Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this dissertation was to construct a customer-based cause-related sport marketing (CRSM) model and test the relationships among the proposed antecedents, consequences, and moderators. Three experimental studies were executed to achieve the research purpose. Study 1 aimed at examining how customers evaluate cause-related marketing (CRM) campaigns of team licensed products. A choice experiment (N=109) indicated that (a) a "social responsible" feature was the second most important attribute for choosing a baseball cap, (b) a low-fit, but familiar, CRM program was preferred to a high-fit, but unfamiliar, program, and (c) fan identification moderated the impact of sport/cause fit on students' choice of team licensed products. Study 2 investigated the impact of personality and gender on consumer attitudes toward CRSM programs. A 2 (sport/cause fit) x 2 (motivation) within subject experiment (N=86) found that (a) both sport/cause fit and motivation engaging in CRSM significantly affected consumer attitudes toward CRSM, (b) females showed more positive attitudes toward CRSM programs, and (c) Agreeableness was positively related to consumer attitudes toward CRSM but Neuroticism was negatively associated. Study 3 centered on the direct and moderating effects of fan identification and organizational identification on consumer attitudes toward CRSM programs using intercollegiate sport as a context. A two-group (high vs. low-fit CRSM messages), between subject, and post-test only experiment (N=309) denoted that (a) respondents showed more positive attitudes toward high-fit CRSM messages, (b) both fan identification and organizational identification moderated the effects of sport/cause fit on attitudes, and (c) positive attitudes increased purchase intentions on the cause-related products. To sum up, the three experimental studies support the relationships among antecedents, consequences, and moderators proposed in the customer-based causerelated sport marketing model. Theoretical and practical contributions are discussed. Finally, several limitations and future research directions are also established.

This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Cause-related marketing is an emerging area within the marketing discipline, originating in the United States in the 1980s. This thesis defines the term cause-related marketing as a marketing strategy whereby the firm makes a contribution, financial or otherwise, to a nonprofit organisation(s) contingent upon the customer engaging in a revenue providing exchange that satisfies business and individual objectives. This strategy may include additional elements such as sponsorship, sales promotion, co-branding and employee involvement. -- In examining the literature relating to cause-related marketing, a need for further research was identified for a number of reasons. First, there is considerable investment and growth in this strategy both in Australia and overseas. Second, academic and practitioner research have indicated strong consumer support for the concept of cause-related marketing, yet there has been limited evidence to date regarding the effectiveness of this strategy, especially in comparison to other marketing strategies. Finally, in an increasingly challenging business environment, marketing practitioners are seeking to explore new strategies and the efficacy of traditional forms of marketing communications is subject to debate. As such, this thesis explored the following research questions: What is the impact of cause-related marketing on the consumer's response in terms of attitude to the strategy, attitude toward the brand and purchase intention? and, Do consumers respond more positively toward cause-related marketing than toward sponsorship or sales promotion? -- To address these questions, an experimental research design incorporating self-administered questionnaires was used. The major finding of this research is that consumers may have a more favourable attitude to cause-related marketing than to either sponsorship or sales promotion, however the brand must be perceived to have a natural association or fit with the cause. Further, cause-related marketing has the ability to engender a more favourable change in attitude to the brand than does sales promotion. This change in attitude is affected by the consumer's attitude to the strategy itself. This study did not, however, demonstrate that exposure to cause-related marketing, sponsorship or sales promotion had a significant effect on purchase intention. Finally, neither gender nor personal values have been shown to influence the above outcomes. The findings of this research have a number of practical implications for the effective use of cause-related marketing.

This book was released on 2022-09-12 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cause related marketing initiatives have become an extremely popular strategy of marketing used by brands in todays’ world, now, more so than ever. Consumer behaviour towards cause related marketing has generally been positive and has led to an increase in the purchase intention as well as the final purchase of the customer. Consumer pride as well as satisfaction with a product or a brand leads to the spread of information about the particular brand within the customer network. The push strategy of marketing is no longer relevant to todays’ market and customers are looking to be associated with a brand that goes beyond the norm of selling products and is making important contributions to the welfare of the society or is taking an important stand on a particular social cause. The purpose of this study is to analyse the influence of Cause related marketing strategies in the dynamic apparel industry and the extent to which it influences purchase intention, consumer pride and eventually lead to brand evangelism, An evangelist being a customer that actively defends and support a brand across platforms and through word of mouth. Customer purchase today is increasingly research based and highly dependent on the opinions of other customers. In regard to this, evangelism, if achieved by a brand can be one of the most cost effective yet most impactful marketing strategies for the brand. The study uses quantitative and qualitative measures to analyse the impact of Cause Marketing on purchase intention and brand evangelism. An empirical study was conducted through a self-administered survey which helps determine the extent to which this effect holds true in the apparel industry. ANOVA and Regression analysis helped determine the relationship between various demographic factors and the variables of the model. The study aims to explore the relational gap between variables such as Cause marketing, consumer pride and brand evangelism. Furthermore, the study also aims to explore the experimental gap on the impact of consumer cause identification on purchase intention. This information will help the industry curate their advertisements and other promotional activities accordingly. Keywords: Cause Marketing, Consumer pride, Purchase intention, Brand evangelism, Brand equity, Perceived brand image.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cause-related marketing (CRM) is a growing area of corporate social responsibility that involves a joint venture between a for-profit brand and a nonprofit organization. Over the past 30 years, cause-related marketing research has expanded to all corners of the globe. Themes in CRM research include cause-brand fit, cause involvement, cultural values and beliefs, and the influence of CRM on consumer attitudes and purchase intentions. A series of bivariate meta-analyses were conducted using a random effects assumption to determine effect sizes in this field, and explain the variance in effects across a global body of literature. Results include the effect of CRM campaigns on brand attitudes, r=.284, 95% CI(0.189,0.373), and purchase intentions, r=.277, 95% CI(0.141, 0.404). A meta-analytical structural equation model (MASEM) of CRM effects on attitudes and purchase intentions (K=78, N=22,849) based on the theory of planned behavior is presented to guide future studies that explore the impact of beliefs such as cause involvement (B=.12) and skepticism (B= -.34) on consumer perceptions of cause-brand alliance fit, and the substantial impact (B=.40) these perceptions have on consumer attitudes. Recommendations for nonprofit marketers, for-profit marketers and academic research topics and methods are discussed.
