Brand ''WAR''

The Dutch t-shirts are sponsored by Nike, the Spanish by Adidas. The World Championship final was not only a battle between the 2 countries but also a battle between the 2 brands. It’s like a war between them. Brands who are not official sponsored are trying to get the intention to people that ‘’they’’ are the official sponsor. That’s a kind of new marketing that companies is using.
For example, brands are broadcasting a view times the same commercial during a big tournament, so people will think that it’s a official sponsor.
The official sponsor of the World Championship is Adidas but a lot of people wouldn’t know. The rules by using other brands with the World Championship are very strictly. Because brands are paying millions of Euro’s to promote their selves. Brand can only be shown if it’s a shirt sponsor like Nike with The Netherlands or the different brands of football shoes. Big companies with the world Championship doesn’t focus only on the men anymore. The last tournament 48% of all people who watched football were girls. So lot’s of big companies chanced their tactic and has something for both. I think it’s bad that isn’t allowed to promote other brands during big tournaments, everyone has to have the same rights to promote. Tricks like the Bavaria babes is fantastic unique and original. It will give people fun and not only the strict rulen. What do you think about this?

Sony's 3d television is making a big march by WC

One of the main sponsors of the Fifa is Sony. With the Wc what was taken last summer in South Afrika, Sony introduced the new variant for watching television by promoting it on the Wc. They filmed all the football games in 3d. That’s the first time in history. Since the success film Avatar what is filmed in 3d, 3d is becoming more popular. The television industry is making a big march by introducing new televisions and has a lot of competitors already. The programs isn’t broadcasted on the Dutch channels because they haven’t got the opportunities . With the WC, Sony broadcasted all games on big 3d screens in the big capitals all over the world. Sony made a big branding with that. Dutch television channels are looking for opportunities , to broadcast all programs in 3d in the future. Right now you only have the opportunity to play games and to watch movies on 3d. Sony only has to wait for it, because they have the good name already. If the 3d television is introduced at all costumers, it will also help the trade for fair cd’s. It will not be possible to copies cd’s anymore. I think it will be a good innovation, but they have to find something that you can watch also television without 3d glasses. What do you think about this?
