Some companies sponsor sports as a way to advertise themselves. Some people think it is good while others think there are disadvantages. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
Sponsoring
sports
has become a common way for companies
to market themselves. Advocates for this
idea believe that this
can make companies
popular and well known while others think that there are drawbacks to this
. In this
essay, I will outline both opinions and state why I believe that companies
should advertise themselves in sport sponsoring.
To begin
with, some people believe that companies
should be spending money
on sponsoring sports
because this
is a win-win situation. Sports
need funds to keep on going and companies
with benefit from the popularity of sports
to advertise for their goods. For example
, football players wear t-shirts on which some companies
print their logo and consequently
all the fans will get the same t-shirt making the advertisement go viral. The more popular the game the faster the company will be known.
On the other hand
, opponents of this
idea think that this
is just a waste of money
. They believe that companies
can get advertised through television or street ads with way less amount of money
than that spent on sports
. The money
saved from sponsoring sports
can be spent in making attractive offers for the public. For instance
, a reduced price offer can attract a lot of people during the offer time. The less money
spent on advertisements the more attractive offers they can make.
In conclusion, a growing number of companies
choose to advertise themselves through sponsoring sports
. Despite some opinions who believe there are better ways of marketing for companies
while spending less money
, I believe that this
is a great way of advertisement as it is done for a good cause which is supporting players and at the same time getting advantage from their popularity. In the end, it is a win-win situation.Submitted by mariam.elmenabawy on
