...Life changed for Dorothy Samson in an Indian orphanage. Seeing the incredible needs of the children there, the Colorado resident knew she could make a difference. So started a journey that led her to Compassion International and its unique child sponsorship program. Now, after just five years working with the ministry, 25 children count on Samson for prayers, letters and support. “They crawl up into my lap; they call me ‘Auntie Dorothy,'” Samson said. “They are my children.” Although Samson never had children of her own, that didn’t stop her from sharing her love and compassion with little ones. “I always wanted to have 12 children with an abundance of boys,” Samson said. From her home in Grand Junction, Samson began her Compassion sponsorship experience in 1999 with four children from India and one from Haiti. That number soon grew to 13 children, and she got that abundance of boys. Later, when she learned that there was a need for sponsors for African children, she didn’t hesitate to take on even more. “Compassion told me that there was a lack of sponsors for African children because of the HIV/AIDS problem,” Samson said. “I can understand people wanting to invest their money in children who are certain to grow up to be healthy, productive adults. But all children are precious, even those who might be HIV-positive. They aren’t responsible for having the disease – they are innocent victims, and they, too, deserve the opportunity to have a happy childhood and...

...critical thinking especially in a professional setting. (Bateman & Snell, 2007) Critical thinking can be defined as "the intellectually disciplined process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating information gathered from, or generated by, observation, experience, reflection, reasoning, or communication, as a guide to belief and action" (Scriven & Paul, p3). In reality, critical thinking is a process that removes fact from fiction and analyzes potential outcomes of different potential decisions. For a business, fact based decisions maintain a company’s reputation and integrity. At US Cellular, critical thinking is a necessary competency for a leadership role. Many decisions including deciding what sponsorships to invest our money into are complex issues that requires careful analysis and foresight to consider potential outcomes of what sponsorships are chosen. In 2010, a decision had to be made on our sports sponsorships. From a budget standpoint, we could only invest in one of the sponsorships and needed that sponsorship to provide us with as much positive exposure in the community as possible. Our group set up meetings with the sports divisions of each school to have them present what they could offer US Cellular and at what cost. The first school, sponsor “A” presented our team with a PowerPoint presentation and...

...CUTTING EDGE: OUR WEEKLY ANALYSIS OF MARKETING NEWS 12 March 2014 Welcome to our weekly analysis of the most useful marketing news for CIM, CAM and Sales Leadership Alliance members. Quick links to sections Marketing trends and issues Advertising Consumer perceptions of expense This study examines whether consumers make judgments about brands not just on the basis of what is communicated in advertising but on how the message is communicated. In particular it investigates the effect of perceived advertising expense and effort of the advertiser. An analysis of 4,000 consumers reveals that ads with higher-thanaverage perceived expense and effort have a positive effect on brand attitude, brand interest and word-of-mouth. In contrast ads with lower perceived expense have negative effects. International Journal of Advertising. Vol 33(1) 2014, pp137154 (Modig et al) Digital could make up for loss of print Online publishers and news websites enjoyed advertising growth of 18% last year according to the Association of Online Publishers (AOP) and Deloitte. Their data indicates that digital revenues grew at their fastest rate since 2008; this has been attributed to the rise of mobile, since advertising on smartphones rose by 60% in the last quarter of 2013. Deloitte says it expects publishers to innovate with flexible pricing such as a mixture of paid-for and free ad-funded models. Some publishers are already indicating that digital revenues are making up...

For example a company hires a venue such as the Hinitze Hall in the Natural History Museum which offers galleries for a range of evening events with catering facilities and staff which will be used only by the business team. Team-building events Team building events are events in which members of a business bond together and get them to work effectively as a team instead of as individuals. Team building events are held to enhance the social relations and define roles within teams often involving collaborative tasks. For example Sandstone is a team-building events company. Incentives Incentive events are held by corporations to reward their employees or customers for hard work and loyalty or to motivate them to improve and develop their performance. An example of an incentive event is the Incentives and Promotional Marketing Show Live which is held at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham by Waypoint Exhibition and Event Group.

...considerations of celebrity advertising, and potential risks of celebrity advertising. Next, we develop several propositions and discuss the conclusions and managerial implications of the research. Field of research: Celebrity advertising, Celebrity endorsers, Sponsorship, Celebrity spokespeople 1. Introduction A celebrity endorser is “an individual who is known to the public (actor, sports figure, entertainer, etc) for his or her achievements in areas other than that of the product class endorsed” (Friedman & Friedman 1979). Sponsorship is defined as “providing support for and associating the organization‟s name with events, programs, or even people such as athletes or teams” (Peter & Donnelly 2006). Corporations have chosen both sponsorship and celebrity endorsement as means to increase exposure and brand awareness, as well as reposition their products. The terms celebrity endorsement and sponsorship will be used interchangeably in this report. It has been estimated that about 10% of the dollars spent on television advertising are used in celebrity endorsement advertisements (Agrawal & Kamakura 1995). Because of its importance, it is imperative for managers to be able to determine what impact a particular sponsorship will have on different aspects of a brand‟s performance such as brand preference, brand loyalty, and, ultimately, sales and profitability (Aaker 1991; Keller 2008). In this paper I will review selected aspects of research on celebrity advertising, discuss the...
