Current Issues: Cost of Attendance
• Drastic increase in cost of attending MLB, NBA,
NHL, and NFL games
• Increasing evidence that sport fans are not willing
or able to pay such prices
– Do not see the value of attending a game
• Significant challenge for sport marketers is to
develop relationship marketing strategies
• Key challenge for anyone in team sport marketing
is increasing revenues for sport teams
Current Issues: Database Marketing
• Creating a database that includes consumer names,
addresses, and other demographic information
• Managing database by developing and delivering
integrated marketing programs
– Including promotions and sales offers to
targeted consumer segments
• Database marketing is often an integral factor in a
company’s decision to sponsor an event
Current Issues: Cluttered Marketplace
• Numerous and varied entertainment options are
available to a consumer with leisure time
• Added technological options for the next generation
of sport fans
• Marketplace cluttered for sponsors
– Rise in number of athletes and events, increase in
number of advertising opportunities available
• Future
– Heightened focus on marketing mainstream
sports to youth; increased challenge for sport
entity to demonstrate how sponsor will benefit
from a sponsorship
Current Issues: Image
• Development and cultivation of a positive image is
becoming increasingly important in sport
marketing.
• Cluttered marketplace: Imperative that
corporations identify sports, events, or
athletes that have unique images
• Corporate and athlete ethical scandals
• Result:
• Corporations are more discerning in ways that
they spend their sponsorship and endorsement
dollars; they may now spend more on nonprofit
organizations and causes.
