본문/내용
첫째, 스폰서 활동이 다른 커뮤니케이션 활동 또는 프로모션 테크닉과의 차별성을 분명히 제시해주지 못하고 있으며, 둘째, 여러 가지 다양한 유형의 스폰서 활동에 있어서 미리 정한 목표와 실제로 나타난 결과 사이의 관계를 분명히 제시해주지 못하고 있고, 셋째, 다양한 소비자 그룹과 공중들에 있어서 스폰서 활동 효과측정을 위해 사용되는 측정방법이 개발되지 못하고 있다는 점이다. 아울러 학문적 요구에 바탕을 둔 기초 이론 및 개념정립이 부족하다는 문제점을 지니고 있다. 특히, 스폰서 활동 연구에 대한 이러한 문제점 및 결핍은 한국적 상황에서 더욱 분명하게 드러나고 있다. 마케팅 수단으로서 스폰서가 갖는 위상은 높아졌지만 그것의 효율성이나 전략적 측면에서의 평가는 전혀 이뤄지지 않고 있는 한국 상황에서는 이러한 문제점 극복 이전에 미국을 비롯한 스폰서 활동 선진국에서 수행되어진 지금까지의 연구흐름마저 쫓아가지 못하고 있는 실정이다.
3. 연구방법 및 연구문제
본 연구는 매출액 기준 300대 기업을 대상으로, 기업 내에서 커뮤니케이션 전략으로서 스폰서 활동이 갖는 위치를 확인하고, 스폰서 활동의 구체적인 내역 및 규모를 파악하며, 기업 내 PR 담당자들의 스폰서 활동에 대한 태도, 목표와 동기, 결정요인평가, 효과측정방법 등에 대해 어떻게 평가하고 있는지를 관찰하고자 한다. 본 연구는 이메일 설문 방법을 통하여 조사가 이뤄질 것이며, 이메일 응답률이 낮을 경우 보완적으로 우편설문방법이 활용될 것이다. 분석과정에서는 스폰서 활동기업과 비(非) 스폰서 활동기업간(間), 대규모 스폰서 활동기업과 소규모 스폰서 활동 기업간(間), 전문적인 스폰서 활동기업과 비전문적인 스폰서 활동기업간(間)의 비교가 이뤄질 것이며, 스폰서 활동을 둘러싸고 그들 그룹 간에 존재하는 유의미한 차이를 검증함으로써 커뮤니케이션 전략으로써 기업 스폰서활동의 새로운 가능성을 모색해보고자 한다.
본 연구에서는 다음과 같은 몇 가지 문제에 답하고자 한다.
