Book Synopsis Brand Platform in the Professional Sport Industry by : Jingxuan Zheng
Download or read book Brand Platform in the Professional Sport Industry written by Jingxuan Zheng and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-17 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how the emergence of new media brings brought challenges to the North American sport industry, discussing challenges in terms of a shift from an information economy to an attention economy perspective. Historically, the arrival of new forms of media, including radio and television, were not universally supported by sports leagues, wary of existing industry relationships with stakeholders, and new media have made the multi-sided market model of professional sports leagues – which has focused on protection and exploitation of league content – inefficient, and calls for a new model to integrate new media into the market. By integrating platform theory with the Service Dominant Logic (SDL) of marketing we describe how the multi-sided market of professional sports is evolving into a platform ecosystem, and the role of its most important customers – the fans – will also evolve from end users, to value co-creators, complementors and innovators. This book will create a new way of understanding the evolution of professional sports leagues and future growth of the industry, and lay the foundation for new research within the academic realm of sport management and sports marketing.

This book was released on 2020-03-17 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2010 in the subject Health - Sport - Sport Economics, Sport Management, grade: 1,3, University of Bath, language: English, abstract: The aim of this thesis is to transfer Muniz/O'Guinn's brand community concept to the sports market. Looking at the previous conception and definition of brand communities, those communities around the brands of sports organisations appear to be an ideal example. Hardly any other industry arouses so much interest and is of such great importance in the everyday life of customers with regard to the product or service and creates a more solid basis for social identification, interaction and emotional bonding than sports. The research question can be formulated as follows: To what extent can the concept of brand community be applied to sports brands and their surrounding community? What are the opportunities and risks of applying and adapting the concept to the sports industry for sports brand management? After a detailed theoretical derivation of the term "brand community" with reference to the concepts from marketing (branding) and sociology (consumer community) that constitute it, this work transfers the concept to the specificities of the sports market. Scientific studies on the management of sports brands as well as on community fan behaviour and sports consumption will be used. In a critical appraisal, the advantages and disadvantages of the brand community concept are evaluated and corresponding opportunities and risks for the use in the management sports brands. It is a choice between increased customer loyalty, enlarged brand value and efficient marketing on the one hand and counterproductive consumer behaviour, reduced brand value and uncontrollable marketing on the other hand. In the end, this work comes after a detailed exploratory research to the conclusion that the Brand Community concept has great potential for the management of the brands of sports organisations. Although there are other research is needed to adapt the model even more specifically to the specificities of to the needs of the sports market. But already it provides the manager of sports brands undreamt-of opportunities to exploit the close connection between sports consumers to make more efficient use of the sports brand and the strong surrounding community and to capitalize on it.

Book Synopsis Team Sports Marketing by : Kirk Wakeland
Download or read book Team Sports Marketing written by Kirk Wakeland and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-02-07 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some might argue that sports marketing is a mere subfield of marketing, meaning that there are theoretical and practical dimensions that apply only to sports marketing and are only of interest to those involved in sports. In Team Sports Marketing, author Kirk Wakefield dispels this argument by demonstrating that effective sports marketing epitomizes the science and art of marketing across any context. At the core of sports marketing is the creation and enhancement of fan identification, where consumers are not just loyal customers, but have become brand fanatics. Team Sports Marketing shows that while many aspects of sports marketing are thought to be unique to the field, other product and service sectors would do well to learn from teams in the NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL that have transformed customers into fans. Moving beyond principles of marketing, Team Sports Marketing is packed with examples of best practices and covering subjects as diverse as sponsorships, season ticket sales, venue management and all topics in between. Team Sports Marketing is a must read text for students and managers in professional and collegiate sports. Support materials for professors and students are available at www.teamsportsmarketing.com.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theory is an essential element in the development of any academic discipline and sport management is no exception. This is the first book to trace the intellectual contours of theory in sport management, and to explain, critique and celebrate the importance of sport management theory in academic research, teaching and learning, and in the development of professional practice. Written by a world-class team of international sport management scholars, each of whom has taken a leading role in developing a particular theory or framework for understanding sport management, the book covers the full span of contemporary issues, debates, themes and functional approaches, from corporate social responsibility and diversity to strategy, marketing and finance. Every chapter explores a key theoretical approach, including an overview of that theory, a discussion of the process of theory development and of how the theory has been employed in research, practice or teaching, and outlines directions for future research in that area. Each chapter includes cases and examples, as well as short illustrative commentaries from people who have used that particular theory in their work, and attempts to highlight the theory-practice links, or gaps, in that area. For a fully-rounded understanding of what sport management is and how it should be studied, taught and practiced, a thorough grounding in theory is essential. The Routledge Handbook of Theory in Sport Management is therefore important reading for all advanced students, researchers, instructors, managers and practitioners working in this exciting field.
Book Synopsis Branding a Professional American Football Franchise by : John J. Ragone
Download or read book Branding a Professional American Football Franchise written by John J. Ragone and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The original intent of my thesis was to create a professional-level team identity that a community can embrace and emotionally bond with by utilizing contemporary design trends. As I researched the visual aspects of the brand strategy, it became apparent that current trends toward multiplicity of uniform designs could become a threat to an organization's brand equity. A corporate identity is the strategically engineered 'personality' of an organization created to facilitate business objectives. How that identity is perceived and accepted supports relationship building between an organization and its audience or customers. Brand equity is developed through ease of recognition and repeatedly consistent visual presentation. Sports branding is unique because it connects with its fanbase (customers) on a deeply emotional level by representing a community and its values, using its design as the primary vehicle to embody and communicate specific traits. To its fans, a team identity is an emotional and personal representation of themselves, and van Schaik argues games are shared community experiences. Given that, tradition is vitally important to a team's longtime fans. Among hard-core devotees, there is a tendency to dislike logo and uniform changes, far preferring history and folklore over transformation and upheaval. However, over the last decade or so, sports organizations have turned to wearing a large variety of uniform designs as one aspect of strategic marketing and a means to create excitement, garner attention, and separate themselves from others in the crowded sports entertainment arena. But with these innovative approaches to branding, identity brand equity may erode for organizations who employ this tactic. That current trend towards multiplicity may become a threat to a team's brand equity by becoming more focused on variety and fashion, instead of consistent brand presentation and recognition. Constantly changing the 'packaging' of a team identity in the form of on-field uniforms can potentially result in brand dilution, weakening of its brand though overuse, ultimately resulting in the brand losing its prestige and credibility. As a result, the goal of my thesis has shifted to developing a professional football team identity by embracing innovative, contemporary design trends, but in a way that creates or respects a team's (or league's) existing traditions and folklore."--Abstract.
