Leisure promotion
Article Abstract:
The value of promotional work by leisure businesses in the UK rose by 96% in current price terms in the period 1992 to 1996, with many businesses now investing extensively in below the line promotional work, rather than focusing simply on direct display advertising. There has been a particular rise in promotional spending in the entertainment-based leisure sector, with a below-average rise in spending being seen in the activity-based leisure sector. There is likely to be a continued rise in the value of leisure promotions in the period to 2002.
