key elements of the consumer's decision-making process. This book provides students and industry professionals with the knowledge and
skills necessary to meet the current marketing challenges facing professionals working in the sport and event industries.
This comprehensive
text covers a wide range of determinants that influence both active recreation and passive spectator participation, and offers the reader:
– A detailed understanding of the personal, psychological and environmental factors that influence sport and event related consumer
behaviour – A basis for the development of marketing actions useful in sport and related business, community and government sectors
– A comprehensive understanding of how individuals associate themselves with sport and event products and services – A quick and simple
segmentation tool to guide discussion of marketing actions and strategies for four stages of involvement with sport and events – A comprehensive
events checklist to help understand marketing actions related to the development, promotion and delivery of a sport event.
