The role of brand/cause fit in the effectiveness of cause-related marketing campaigns
Article Abstract:
The impact of cause-related marketing (CRM) on consumer perceptions of the sponsoring brand or firm is addressed, and the individual differences in attitudes toward charitable organizations and attitudes toward helping others are examined. It was found that the value of CRM does not justify its cost, at least in terms of short-term sales, thus implications for the selection of optimal donation levels for CRM campaigns are discussed.
