RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
To identify the demographics of customers using Hims, we started off our search by checking if there were reports that examined the topic. Although we found a publication by Quantcast titled 'Ranking Websites by Demographics' where it ranks websites based on their demographics. However, we quickly found that none of the published data was specific to Hims.
We also looked to see if we could find investor reports as these reports typically specify the company's customer demographics, but a search of the public domain did not reveal any reports of that nature. A thorough examination of the website was equally fruitless.
We then switched gears and looked to see if we could find case studies of agencies Hims had worked with in the past to see if they published any relevant data or insight on its customer demographics. However, the case studies we found were related to brand strategy and did not include any relevant customer insights.
Another approach we explored was to conduct a press search on the subject matter to see if we could pool together insights from different articles. Our findings indicate that there is little or no demographic data on Hims in the public domain. The articles we found mostly focused on the investments it receives and starting a female version of Hims.
As a last resort, we turned to website analysis tools such as Alexa, SimilarWeb, and SEMrush. SimilarWeb was extremely helpful as it had information on the age and gender distribution of visitors to the Hims websites, although we had to register for the pro version (for free) to access the information. We also put the most-used organic keywords found on SimilarWeb through a keyword demographic tool, but only the 'hims' keyword returned demographics data. Kindly note that the SimilarWeb and demographic tool link all default to their home page, but the information is also available in the attached document.
