Exhibit 17-17 KitchenAid supports the fight against<br />

breast cancer<br />

nude females. The ad for America’s pharmaceutical companies (Exhibit 17-16) casts<br />

the industry in a very favorable light. In 2002 Philip Morris Company, Inc., shareholders<br />

voted to change the company’s name to Altria Group, Inc. Altria is derived<br />

from the Latin word meaning to “reach higher.” Philip Morris CEO, Geoffrey Bible,<br />

said that the name was being changed to reflect the fact that the company was no<br />

longer just a cigarette company and that the new name better reflects its diversity.<br />

Others contend the move was an attempt to disassociate itself from the negative<br />

image of cigarettes.<br />

2. Sponsorships. A firm often runs corporate image advertising on TV programs or specials.<br />

For example, the Hallmark or IBM specials and documentaries on network TV<br />

and Mobil and Gulf Oil program sponsorships on public TV are designed to promote<br />

the corporation as a good citizen. By associating itself with high-quality or educational<br />

programming, the firm hopes for a carryover effect that benefits its own<br />

image.<br />

Other examples of sponsorships include those run by Outback Steak<br />

House (LUPUS), Providian Financial (children and youth), McDonald’s<br />

(UNICEF), and GM (Make-A-Wish). Exhibit 17-17 shows KitchenAid’s<br />

sponsorship of the fight against breast cancer.<br />

Visa considers sponsorships an important part of its integrated marketing<br />

communications. It has sponsored the Olympics, the U.S. decathlon team, U.S.<br />

basketball’s dream team, the U.S. Gymnastics Federation, the U.S. Open Tennis<br />

Championships, and Major League Baseball’s All-Star game. According to<br />

John Bennett, senior VP for international marketing communications, the<br />

sponsorships are designed to fulfill specific business objectives while providing<br />

support for the recipients. 32 Figure 17-6 shows a few of the companies that<br />

decided an Olympic sponsorship would be good for them.<br />

3. Recruiting. The Mattel piece presented in Exhibit 17-18 is a good example<br />

of corporate image advertising designed to attract new employees. If you<br />

are interested in working in an innovative and family-oriented company, you<br />

might be interested in Mattel.
