelor—knows singles and how they think, feel, and behave. His research provides managers, marketers, entrepreneurs, and sales people unique insights into this potential market. By understanding this huge, diverse group provides organizations opportunities to escape the competition.
