The document discusses research on the Mahindra Blues Festival audience in Mumbai, India. It finds that supporting the arts can benefit companies by positively influencing consumer perceptions of those companies. The Mahindra Group backs the blues festival and other arts initiatives both for their inherent social benefits, but also because research shows arts funding can boost business values like reputation. A survey of the festival audience found they view companies that support the arts favorably and said Mahindra's sponsorship could influence purchase decisions, indicating Mahindra likely gains value from its arts funding.

“Blues
and
Business”:
A
profile
of
the
Mahindra
Blues
Festival
audience

Introduction
The
Mahindra
Group
has
a
tradition
of
supporting
arts
initiatives,
including
the
Mahindra
Blues
Festival,
a
blues
music
festival
in
Mumbai.
Although
Mahindra
backs
these
initiatives
because
the
company
believes
they
are
inherently
good
for
society,
recent
research
on
corporate
philanthropy
reveals
that
arts
and
social
initiatives
like
these
can
actually
create
business
value
for
those
companies
that
support
the
arts.
I
set
out,
through
a
survey,
to
profile
the
Mahindra
Blues
Festival
audience
and
understand
if
the
audience
develops
positive
perceptions
about
companies
that
support
the
arts,
and
whether
the
audience
believes
that
Mahindra’s
giving
would
influence
their
purchasing
decisions.
These
are
important
questions
because
corporate-‐philanthropy
research
shows
that
support
for
the
arts
and
for
other
social
initiatives
benefits
companies
via
the
positive
impact
on
those
companies’
reputation.
Though
I
cannot
establish
here
that
Mahindra’s
sales
benefit
from
Mahindra’s
arts
giving,
I
do
establish
that
the
Mahindra
Blues
Festival
audience’s
views
of
a
company’s
reputation
are
shaped
by
that
company’s
backing
of
the
arts.
We
can
therefore
suggest
that
the
Mahindra
Group
likely
gains
business
value
from
its
arts
giving.
Background
Several
studies
have
found
that
corporate
giving
to
the
arts
and
other
social
initiatives
can
increase
a
company’s
revenues
by
influencing
consumer
behaviors,
such
as
customer
loyalty
and
recommendations.

Giving
can
also
help
protect
a
company’s
share
price
2
and
revenues
from
a
negative
event
and
the
subsequent
negative
publicity.

Support
for
the
arts
might
even
create
positive
press:
Humana,
the
American
health-‐insurance
company,
sponsors
a
five-‐week
theatre
festival
in
the
U.S.,
from
which
3
plays
have
gone
on
to
win
Pulitzers
and
which
generates
media
buzz
in
which
the
festival
and
the
Humana
name
are
mentioned.

In
all
these
studies,
giving
to
the
arts
or
to
broader
social
initiatives
benefits
the
company
by
creating
a
positive
reputation
and
positive
perceptions

