brand awareness

TV is used for broad ad campaigns that build brand awareness.

The program was started in 2022 to raise “brand awareness and fandom beyond the U.S., through fan engagement, events, commercial opportunities and NFL Flag development,” the NFL said.

Whether they’re doing it intentionally or not, these simple nods are great ways to drum up brand awareness and name recognition for everyone involved.

“These kinds of docuseries that are based around teams and athletes and leagues are definitely creating brand awareness and creating interest because it’s storytelling,” said Joseph Recupero, a former sports documentary filmmaker who is now an associate professor in the sports media program at Toronto Metropolitan University.

The long-tail payoff has played out in other avenues too, like the hyper-weird Pop-Tart Bowl Ritual Sacrifice, which burns any hope of making sense on the altar of “becoming a meme template to raise brand awareness.”
