Sponsorship Accountability Roadmap 2nd Edition Published

MASB’s Sponsorship Accountability Metrics Project has published an updated, second edition of Sponsorship Accountability: A Roadmap for Sponsorship Marketing Success by Karen Ebben, Tony Pace, Ray Katz, Frank Findley, Henrik Christensen, and Mike Wokosin.

In this collection of works, MASB members share recommendations to improve the accountability of sponsorships, identifying marketing practices across the sports and entertainment industries that improve value. This includes a measurement approach that is independent, objective and marketer-directed, along with guidance on mid-funnel ROO measures that make quantification attainable.

As in the first edition published in May 2024, the appendices include a breakdown of the eSports Ecosystem and a Glossary of Terms from the Universal Marketing Dictionary.
