Today, the pressure to demonstrate Marketing ROI has never been greater, and many companies are taking a more scientific approach to marketing, and treating it as a true business discipline. This means applying more rigor to capturing, analyzing and manipulating customer data, and delivering narrowly-defined messages designed to resonate with customers’ specific wants and needs. This process is called precision marketing. Based on extensive research and their own experience working with some of the world’s largest and most progressive marketing organizations, Jeff Zabin and co-author Gresh Brebach show how precision marketing can yield enormous business value. Writing in an engaging style that touches on everything from Renaissance thinking to Minority Report, they provide a definitive roadmap for combining precision marketing with mass marketing to cut costs, grow revenues, and create an overall competitive advantage.

Marketers around the globe are recognizing that increasing customization and precision is critical to their commercial success. Rather than devoting marketing budgets to mass campaigns, precision marketers are mining customer data for predispositions and propensities to spend, in order to target buyers in more sophisticated ways, where all communications are targeted and relevant to each individual recipient. Precision Marketing will help you to develop the perspectives, capabilities and skills necessary to deliver these more powerful marketing results. Drawing on case studies from companies such as Fiat, Amazon, Tesco and ING, Precision Marketing shows how today's leading performers are beginning to recognize, identify and capitalize on many of the concepts of precision marketing, to set themselves apart and reach a whole new level of growth.

Some might argue that sports marketing is a mere subfield of marketing, meaning that there are theoretical and practical dimensions that apply only to sports marketing and are only of interest to those involved in sports. In Team Sports Marketing, author Kirk Wakefield dispels this argument by demonstrating that effective sports marketing epitomizes the science and art of marketing across any context. At the core of sports marketing is the creation and enhancement of fan identification, where consumers are not just loyal customers, but have become brand fanatics. Team Sports Marketing shows that while many aspects of sports marketing are thought to be unique to the field, other product and service sectors would do well to learn from teams in the NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL that have transformed customers into fans. Moving beyond principles of marketing, Team Sports Marketing is packed with examples of best practices and covering subjects as diverse as sponsorships, season ticket sales, venue management and all topics in between. Team Sports Marketing is a must read text for students and managers in professional and collegiate sports. Support materials for professors and students are available at www.teamsportsmarketing.com.
