Aufbauend auf den wesentlichen Grundlagen des Event-Marketing fokussiert dieses Kapitel auf das Controlling im Event-Marketing. Eingegangen wird auf die Erfolgskontrolle und die Wirkungsforschung im Event-Marketing. Es werden die Bedingungen für das Zustandekommen eines Imagetransfers von einem Event auf eine Marke bzw. ein Unternehmen erläutert und Verfahren zur Imagemessung vorgestellt.
Sport marketing is the specific application of marketing principles and processes to sports products and services. In 2014 the biggest sports event in the world, the FIFA World Cup, took place in Brazil. Billions of spectators around the world saw Germany win the trophy in Rio de Janeiro for the fourth time in history. Yet unlike in previous World Cups, conversation was not only taking place at the numerous public viewings which were held in open spaces like bars and restaurants. For the entire tournament social media like Facebook or Twitter were playing a dominant role in all aspects. With 672 million tweets on Twitter and three billion conversations on Facebook, this was the most social World Cup as well as the most social mega sports event so far. It did not matter whether it were users, athletes or companies, everyone was trying to catch up on the conversation to be informed or inform others about their opinion or latest news. This paper analyzes the implementation of social media marketing during mega sports events with a focus on Adidas’ and Nike’s social media campaigns in the frame of the FIFA World Cup 2014 in Brazil. The analysis shows that social media marketing in the frame of mega sports events gains importance. Those companies finding topics that affect people personally with a relationship to their products achieve success through social media marketing.
Dieser Beitrag beschreibt das Markenmanagement von Profifußballvereinen durch den Einsatz von Social Media. Um sich ein stückweit vom nichtplanbaren sportlichen Erfolg unabhängig zu machen, sollten sich Fußballvereine als Marke positionieren. Dazu steht ihnen allerdings traditionellerweise ein geringes Marketingbudget zur Verfügung. Social Media bietet Fußballvereinen die Möglichkeit, relativ kostengünstig und effektiv die eigene Marke aufzubauen und zu pflegen. Der Beitrag erläutert diesbezüglich die Notwendigkeit eines systematischen Markenmanagements, geht auf die Besonderheiten der Vermarktung eines Profifußballvereins ein und zeigt anhand von Beispielen, wie Social Media zum Markenaufbau respektive zur Markenpflege genutzt werden kann.
Facebook ist gegenwärtig das meist genutzte soziale Netzwerk weltweit. Es ist somit nicht verwunderlich, dass immer mehr Unternehmen Facebook im Rahmen ihres Marketings einsetzen. Die Integration von Facebook in das Markenmanagement avanciert zunehmend zum Erfolgsfaktor innovativer Unternehmen. Ein professionelles Markenmanagement mit diesem sozialen Netzwerk bietet die Möglichkeit, einen nachhaltigen Mehrwert zu generieren. In diesem Beitrag wird die Rolle von Facebook im Markenmanagement eruiert. Im Kontrast zum steigenden Bewusstsein der Vorteile von Marketing mit Facebook bleiben die Risiken einer inadäquaten Nutzung oftmals ungeachtet. Die übereilte und unsachgemäße Implementierung von Facebook in den Marketing-Mix kann sowohl in enormen ökonomischen Schäden als auch in einem Reputationsverlust für die Marke münden. Um dieses Risiko zu minimieren, werden im vorliegenden Beitrag Erfolgsfaktoren für den Einsatz von Facebook im Markenmanagement herausgearbeitet, die auf einer Analyse erfolgreicher Marketing-Kampagnen und Best-Practice-Beispielen basieren.
The most important objective of event marketing is to improve the image of a brand or a company. The paper presents an image transfer model for event marketing. Based on current research, an image transfer model for event marketing is developed and the conditions required for an image transfer to take place from an event to a brand or a company are explained. Depending on which conditions are met, there are different consequences with regard to the image transfer from the event to the brand or company that are structured and characterized in detail. The image transfer model is developed against the backdrop of selected event types often used in actual practice. The focus of its application lies mainly in brand-oriented leisure and infotainment events directed towards external target groups. The model provides a discussion and analysis of the impact category of the image transfer in event marketing. The paper explains that the possibility of an attitude change is given within the context of event marketing. The presented model serves to structure the image transfer in event marketing. It is intended to illustrate the steps that are involved in the emergence of an image transfer as well as the resulting alternative consequences.
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to comprehensively characterise the interdisciplinary phenomenon of ambush marketing in sports, structure its manifestations, illustrate the consequences associated with ambush marketing and provide a critical evaluation from an objective perspective.
Design/methodology/approach: Various approaches to the definition of ambush marketing are presented and the objectives pursued with ambush marketing are identified. In this paper a new approach has been developed to structure the strategies and manifestations of ambush marketing.
Findings: It is a fine line between creative marketing and infringing on sponsorship rights. So the interdisciplinary phenomenon ambush marketing is discussed controversially. Ambush marketing is situated at the intersection of two opposing spheres of interest conducting a battle for shares of the marketing potential of a sports event. On one side there is the disparaging view of ambush marketing founded on legal and/or ethical considerations. On the other, the author has the respectful assessment of ambushers characterised by their innovative, creative marketing.
Practical implications: The analysis conducted in this paper leads to the conclusion that a general evaluation or condemnation of ambush marketing is not feasible. A four-field matrix emerges from the combination of a legal statutory consideration on one hand and an ethical-moral assessment on the other.
Originality/value: The paper describes and structures ambush marketing in a novel form and discusses illustrating examples from major sporting events. Ambush marketing is evaluated from a neutral perspective by summarising the opportunities and threats of ambush marketing which leads to a nuanced contemplation of ambush marketing.
