Examining Sport Advertisements: The Effect Of Cause-Related Marketing (Crm) Messages And Endorsements, Antonio S. Williams, Dae Yeon Kim, Alexandria Pantaleoni

Global Sport Business Journal

By conducting an experiment using fictitious advertisements, the study found that both CRM and endorser-cause fit (ECF) have a positive impact on consumers’ attitude towards advertisement (Aad), brand (Abr), and purchase intention (PI).