the
company
in
stakeholders’
eyes.
In
order
to
reap
those
advantages,
therefore,
corporate
philanthropy
must
create
positive
perceptions
about
the
company
overall.
Many
businesses
have
caught
on
to
this
strategy:
over
41%
of
the
600
companies
surveyed
by
the
Business
Committee
for
the
Arts,
an
American
council
that
promotes
the
intersection
of
business
and
the
arts,
gave
money
to
or
led
their
own
arts
initiatives.
8
Additionally,
over
47%
of
companies
with
revenues
of
$50
million
or
more
gave
to
the
arts,
9
suggesting
that
all
types
of
companies
detect
the
benefits.
In
fact,
only
12%
of
executives
or
representatives
of
the
companies
surveyed
said
that
supporting
the
arts
“does
not
suit
business
interests/
is
not
a
priority.”
10
There
is
a
growing
trend
for
arts
giving
in
India
as
well.
For
example,
the
Tata
group
of
companies
helped
found
Mumbai’s
National
Centre
for
Performing
Arts
as
far
back
as
1966,
in
order
to
promote
and
preserve
the
arts
in
India.
11
More
recently,
India’s
YES
Bank
sponsored
New
Delhi’s
huge
India
Art
Fair
2014,
and
ZEE
TV
supported
the
Jaipur
Literature
Festival
(For
more
information
about
the
arts
abroad
and
in
India,
see
Appendix
2).
Clearly,
businesses
across
the
world
of
all
shapes
and
sizes
seem
to
have
established,
or
are
convinced,
that
giving
benefits
their
business.
Objective
1) To
determine
if
the
Mahindra
Blues
Festival
audience
has
positive
perceptions
about
companies
that
support
the
arts.
2) To
determine
if
the
Mahindra
Blues
Festival
audience
believes
Mahindra’s
support
for
the
arts
would
influence
their
purchasing
decisions.
Methodology
To
determine
if
a
company’s
support
for
the
arts
influences
the
Mahindra
Blues
Festival
audience’s
perceptions
of
a
company,
we
conducted
a
three-‐question
survey
(Appendix
1)
in
two
locations:
1) The
Mahindra
Blues
Festival.
15-‐16
February,
2014.
Mumbai.
2) The
Mahindra
Blues
Festival
Facebook
page.
The
survey
asked
customers
to
state,
on
a
scale
of
1-‐7,
how
strongly
they
agreed
or
disagreed
with
3
statements
(1=Strongly
Disagree;
7=Strongly
Agree).
The
first
two
statements
(Q1
and
Q2)
tried
to
determine
if
a
company’s
support
for
the
arts
would
create
positive
perceptions
about
that
company.
In
Q1,
if
an
audience
member
agreed
that
companies
should
support
the
arts,
then
indirectly
we
assumed
that
a
company
that
supports
the
arts
meets
that
expectation,
and
thus
creates
a
positive
perception.
In
Q2,
we
directly
asked
if
a
company’s
support
for
the
arts
creates
a
positive
perception.
In
Q3,
we
asked
if
an
audience
member
will
consider
Mahindra’s
support
for
the
arts
specifically
when
making
a
purchase
in
the
future.
A
positive
response
supports
previous
research
that
corporate
philanthropy
can
influence
a
company’s
sales,
whether
positively
or
negatively.
However,
our
survey
did
not
determine
the
type
of
impact;
that
is
a
question
for
future
study.
At
Mahindra
Blues
Festival,
a
surveyor
had
a
table
during
the
festival’s
two
days,
and
offered
passerby
the
chance
to
enter
a
contest
to
meet
the
festival’s
artists
backstage
by
taking
the

survey.

to
take
the

the
number
of

was
only
17,
less
than
10%
of
the

Therefore,
the
Mahindra

audience
believes
strongly
that

should
support
the

and
the
audience
has
good
thoughts
about
those

therefore,
the
audience’s
perception
of
a
company
is
positively
enhanced
if
that
company
supports
the
arts.
Q3
has
a
high

