Kathleen Hessert @kathleenhessert is live blogging from SBJ’s Sponsorship Symposium today in NYC.
She has posted some juicy tidbits about sponsorship and social media. Here are some of my favorites:
“Sponsorship hasn’t changed. The world has changed.It’s been a sobering year”
AmEx Rich Learfield VP Global says Social Media allows them to gain scale & engage passionate fans so we look for best ideas
Soc media importance will grow more w/location based services @tpmcghee ie where fans congregate after game? share pic of experience
Anheuser Busch doubling spend on social media. Huge platform to access fan base- ask fans imp questions. Want to go where fans are
talked to several sports ppl w/influence last night in NY who still don’t have a clue- others part of the social media momentum
Not re: brand awareness must be activation according 2 Dan McHugh- Anheuser Busch. Partners must ans. How can U move more beer
Gatorade dropped TV spend from 87% of budget last year to 66% this year. Digital marketing moves from 0% to 6%
ROI is king BUT @tpmcghee AT&T says sponsors don’t have answers to what makes ROI which is 1 reason why sharing doesn’t happen
NFL CMO says must look at fans dfferently, sponsors differently. Dialogue must B deeper but partners won’t share metrics for ROI
sports attendance down. Made industry sharper. Competition that doesn’t adjust won’t be around-
thanks for the comment
I think some really interesting stuff is going on right now. Marketers are able to reach fans much easier if they open they're minds to the idea of social media marketing. I think for the time being corporations utilize social media will be in trouble. I'm in college but I've noticed my parents' generation, individuals in their 40's, becoming even more excited about social media than some individuals in my generation… especially with twitter. Twitter actually isn't all too popular with college kids. Anyway being able to communicate and coordinate events for unrelated fans after games could be prove HUGELY successful. Lots of marketing shifts will occur in the next 5 years if you ask me… Great Info Pat.

Arent Marketers and advertisers already targeting people in social medias? Those people are uptdated, they know where they have to be, and when. The targets just grow and grow bigger!
Gatorade still advertises on TV? I haven't seen one of their commercials in years.
Thanks for the interesting post. And what a concept!!!
Thanks for sharing your views.
I do believe that social media advertising is a must nowadays!!
there is too much tweeting these days, who cares what people have for lunch

Thanks for this post. Social media offers almost infinate potential in reaching target audiences.
Social Media is certainly here to stay but in its current form it is not a very practical way to reach out to customers. Perhaps in the next few years things will change, but for now social media is in its infancy and as such needs a lot of work.

That was a seminal piece on Twitter. I felt as if you wanted to write more about the innovation part. It gave me some juice to compare where we are today with Twitter vs. the Internet in 1995 http://bit.ly/info/UTZxR So many of the same questions are being asked, but different answers, of course.
Very informative post.Social Media is the in thing these days in the internet world.
Tweeting is a fun and yet you can gain a lot from it. Information and tips and you can also advertise. Great isn't?
In recent internet world social media provides massive amount of traffic for our blog or website. I got it by my tweet's account and the stumbleupon
I think it is a case of information overload now and the way that the internet is expanding it won't get any easier on us.
