KRLS 105 Final Flashcards
chapter 18-24
What is the Promotion Mix
Personal selling
advertising
publicity
Incentives (sales promotions)
What is the basis of Howard & Crompton’s Sponsorship Platform
The central theme where the sponsor can develop a consistent promotional message
Sponsorship doesn’t always offer a direct message as to why a brand should be purchased (mcdonalds at the olympics)
Amplify, and invest in fewer sponsorships
Two basic costs of sponsorships
Direct sponsorship investment
Indirect activation of the sponsorship
(3:1 ratio)
How is the media involved in sponsorship
Media involvement is prominent in negotiations
Media coverage is key to brands seeking increased awareness or image enhancement
Three ways to pursue media coverage
Negotiate trade-outs with TV, radio, or newspaper
Media pays to sponsor event in exchange for rights to sell other sponsorships
Secure editorial coverage (sell ad time on NFL, ad time in exchange for title credits and mention in promotion)
How can we view sponsorships (6)
Signage
Awards
Internet
Retail promotions
Personalized service
Licensing
How do we get sponsorships
establish linkages
long term relationships may leave legacies
3 year relationship minimum recommended
Why would sponsors not renew a contract
Sponsor management or market conditions may change
Reduction in the impact of sponsorship
Why are there alcohol sponsorships
Sports fans drink BEER
Both men and women consume alcohol during sports and peak at ages 18-29
Seen as a lesser evil than tobacco
What is the Title Sponsor
Name integrated into event
has input in event organization
can result in increased costs
What is the Presenting Sponsor
Usually pay 1/2 to 1/4 of what the Title sponsor pays
Given rights to associate in a specific product category
Will try to narrow categories to increase number of sponsorships possible
(Fishing competition presented by Diet Mtn Dew)
What is the Official Sponsor
Pay 10% of the title fee
Are part of the product categories that are not reserved by presenting sponsors ( Bass pro shop the official sponsor while Mtn Dew is the presenting sponsor)
What is the Official Supplier
Do not have an obvious link to the event
Offer goods or services to organization staging the event
Coleman fixing peoples ovens at the NASCAR race
How should Sponsorships be priced
Use benefit packages no adding or removing perks from each package
Always present the most expensive option first
Most of the fee should be paid upfront because the sponsor will reap benefits before the event happens
What are the issues in a sponsorship agreement
Offical status (sponsorship categories)
Sponsorship fee (how much, refundable)
Title rights (how does the sponsors name appear)
TV Exposure (Right of first refusal for advertising, NFL sponsored by coke, but Dallas team sponsored by Pepsi)
What are the quantifiable sponsorship impacts
Duration of television coverage
Duration of radio mentions
Press coverage column (in inches)
Calculate and assigns a dollar value based on the rate paid
What are the qualitative sponsorship impacts
attractiveness of the media coverage
quality of media coverage
amount of clutter
Not many companies actually pay full price for an ad
Assumes that time of exposure adds up to equivalent commerical spot
Impact of Sponsorship on Awareness
nobody actually remembers who sponsors an event
Market leaders are often given the credit (thinking NIKE sponsored an event when it was actually UA)
How is a Geographic area established
Province, region, city
Usually reflects the funding source
Displaced spending- spending that would occur in that area anyway (\
How do we analyse economic impacts
Estimate the attendance to an event
Survey attendees to find spending associated with the event
What is the Multiplier
The degree to which spending induces an additional round of spending
(fries equals thirsty, so you buy a drink)
(buying beers with the bros equals you buy more beers with the bros and a taxi home)
What is the Income Approach
Total payments to workers and suppliers in an industry
(apply the multiplier)
Errors at any point in calculation can significantly bias result
What is the substitution effect
If attendees spend more money on an event instead of something else local in the economy
-reallocation of expenditures, does not net increase economic activity
A leisure event may lower local economic impact if there is reallocation of expenditures from other activities that have a higher multiplier
What is time switching
No new economic activity- just changing to when event occurs
Who are casual visitors
Someone in an area for unrelated purposes, but attended event while in town
What are similarities between Time switchers and Casual visitors
can only have $$ over and above what they would have otherwise spent to be counted (more than you planned to spend)
Who are incremental Vistors
Come to the region for the purposes of the event
What is indirect spending
recirculation of $$ in economy after direct spending on the event
What is induced spending
How direct and indirect impacts affect earnings and employment (bonuses etc.)
How does the multiplier work
Helps estimate indirect and induced spending
How is direct spending recirculated (5)
- Other private businesses in the same economy
- Employees in the same economy
- Local government
- Non-Local governments
- Employees, businesses, outside of the local economy (leakage)
What is leakage
Spending that does not remain in the local economy
What are the issues with overestimation
Crowding out (discourages economic activity in the area, new event spending simply supplanting spending that would have otherwise occurred)
Reverse time switchers (people who leave because of the event)
What are the solutions to overestimation
ignore local residents to impact estimates
exclude time switchers and casual visitors
consider costs and opportunity costs
Sum up model (total economic impact= direct spending + indirect spending + induced spending (household level))
What are Mega events
Huge infrastructure costs
Huge operating costs
many estimates are grossly exaggerated, not considering the lack of spending elsewhere
What are intangible benefits
Psychic impact: emotional impact the community receives by hosting
-may be used to justify subsidy to build infrastructure
What is the contingent valuation method
It is a survey methodology
-respondents are asked their willingness to pay an increase in taxes to see increased public good
Examples of contingent valuation method in work
Pittsburgh Penguins in bankruptcy, residents of Pittsburgh willing to pay to keep team running
What are hard taxes
Burden falls on mot or all taxpayers
Hard to implement because typically requires voter approval
What are Soft taxes
Hotel-motel (bed); rental cars; liquor or cigarette (sin); athlete
Easier to levy because born by visitors or a small group
What are bonds
Long term debt instruments that allow local governments to borrow large sums in advance (are repayed over 15-30 yeard to limit a large tax increase)
How do governments collect hard taxes
-primary source of revenue
-other taxes might reduce tax base (move out and find better tax rate)
-Property is immobile so easier to tax
-ability to pay (fancy property, higher taxes)
-A benefit tax (snow removal, sewage)
-Can appeal assesment
What are general sales tax
GST
The greater the area covered by the tax the more revenues generated, and the greater dispersion of the tax burden
What are soft taxes
places burden on smaller group (targeted at non-residents)
Tourist taxes (hotel and car rental tax)
Toured will benefit from infrastructure development, unpredictable tourism can fluctuate
Jock taxes
visiting players pay a tax for work done, defined in terms of duty days, visiting NHL players in alberta pay based on games played (discontinued)
How do we finance debt
city pledges to repay debt obligation
interest costs are paid over length of the repayment period
payments are spread out to reduce the annual tax burden
equitable to tax payers, some people may never use facility paid for it
How are bonds financed
Promise from borrower to pay lender a certain amount of money overtime with interest
-a face value
-a fixed rate of interest
-a maturity date (when bond must be repaid in full)
What is a serial retirement schedule
bonds are sequenced with different maturity dates, so that several bonds get paid off over time (maturity date should neer be longer than the life of project)
What are general obligation bonds
unconditional promise to repay debt
secured through property taxes
Limit on the amount the government can borrow
Come with a low interest rate
Must get approval from a referendum
