  • The Impact of Prize Money on Marathon Performance and Acclaim
    THE IMPACT OF PRIZE MONEY ON MARATHON PERFORMANCE AND ACCLAIM A THESIS Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Economics and Business The Colorado College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts By Colbert Heathcott March 2015 THE IMPACT OF PRIZE MONEY ON MARATHON PERFORMANCE AND ACCLAIM Colbert Heathcott March 2015 Economics Abstract In the past century, marathon running has become a major phenomenon in society. As a result, race participation and frequency have increased in the United States over the past decade. With the increased growth of the sport, the amount of money and the overall economic impact of races have risen, causing event organizers and sponsors to face decisions involving race awards and funding. Using an OLS regression model, this study examines the impact of prize money on marathon performance and acclaim. Results reveal marathon running to be exempt from incentive theory, as athletes do not perform better as a result of increases in winning prize money. Prize money also has no significant impact on the popularity of marathon events. Other factors, such as marathon location and history, significantly affect the acclaim of a marathon event. A thorough understanding on the impact of prize money is necessary for the future of the growing sport of marathon running. KEYWORDS: (Marathon, Incentive, Sports Marketing) ON MY HONOR, I HAVE NEITHER GIVEN NOR RECEIVED UNAUTHORIZED AID ON THIS THESIS Colbert Heathcott Signature Acknowledgments I would like to thank Dr. Judy Laux for advising me throughout the process of this research. I would also like to thank Will Richmond for Monday dinners, morning laps in the pool, and forcing me to go to the library.

AUTORAS: ANA LIZ CORDERO MALDONADO 0106445372 TANIA CAROLINA CORDERO GARZÓN 0105756399 TUTOR: ING. JUAN FERNANDO CASTILLO SERRANO 0103885630 CUENCA - ECUADOR 2018 UNIVERSIDAD DE CUENCA Resumen El presente trabajo investigativo tiene como objetivo conocer el impacto que tiene el visual merchandising en la recordación de marcas aplicadas en la tienda Marathon Sports, por ende, conocer el TOM, por sus siglas en inglés (arriba en la mente del consumidor en una categoría) y las preferencias de compra de calzado deportivo de las marcas Adidas, Nike y Puma. Actualmente, existe una gran diversidad de marcas en calzado deportivo importados, sin embargo, el comprador puede desconocer los beneficios, que da cada una de ellas, siendo importante que el producto se muestre y organice correctamente para facilitar la decisión de compra. El merchandising es una estrategia que además de influir en el comportamiento del consumidor, también, se encarga del diseño de la tienda, decoración de escaparates, iluminación, exhibidores y ambientes. Para Santamaría (2014), la misma se concibe como el juicio subjetivo de un consumidor sobre la excelencia o superioridad del producto. En la actualidad, no se evidencian estudios enfocados en conocer, porque, se prefiere un tipo de marca de calzado deportivo, por ello, que se considera necesario investigar algunas variables dentro del proceso comercial al momento de realizar la compra, por lo que el presente trabajo está enfocado determinar la influencia del visual merchandising en la recordación de marca y preferencia de compra de ciertas marcas reconocidas a nivel mundial.

Julie Vandenhouweele en Thomas Rötgens VOORWOORD Graag willen wij onze promoter Annick Willem bedanken voor de ondersteuning tijdens deze scriptieperiode. Ook onze begeleidster Steffie Lucidarme verdient lovende woorden voor haar goede voorstellen bij moeilijke stukken en voor haar terechte opmerkingen. Buiten de academische omgeving willen we de organisatoren van de loopwedstrijden bedanken, nl. Tim Rul van de Sfinx Ekiden Run, Geert Gysel van de Midzomernachtrun (Gent Loopt) en Greg Broekmans, werknemer bij Golazo Sports en organisator van de Antwerp 10 Miles & Marathon. Zonder hun steun zouden wij nooit aan voldoende respons voor onze enquêtes geraakt zijn en zou deze thesis niet tot stand gekomen zijn.

Tot slot ook een dankwoord aan onze familie en vrienden die op één of andere manier ons geholpen hebben met deze thesis.
