Sports Marketing & Sponsorship

The study extends the research on visual imagery in advertising to sports marketing. The results suggest that excessive on-shirt advertising is wasteful for sponsorships and harmful for team image. However, a strategy of moderate advertising increases the brand recall rate and does not harm the team's image. From a managerial perspective, this study highlights the risks of excessive use of sponsor logos and provides a framework for determining the optimal level of on-shirt advertising for professional teams.

The Air Density Equation and the Transfer of the Mass Unit

Abstract

A new formulation of the equation for calculation of air density has been developed. The Cohen and Taylor value of the gas constant, currently accepted values of the atomic weights, and recent determinations of abundances of the various constituents of air have been used. The abundance of carbon dioxide has been treated as a variable and a factor enabling convenient adjustment of the apparent molecular weight of air for deviation of carbon dioxide abundance from a background value has been derived. A new table of the compressibility factor for the range of pressure and temperature of interest in standards laboratories has been calculated using recently determined values of virial coefficients. The enhancement factor, which has usually been ignored, has been explicitly included. A simple equation for the calculation of enhancement factor has been fitted to values in the range of pressure and temperature of interest. A simple equation for the calculation of saturation water vapor pressure has been fitted. Uncertainties, random and systematic, in the parameters and in the measurement of environmental variables and consequent uncertainties in calculated air density have been estimated.

The Use Of LLCs In Fiscal Sponsorship a New Model

The Effectiveness Of Sports Sponsorships: A Study Of The New Orleans Zephyrs

ABSTRACT

Despite the pervasiveness of sports in American society and the ever-increasing role of sponsorship in the marketing mix, sponsorship marketing as a discipline currently lacks the rigorous academic study and theoretical foundations that exist in other marketing disciplines.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not sponsorship of New Orleans Zephyrs baseball is an effective way of increasing awareness of a product or brand. Using intermediate measures of recognition testing, fans at three New Orleans Zephyrs games were surveyed to test sponsor recognition. The study examined various elements of sponsorship marketing including the effects that gender, age, income, education and attendance frequency had on sponsorship recognition. Additionally, fans were asked if they consciously looked for sponsor messages at games and where they most noticed the messages. Lastly, respondents were asked if they would use a Zephyrs sponsor’s product over a non-sponsor’s product given the same price and quality.
