摘要足球是一项受到全球关注的运动,不管是在世界杯、欧冠、联赛还是在足总杯,它都受到广大球迷的追捧。它的影响力早就已经超出了场内的几万名观众,我们可以说,足球已经不仅仅是一项体育运动了,它已经形成了一个产业。许多俱乐部都会采取不同的营销策略来使俱乐部获得盈利。而曼彻斯特联俱乐部肯定是其中的一个成功营销案例,根据统计,它在全球拥有超过3.3亿的球迷,曼联这个品牌的价值高达14.95亿美元,远远高于其他足球俱乐部。目前,许多学者开始关注体育方面的营销,也有不少学者针对足球俱乐部方面的营销展开研究,但是针对特定的俱乐部的营销就显得更加少,而通过案例这种方式进行研究的就更加少了。但是,足球俱乐部的经营在一定程度上具有很大的相似性,通过对曼联俱乐部的营销策略进行分析,可以让我们深入了解在足球俱乐部这个特殊的行业中,其关键的成功要素是什么,而且对于中国足球俱乐部的营销以及品牌建设起到一定的建议作用。本文将会通过对曼联俱乐部所面临的营销环境入手,分析曼联营销的机遇、威胁、优势以及劣势,然后再深入了解曼联俱乐部的营销策略,然后再在次基础上剖析是哪一些要素促使曼联俱乐部获得营销上的成功,然后再在此基础上,结合中国足球俱乐部的实际,对中国足球俱乐部提出一些改善的建议。关键词:曼彻斯特联,足球俱乐部,营销战略,成功要素ABSTRACTFootballisacampaignbytheglobalconcern,whetherintheWorldCup,ChampionsLeagueorFACup,whicharesoughtafterbyfans.Itsinfluencehaslongbeenbeyondthefloorofthetensofthousandsofspectators.Wecansaythatfootballismorethanjustakindofsport,andithasalreadybeenformedintoanindustry.Manyclubswillmaketheirclubrichbydifferentmarketingstrategies.TheManchesterUnitedClubiscertainlyoneofthemostsuccessfulmarketingcases.Accordingtostatistics,ithasmorethan330millionworldwidefans,thevalueofitsbrandishighasmuchas1.495billionU.S.dollars,farhigherthanotherfootballclubs.Currently,manyscholarsbegantopayattentiontothesportsmarketing.Therearemanyscholarsdoresearchtothemarketingofthefootballclub,buttheclub-specificmarketingwillbecomeevenmoreless.Throughcasestudiesinfootballclubisevenless.However,footballclubshasmamysimilaritytosomeextent.TheresearchofManchesterUnited'smarketingstrategywillallowsuslookinsightintothefootballclub,andthenwewillfindoutthekeysuccessfactor,andwilldohelptoChinesefootballclubinthemarketingandbrandingbuilding.Thispaperstartfromtheanalysisofthemarketingenvironments,whichincludetheoutsideenvironment,insideenvironmentandthecompetitor.Thenwewillanalysisitsproductstrategy,promotionstrategy,placestrategyandbrandstrategy.AndthenwewilanalyzethefactorswhichmakeManchesterUnitedClubsuccessful.FinallywewillmakesomerecommendationsforimprovementtotheChinesefootballclubsbasedontheirfacts.Keyword:ManchesterUnitedClub,FootballClubs,MarketingStrategy,FactorsofSuccess目录摘要...................................................................................................................................................IABSTRACT...................................................................................................................................II第一章绪论....................................................................................................................................11.1研究背景.............................................................................................................................11.2文献综述.............................................................................................................................21.2.1曼联研究综述..............................
