Impact on Consideration
Based on a study by SRi, completed in April 2015
SPONSORSHIP IMPACT STUDY During the 2015-16 season, the HEAT teamed up with Navigate, an industry leader in sponsorship research and evaluation, to conduct a study designed to gauge the impact of long term, high spend HEAT partners. Results from the survey showed a positive lift across all metrics. Miami Heat fans are more likely to be influenced by the sponsorship than non-fans, demonstrated by the large lifts seen among fans over non-fans in the brand metrics (Brand Impact, Purchase Influence, and Good Fit). Aware fans score higher than unaware fans in the purchase funnel metrics (Consideration, Purchase Intent and Likelihood to Recommend), indicating that the sponsorship successfully influences fans to consider HEAT partners once they become aware.
