...Sport Management We were given the task to explore three websites that define their own version of what sport management actually in tales and how it is applied in the real world as we know it. The first website we were ask to look through for a definition is called the North American Society for Sport Management. When looking through this site I found they stated that NASSM is actively involved in supporting and assisting professionals working in the fields of sport, leisure and recreation. The purpose of the North American Society for Sport Management is to promote, stimulate, and encourage study, research, scholarly writing, and professional development in the area of sport management - both theoretical and applied aspects (North American Society For Sport Management, 2013).

...Executive Summary Multivariate data is a key part of any interaction in business. The data can be used to anticipate the effect of several variables. Multivariate relationships involve multiple independent variables affecting a dependent variable. These independent variables have a distinct and measurable effect on the dependent variable. These relationships can be used by managers to make decisions. The example given is that of an automobile manufacturer that uses the data to change the methods of scheduled maintenance without affecting the longevity of the vehicle. Multivariate data can show managers how different aspects can affect an outcome. Multivariate Data Multivariate data is a system of relationships that governs nearly any interactions between objects. These data relationships show how one set of variables can have an effect on another. Whenever something happens, it happens because of many factors that come into play; several things have to come together to create the effect observed. This is true of things in nature, occurrences in life, and decisions in business. Multivariate relationships are everywhere, and the effect they have is widespread. The ability to recognize and analyze these variables can be a strong asset in business management as understanding what drives certain effects can allow a manager to more accurately predict outcomes. Being able to accurately model what is going to happen is a distinct advantage for any manager. ...

...Introduction: Integrated marketing communication is often compared to an orchestra. Just as an orchestra’s performance is guided by a musical score, an IMC campaign must have a written score, or plan. This plan details which marketing communication functions and which media are to be used at which times and to what extent. An IMC campaign plan is a written document. It can be as minimal as a set of organized notes by a person running a small retail business or as complex as a 100-page document for a multimillion-euro brand campaign. But all good plans, regardless of size, have six basic elements: • Targeting (designated customers and prospects) • SWOT analysis • Objectives • Strategies and tactics • Budget • Evaluation The planning process begins with the selection of the desired audience for the brand message. Research then determines the strengths and weaknesses of a company or brand from the perspective of customers and prospects. Planning also takes into consideration marketplace opportunities and threats—the things that companies cannot control but can leverage or address to their advantage. Different Researchers and authors define this marketing activity in different perspectives the most famous definitions are as follow: “Integrated marketing communication is a process for planning, executing & monitoring the brand messages that create customer relationships, (Duncan, 2005)” “IMC is the coordination and integration of all marketing communication tools...

The use of special effects can create excitement and grab the attention of the target audience. Reach: Television advertising can reach a large percentage of the population on either a national or regional level. Call to action: Television provides a ‘call to action’, compelling the viewer to do something. For example, ‘Ring in the next five minutes’, or ‘Go to our website’. Influence: Television has become an integral part of our culture. The majority of Australians use television as the primary source for news and entertainment.

The German manufacturer, through its marketing strategy which rests on a favorable brand image, has evolved into a large multinational enterprise. In keeping with the brand image is its association with the distinctive logo and its advertising slogan, "Impossible is Nothing." In order to maintain and sustain this image, the company makes huge investments in advertising and brand promotion. At the critical time of global economic crisis, Adidas will react to the consumers’ pessimistic attitude and stressful emotion during this period. It may become a good chance for Adidas because it can take advantage of its previous advertising way of “Impossible is Nothing” campaign by sponsoring sports stars to express the corporate philosophy of grit, determination, passion and humor, giving people more courage and psychological comfort in face of economic crisis. But besides that, we also focus more about family function especially in Asian countries which emphasize a lot on family, which can provide caring emotional communication.

...YOUR ECONOMETRICS PAPER BASIC TIPS There are a couple of websites that you can browse to give you some ideas for topics and data. Think about what you want to do with this paper. Econometrics is a great tool to market when looking for jobs. A well-written econometrics paper and your presentation can be a nice addition to your resume. You are not expected to do original research here. REPLICATION of prior results is perfectly acceptable. Read Studenmund's Chapter 11. One of the most frustrating things in doing an econometrics paper is finding the data. Do not spend a lot of time on a topic before determining whether there is data available that will allow you to answer your question. It is a good idea to write down your ideal data set that would allow you to address your topic. If you find that the available data is not even close to what you had originally desired, you might want to change your topic. Also, remember that knowing the location of your data – website, reference book, etc – is not the same as having your data available to use. It may take a LONG time to get the data in a format that EVIEWS can read. Do not leave this till the last minute. For most data, I enter the data into Excel first. I save the Excel sheet in the oldest version, namely MS Excel Worksheet 2.1 . The reason is that format can be read by most programs whereas newer formats may or may not be read. Eviews easily reads an Excel sheet 2.1 version. You should use the...
