Sport & Sponsorship-Linked Marketing SIG Paper of the Year

Mazodier, Henderson, & Beck’s JM is “Paper of the Year”

The group’s “Paper of the Year” in Sport Marketing is entitled “The long reach of sponsorship: How fan isolation and identification jointly shape sponsorship performance.” Published in the Journal of Marketing in 2018, the paper was authored by Marc Mazodier, Conor M. Henderson, and Joshua T. Beck

Published in the Journal of Marketing, the results of Mazodier, Henderson, and Beck (2018) suggest that in today’s digital era sponsors should prioritize fans who have been commonly ignored: highly identified fans who are out-of-market. Such fans may be even more motivated to both buy team goods and actively choose products from sponsoring brands. The results of a series of experiments involving fans of the English Premier League, the Los Angeles Lakers, Paris Saint Germain, and the National Football League recommend that sponsors should microtarget fans by audience location and interests on social platforms to achieve various sponsorship-linked marketing objectives.
