John Wiley & Sons Inc (Verlag)
978-1-394-22056-4 (ISBN)
This Third Edition of The Sports Event Management and Marketing Playbook is a timely and practical guide on how to successfully plan and deliver live sports events, combining time-proven processes and techniques with the many best practices, tools, and trends that have emerged in every facet of this expanding, highly visible, and ever-innovating industry since the Second Edition was published in 2014. The book is structured as a step-by-step guide on how to begin the development, creation, and planning for a sports event, and continues through management, marketing, production, and ultimately the post-event evaluation processes.
Real-life illustrative case studies (called "Sideline Stories") to elucidate key concepts are included throughout the text. Each chapter concludes with a convenient summary (called "Post-play Analysis") to aid in information retention, along with relevant, skill-building questions/exercises (called "Coach's Clipboard") instructors can use as student assignments.
Written by two respected and experienced industry practitioners in the sports event business, The Sports Event Management and Marketing Playbook includes information on:
Revenue streams, ranging from ticket sales, sponsorship, advertising, and merchandise to participation fees, grants, and donations
The event-sponsor relationship, covering what event organizers really want from sponsors—and vice versa
Guest management, from selling tickets to hotel management, and what to do if tickets are not selling
Unexpected events, including safety and security concerns, and how to react to emergencies and crises efficiently and effectively
Media partnerships, covering how to campaign for attention and talk to the media
With accessible and comprehensive coverage of the subject, The Sports Event Management and Marketing Playbook serves as an excellent learning aid for students in advanced undergraduate and Masters courses in Sports Event Management, Sports Marketing, Hospitality Management, and Sports Industry Management.