answer
(5.94)
meaning
that
the
Mahindra

agrees
that
Mahindra’s

the
arts
will
influence
its
purchasing
decisions.
However,
the

Conclusion
Based
on
our
results,
we
conclude
that
the
Mahindra
Blues
Festival
audience
will
develop
positive
perceptions
of
companies
that
support
the
arts,
and
that
Mahindra’s
support
for
the
arts
will
influence
their
purchasing
decisions.
On
Q1,
the
audience
expressed
the
expectation
that
companies
should
support
the
arts;
therefore,
companies
that
do,
win
the
approval
of
the
audience.
In
Q2,
the
audience
very
clearly
agreed
that
they
have
positive
thoughts
about
those
companies.
We
can
therefore
infer
that
the
Mahindra
Blues
Festival
audience
most
likely
develops
positive
perceptions
about
the
Mahindra
Group
itself,
since
Mahindra
supports
the
arts.
Additionally,
though
we
cannot
confirm
this
with
our
survey,
it
is
likely
that
Mahindra’s
arts
initiatives
activate
the
benefits
of
corporate
giving,
via
an
enhanced
corporate
reputation,
as
discussed
in
our
introduction
(i.e.
higher
revenues,
insurance
against
loss
in
share
price,
etc.).
We
discuss
a
few
interesting
results:
1) The
audience
agreed
least
with
Q3:
I
will
consider
Mahindra’s
support
for
the
arts
(Mahindra
Blues
Festival,
Excellence
in
Theater
Awards,
etc.)
when
making
purchases
in
the
future.
Unfortunately,
it
is
not
clear
if
the
agreement
was
lowest
because
it
mentioned
Mahindra
specifically,
or
because
people
are
generally
skeptical
that
corporate
giving
would
influence
their
buying
behavior.
However,
even
if
the
audience
does
not
believe
Mahindra’s
giving
would
influence
their
purchasing,
the
positive
reputation
and
brand
positioning
created
by
the
arts
initiatives
might
indirectly
or
subtly
factor
into
their
decisions,
as
suggested
by
the
background
research
we
discussed.
We
must
follow
up
on
this
with
further
study,
perhaps
by
tracking
purchases
made
by
people
who
participate
in
or
know
about
Mahindra’s
arts
initiatives.
Of
course,
perhaps
people
who
view
the
Mahindra
brand
favorably
already,
or
who
often
buy
Mahindra
products,
are
probably
more
likely
to
engage
with
the
arts
initiatives,
so
it
is
important
to
control
for
that
factor
in
studies
that
track
purchasing
decisions.
2) Middle-‐aged
people
agreed
most
strongly
out
of
the
three
age
groups
with
all
statements.
Youth
agreed
least.
We
can
only
speculate
about
these
differences:
perhaps
youth
know
less
about
Mahindra
products
because
most
Mahindra
products
are
geared
towards
an
older
crowd
with
more
purchasing
power
(auto,
tractors,
real
estate,
etc.).
However,
youth
may
also
be
more
skeptical
of
companies’
intentions
behind
corporate
giving.
Perhaps
the
Mahindra
Group
should
consider
this
implication
when
deciding
which
arts
initiatives
to
support
(i.e.,
focusing
on
arts
initiatives
for
an
older
audience),
or
which
products
to
promote
at
these
events.
The
Skoda
Prize,
a
large
monetary
award
for
young
artists
sponsored
by
the
Skoda
auto
company,
is
a
cautionary
tale;
many
artists
publicly
resisted
and
were
opposed
to
a
company
promoting
its
name
by
supporting
an
art
prize.
12
Skoda
decided
to
discontinue
its
sponsorship
in
2013.
3) Men
agreed
slightly
more
than
women
that
support
for
the
arts
would
influence
their
purchasing
decisions.
Although
the
difference
was
slight,
we
should
conduct
further
studies
to
determine
which
demographics
the
Mahindra
Blues
Festival,
or
Mahindra’s
other
arts
initiatives,
should
target.
Some
people
may
claim
sample
bias
in
our
survey,
and
therefore
question
our
results,
because
all
of
our
audience
participated
in
or
was
interested
in
the
festival
in
some
way.
The
audience’s
participation
would
suggest
that
it
could
not
possibly
be
opposed
to
corporate
support
for
the
arts.
However,
the
most
important
question
for
us
was
whether
arts
initiatives
influence
participants’
perceptions
of
the
12
Kramer,
Elizabeth,
“Name
dropping”.
8. 8
companies
that
support
those
initiatives.
We
cannot
clearly
determine
that
simply
by
looking
at
whether
people
attended
the
festival
or
not,
and
therefore,
we
needed
to
conduct
the
survey.
Additionally,
we
decided
not
to
ask
the
audience
in
Q1
and
Q2
if
they
believed
Mahindra,
specifically,
should
support
the
arts,
or
if
Mahindra’s
support
for
the
arts
influenced
their
perceptions
of
the
company
(instead,
we
asked
about
companies
in
general).
Although
asking
a
more
general
question
limited
our
conclusions
(we
cannot
decisively
say
whether
the
audience
develops
positive
perceptions
about
Mahindra
based
on
the
Mahindra
Blues
Festival),
this
was
a
deliberate
decision;
we
do
not
wish
to
make
our
audience
skeptical
about
the
blues
festival’s
intentions
by
asking
such
specific
questions.
Also,
asking
the
questions
in
such
a
way
would
not
have
been
in
the
style
of
our
other
communications
with
the
blues
festival
audience.
Therefore,
we
must
be
satisfied
with
hypothesizing
that
because
our
audience
develops
positive
perceptions
about
companies
in
general
that
support
the
arts,
they
most
likely
now
think
positively
about
Mahindra’s
reputation.
Although
many
questions
remain,
we
established
quite
firmly
with
this
survey
that
for
the
Mahindra
Blues
Festival
audience,
corporate
support
for
the
arts
creates
a
positive
reputation
for
a
company.
By
extension,
this
may
mean
that
Mahindra’s
reputation
benefits
from
its
arts
initiatives,
and
that
probably
its
sales,
share
price,
customer
loyalty,
and
other
business
measures
may
benefit
as
well.
We
also
established
that,
overall,
the
audience
believes
that
Mahindra’s
support
for
the
arts
would
influence
their
purchasing
decisions.
In
further
studies,
we
should
determine,
by
tracking
their
purchases,
whether
this
influence
is
positive
or
negative.
However,
this
survey
suggests
that
the
Mahindra
Group
is
not
only
creating
social
good
with
its
support
for
the
arts,
but
is
enhancing
and
protecting
its
reputation.

