Sponsorship: Strategies for Maximising the Return on Investment
|

Global sponsorship spending is forecast to hit an all time high $33.8 billion in 2006, a 10.8% increase on the $30.5 billion of 2005*. That rise reflects that sponsorship has steadily risen up the marketing agenda to the point where it is now a fundamental part of the marketing mix. For many brand owners - such as Coca-Cola, Shell, Gillette and Vodafone - sports sponsorship has been pivotal in their marketing communication campaigns and provided these very different brand owners with a global brand communication platform.
At the same time sports sponsorship is evolving to take advantage of emerging technologies and the proliferation of media channels, while ethical considerations, measurement and cause related marketing are becoming increasingly important.
