INtO tHE FUtURE inTo THE FUTURE
Building on this momentum, the future sponsorship outlook for 2015 is also strong, driven by the Rugby World Cup in england, wider macro economic growth, and a rise in sponsorship rights fees paid, as anticipated by 3 in 4 sponsors surveyed. While 2014 was for many rights holders across europe a year of transition in their sponsorship portfolios, 2015 will see greater attention invested by rights holders and sponsors on defining winning sponsorship deals for the next 5 years. the Question was asked of sponsors: Is your company considering new sponsorships in 2015? Beyond this year, onside estimates expect that by 2016, sponsorship investment in ireland could reach a high of €164 million, with 2016 ueFA euros and olympics, as well as a more bedded in european Rugby landscape, stimulating greater use of sponsorship rights in post-recession ireland. Banks are tipped by participants in the onside industry survey to play a major part in this growth surge, along with healthcare and insurance sectors, while rugby, music, concerts & festivals and GAA emerged as the platforms believed to hold greatest potential, with the latter seen to offer best ‘value for money’ for sponsors. evolving new categories to watch for beyond

‘the usual suspects’ include building / construction related sponsors, professional services firms and retail. lifestyle sports major 2014 deal with Connacht Rugby and munster Rugby’s new community based initiative with m&s were new deals in 2014 that exemplify this growing sector in sponsorship.

2 in 3 irish sponsors see the Rugby World Cup 2015 as an opportunity to engage with their consumers, compared with 44% that saw the FiFA World Cup 2014 in this light last year. Perhaps in part paralleling this, leverage of sponsorship programmes via Hospitality is also set to see noticeable growth, with 37% of sponsors expecting to do more with this channel in 2015. sponsor priorities in 2015 will include smarter ways of unlocking the full power of content with digital and social distribution at the fore, more micro targeting and personalisation against bulls-eye fan groups and local communities, and heightened attention on sponsors’ positions around the rights and wrongs of who or what they sponsor.

Future concerns for the industry revealed by the research include how to gain real stand-out within tight budget realities, developing metrics to prove sponsorships’ share of sales outcomes and a limited supply of premier rights opportunities. the degree of rift between sponsors and rights holders expectations and understanding of each others roles and priorities, with Roi a particular sticking point, is also a challenge that requires some remedy in 2015.

Short Stories

...An Alpine Divorce by Robert Barr In some natures there are no half-tones; nothing but raw primary colours. John Bodman was a man who was always at one extreme or the other. This probably would have mattered little had he not married a wife whose nature was an exact duplicate of his own. Doubtless there exists in this world precisely the right woman for any given man to marry and vice versa; but when you consider that a human being has the opportunity of being acquainted with only a few hundred people, and out of the few hundred that there are but a dozen or less whom he knows intimately, and out of the dozen, one or two friends at most, it will easily be seen, when we remember the number of millions who inhabit this world, that probably, since the earth was created, the right man has never yet met the right woman. The mathematical chances are all against such a meeting, and this is the reason that divorce courts exist. Marriage at best is but a compromise, and if two people happen to be united who are of an uncompromising nature there is trouble. In the lives of these two young people there was no middle distance. The result was bound to be either love or hate, and in the case of Mr. and Mrs. Bodman it was hate of the most bitter and arrogant kind. In some parts of the world incompatibility of temper is considered a just cause for obtaining a divorce, but in England no such subtle distinction is made, and so until the wife became criminal, or the man became both criminal...

Realizing This

...do this, what happens if I fail, how do I juggle my personal responsibilities, will this degree even matter? Now there are credible fears and ludcrious fears in life and for me all these fears boil down to the fear of failure- I don’t want to go through all this hardship and end up flat on my face. I even would go as far to say that most of my early life’s disillusionment stemmed from this fear. Rather than try I would just be critical of those who did. Taking my education and viewing it as a life enhancement will help me during the times of struggle towards my degree. Ultimately, whether or not this gets me a better paying job, the tools I learn here will help me in all the endeavors of my life. Taking this approach will impact the outlook when life wont work how I think it should based on what I’ve done. The question now is, understanding the challenges I face, how will I take responsibility of my success? As I’ve alluded to before, the first step is to transform the way I think. It will do me no good when the struggles arise if I look at college with resentment. I must see this as value added. For me, when things are a positive, it makes it easier to handle the bad that always come along with it. The follow through with this will be the pratical application of this mindset. Some of these would be to prioritize my time and make the most of it when I have it. In conclusion, I find that life is a summation of choices and whatever has happened in your life, you can choose...