The
Humana
Festival
of
New
American
Plays,
USA
13
The
Humana
Festival
of
New
American
Plays
is
a
5-‐week
theater
festival
in
Louisville,
Kentucky
that
produces
and
showcases
about
6
plays
every
year.
The
festival
is
sponsored
by
The
Humana
Foundation,
the
philanthropic
arm
of
Humana,
a
Louisville-‐based
health-‐insurance
company.
The
festival
intends
to
create
opportunities
for
rising
American
playwrights,
and
nourish
contemporary
American
theater.
Though
the
festival
does
not
award
prizes,
many
of
the
plays
shown
at
the
Humana
Festival
have
won
other
prestigious
awards:
3
Humana
Festival
plays
have
won
the
Pulitzer
Prize,
8
have
won
the
Steinberg/ATCA
Award
for
New
Plays,
which
comes
with
a
$25,000
award,
and
8
plays
have
been
adapted
into
film
or
TV
shows.
Such
outcomes
fulfill
the
festival’s
objective
of
opening
doors
for
new
American
plays.
The
festival
has
been
a
tremendous
success.
In
2013,
over
33,000
patrons
from
over
44
American
states
and
8
countries
attended
the
festival.
Since
1980,
Humana
has
given
over
$20.5
million
to
the
festival
in
what
is
the
longest
continuous
partnership
between
a
company
and
a
theater,
the
Actors
Theater
of
Louisville,
which
organizes
the
festival.
Though
Humana
has
not
released
studies
or
figures
that
measure
the
business
or
social
impact
of
this
festival,
international
and
national
media
outlets
cover
the
event
every
year.
This
press
likely
boosts
positive
perceptions
of
Humana
as
a
socially
responsible
company,
which
is
an
especially
important
value
addition
given
the
many
negative
associations
with
American
health
insurance
companies.
For
all
these
reasons,
it
is
no
surprise
that
Human
continues
to
sponsor
the
festival.
JSW
Foundation,
India
14
The
JSW
Foundation,
the
philanthropic
arm
of
the
JSW
steel
and
oil
conglomerate,
sponsors
many
arts
initiatives.
Perhaps
the
foundation’s
largest
project
is
Kaladham,
a
10-‐acre
“arts
village”
in
Karnataka
meant
to
become
a
center
for
the
arts
in
India.
The
village
has
an
outdoor
theater
pavilion
for
plays,
dance
performance
spaces
and
studios,
art
galleries,
and
a
museum,
all
places
where
overseas
and
local
artists
can
work
and
exhibit
their
pieces.
JSW
Foundation
especially
intended
for
the
space
to
help
support
local
artists
in
order
to
keep
local
heritage
alive.
In
addition
to
Kaladham,
JSW
Foundation
also
sponsors
Art
India
magazine,
one
of
India’s
most
prominent
arts
magazines,
and
has
supported
the
restoration
of
the
Krishna
Temple
in
Hampi,
and
funds
Rajasthani
folk
music
workshops
for
schoolchildren
in
Rajasthan.
Finally,
JSW
Foundation
also
published
an
English-‐language
translation
of
Chilean
Nobel
laureate,
Gabriella
Mistral’s
collection
of
poems.
The
JSW
Foundation
also
has
not
released
studies
on
the
impact
of
their
work,
but
may,
like
Humana,
appreciate
the
positive
press
around
the
initiatives
given
the
negative
associations
with
the
oil
and
steel
industries.
