Exploring saturation levels for sponsorship logos on professional sports shirts: a cross-cultural study

Abstract: The study extends the research on visual imagery in advertising to sports marketing. The results suggest that excessive on-shirt advertising is wasteful for sponsorships and harmful for team image. However, a strategy of moderate advertising increases the brand recall rate and does not harm the team's image. From a managerial perspective, this study highlights the risks of excessive use of sponsor logos and provides a framework for determining the optimal level of on-shirt advertising for professional teams.

“…The second analysis of co-variance showed that visual attention does influence brand recall, which is in line with previous eye-tracking research (Breuer and Rumpf, 2012). The results also showed that recall increases when the clutter decreases, which is also in line with the previous literature (Breuer and Rumpf, 2012; McDonald and Karg, 2015; Mikhailitchenko et al , 2012).…”

“…A typical way of claiming value for sponsors in Swedish football is to offer exposure on team shirts, which often leads to a high number of visible sponsors. However, this is a quite harmful path to follow since it has a negative effect on club image and is wasteful for individual sponsors (Mikhailitchenko et al, 2012). Exposure on match day has a positive effect on sponsor brand loyalty (Vale et al, 2009), but it is quite important to strive for a balance between number of sponsors and potential turnover when attracting sponsors.…”
