Why is it absurd? They bought that section of that broadcast, they can name it Pink Panties if they want to. These are the Sponsors of the Tournament, Don't you use Cooking Oil or a Pain Relief Spray at Home? Does it sound absurd then? Link to comment

Shane Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 From Barclays EPL to Kayamchuran English Premier League Wouldn't mind it a bit. If they have the money then why not. btw no one refers to the EPL as Barclays other than the Broadcasters. Link to comment
Shane Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Since its come down to this now, Let me paint a senario here, u are the head of a Broadcasting company where you have a 20 second sixes segment to sell, A Life Insurance Company offers you 1 Cr. Zandu Balm with 2 Cr. Kayamchuran comes to you with 3 Cr. Whom would you choose and be wise. Link to comment

Why didnt BCCI give the broadcasting rights to ZEE Sports few years ago even though their bid was higher than rest of the bidders?Becoz they were not sure of their broadcasting capabilities. Let me paint a scenario You have 2 guys bidding 1) Pappu da dhaba 5 cr 2.) McDonald 3 cr Whom would you choose? Link to comment

You would be a dumbfark to ignore Pappu Da Dhaba, would'nt you? Its all about money son, when it comes to sponsorship, Its all in an attempt in giving the product maximum exposure and so the long captions following the product name. Viru opened this topic on "Fortune Cooking Oil" discussing the absurd nature of the product, but he has in an inadvertent way advertised it to the rest of the ICF. Objective Achieved. Link to comment

Shane Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 And i have already said its not always about money.You didnt answer my question why didnt BCCI give the broadcasting rights to Zee sports few years ago when they were the highest bidder? We are talking about sponsors here, broadcasting is different, where various aspects other than the money is taken into considerations, there is a technical aspect of the company which is taken into consideration, experience in the field of sports broadcasting etc and its ability to handle the magnitude of the event, there is a Technical Bid and a Financial Bid. You can't mix broadcasting and advertising, Yes, Lux chaddi banyan comes knocking on the Broadcasters door with a bomb to offer, the CEO won't go on a factory visit to try them on, or to check whether the underwears are certified under a given certain standard etc. He would just gobble up the money and :finger: the rest. Its all about money in the World of Advertising. Link to comment
