Publisher Synopsis
"John Davis' book, The Olympic Games Effect , made a key contribution to understanding the economics of the Olympics, marketing of the Olympics, and the Olympic Games as a brand. The second edition of this important and readable volume offers new case studies and insights on social media. It should be required reading for corporate marketers tied to sport." -- Glenn Hubbard , Dean and Russell L. Carson Professor of Finance and Economics, Columbia Business School "Olympic marketing is fundamentally different from what is taught in traditional marketing texts, which is why this book is such a welcome addition to marketing knowledge. This edition contains updates with new observations from the Beijing and Vancouver Olympics. It explores the significance of the latest shifts in marketing derived from such trends as the rise in social media." -- Lynn Kahle , Giustina Professor and Head, Dept. of Marketing, Lundquist College of Business, University of Oregon "The sponsorship of the Olympics has been a critical part of the marketing success of many global companies including Samsung. As South Korea prepares for the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics Samsung and scores of potential sponsors will be debating the right strategy on how to leverage those Games to help communicate their brands. Worry no more as John Davis' The Olympic Games Effect will become the key 'go to' resource for these companies." -- Dae Ryun Chang , Professor of Marketing, Yonsei University "As a fellow International Olympic Academy faculty member and professor of sport management, I can write that John Davis' book should stand as a required companion piece to Dick Pound's Inside the Olympics in helping a very wide population grasp the Olympic Games' magnitude and global importance. The Olympic Games Effect is well written, thoroughly researched, and greatly adds to the canon of Olympic literature. It is heroic, like a true Olympian, in its commitment and achievement." -- Rick Burton , David B. Falk Professor of Sport Management at Syracuse University and author of the historical thriller The Darkest Mission "Just follow John Davis into the fascinating world of the Olympic Games and the enormous potentials they offer as a powerful global brand. Learn more about the opportunities and risks of Olympic sponsorship and how the pure idea and image of the Olympic Games create value for everyone involved." -- Professor Dr. Anton Meyer , Head of Marketing Department, Munich School of Management, LMU Read more...
