“Adidas has launched its biggest ever campaign to support its sponsorship of the World Cup and tellingly has opted to spend more on digital marketing than TV ads”

I felt this quote was needed as it shows that Adidas used most of its promotion on digital media rather than TV adds for the first time showing the importance of social media and the power it now has.


“The importance, and power, of a social media strategy is underlined by Twitter which says there have already been more posts about the World Cup before a ball has been kicked in Brazil than for the entire tournament in 2010.”

This shows how social media has moved on from four years ago. In that social media has become a norm to people and their everyday lives. To show that there had been more tweets about the 2014 world cup before it had even started over the whole of the 2010 tournament shows in itself





“Germany’s World Cup final victory over Argentina smashed global records on Twitter, and has become the biggest sporting event in Facebook’s history”




“However, Germany's defeat of Argentina was the World Cup's biggest moment, generating more than 618,000 tweets per minute, ahead of the 580,000 tweets per minute sparked by the team's fifth goal against Brazil in the semi-final.”


“When Luis Suarez took a piece out of Giorgio Chiellini, Twitter traffic confirmed what had occurred before the commentary did.”
“In the past they could get away with it, but now they’re competing with thousands of expert observers who are searching for every detail, who’ve spotted James Rodriguez looking over his shoulder and lining up his epic shot at the same time as the pundits have.”
“I tweeted “Prince Harry’s having a ’mare” and sat back to congratulate myself on my originality. What I ought to have known is that others were having precisely the same thought and many of them were tweeting it.”



“74.2% of viewers will be on social media during the World Cup.”


“42% of viewers are likely to be posting about their favorite ads and 52% are likely to follow or like a brand.”

“92% of people trust the recommendations they receive from friends and family above all other forms of advertising. This means that you can push your content out to your audience, but it may go unnoticed unless someone they trust tells them to pay attention.”



“The number of Adidas tweets has been increasing, averaging 12.2 million per day in the week”

“With five minutes to go in the match, Adidas' Mr. Hughes tells the team three pieces of content are ready to go if Germany wins: a Hummels photo, a Vine video of his goal and a group shot in case another German player also scores.”
