As leagues have entered into long-term broadcast deals, sponsorship presents a prime opportunity to grow sport revenues and brands. Dr. Cornwell's background and expertise make this book one that any sport manager should read as it provides the necessary insights and guidance to maximize the benefits and opportunities presented by sponsorship." - Alicia Jessop, Associate Professor of Sport Administration at Pepperdine University, USA."Professor Cornwell’s book is the best you could find for sponsorship/partnership. The book goes beyond theory and gives practical tools to apply in both the educational and professional sponsorship environment. In my case, it helped me through my sponsorship courses, and I am ready to use some of Prof. Cornwell’s models, like the 100-point model, in a future project as a sponsorship consultant. Recently, the book also helped me make sense of a real ambush situation in sponsorship." – Jimmy Castillo, independent sponsorship consultant and former Regional Sales Manager, Americas, at Swiss Timing (Swatch Group).
