Will marketer's woes dent World Cup?

Article Abstract:

The soccer World Cup in 2002 has eleven major sponsors signed on, but the sports marketing agency handling these accounts is appealing a Swiss court's bankruptcy proceeding against it. The agency in trouble is International Sports Media & Marketing, ISMM. The global television exposure is the alluring factor as is the attendant profits for both advertisers and ISMM. In fact the proceeds could help ISMM get out from under its debt woes. If it loses the appeal, the International Federation of Association Football, would pass the lucrative marketing deal along to another company.
