Nike started in 1962 at the University of Oregon by Phil Knight and his coach Bill Bowerman. They originally sold Japanese running shoes under the name Blue Ribbon Sports. By the 1990s, Nike had become the dominant brand in running shoes, basketball shoes, soccer shoes, and casual shoes. Today, Nike is the 90th largest company in the Forbes 500 and the world's most valuable sports brand due to its marketing strategy of associating with star athletes to drive fan connections and purchases of its products.
Nike was founded in 1964 as Blue Ribbon Sports by Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight. It began as a distributor for Onitsuka Tiger shoes in the US before designing its own athletic shoes under the Nike brand name in 1972. Notable milestones included signing Michael Jordan in 1984 and Tiger Woods in 1996, and expanding into new sports and markets globally. Headquartered in Oregon, Nike has grown to over $24 billion in annual revenue and employs 44,000 people worldwide as a leader in the athletic footwear and apparel industries.
Nike is a leading maker of athletic shoes and apparel. It was founded in 1964 as Blue Ribbon Sports to import Japanese running shoes. The company was renamed Nike in 1971 and began manufacturing its own shoes overseas. Through innovative shoe designs and aggressive marketing campaigns featuring top athletes, Nike grew rapidly in the 1970s and 1980s to become the largest seller of athletic shoes in the United States. It now has global operations and owns other brands like Converse and Hurley.
Nike was founded in 1964 as Blue Ribbon Sports by Phil Knight and Bill Bowerman to manufacture and sell athletic shoes. Bill Bowerman, a track coach, sought to improve his students' performance by enhancing their shoes. Phil Knight graduated with an MBA and suggested manufacturing shoes in Japan, and the two partners founded Blue Ribbon Sports. After struggling to develop successful shoes, they created a waffle-sole shoe in 1971 that helped establish the company. Nike launched its iconic "Swoosh" logo and "Just Do It" tagline in the 1980s, signing star athletes like Michael Jordan that boosted sales and global recognition.
This document summarizes the history and key events of Nike from its founding in the 1960s to present day.

Marketing Excellence Nike
Nike hit the ground running in 1962. Originally known as Blue Ribbon Sports, the company focused on providing high-quality running shoes designed for athletes by athletes. Founder Philip Knight believed high-tech shoes for runners could be manufactured at competitive prices if imported from abroad. Nike’s commitment to designing innovative footwear for serious athletes helped build a cult following among U.S. consumers.
Nike believed in a “pyramid of influence” where the preferences of a small percentage of top athletes influenced the product and brand choices of others. Nike’s marketing campaigns have always featured accomplished athletes. For example, runner Steve Prefontaine, the company’s first spokesperson, had an irreverent attitude that matched Nike’s spirit.
In 1985, Nike signed up then-rookie guard Michael Jordan as a spokesperson. Jordan was still an up-and-comer, but he personified superior performance. Nike’s bet paid off—the Air Jordan line of basketball shoes flew off the shelves and revenues hit more than $100 million in the first year alone. As one reporter stated, “Few marketers have so reliably been able to identify and sign athletes who transcend their sports to such great effect.”
In 1988, Nike aired the first ads in its $20 million “Just Do It” ad campaign. The campaign, which ultimately featured 12 TV spots in all, subtly challenged a generation of athletic enthusiasts to chase their goals. It was a natural manifestation of Nike’s attitude of self-empowerment through sports.
As Nike began expanding overseas, the company learned that its U.S.-style ads were seen as too aggressive in Europe, Asia, and South America. Nike realized it had to “authenticate” its brand in other countries, so it focused on soccer (called football outside the United States) and became active as a sponsor of youth leagues, local clubs, and national teams. However, for Nike to build authenticity among the soccer audience, consumers had to see professional athletes using its product, especially athletes who won.
Nike’s big break came in 1994 when the Brazilian team (the only national team for which Nike had any real sponsorship) won the World Cup. That victory transformed Nike’s international image from a sneaker company into a brand that represented emotion, allegiance, and identification. Nike’s new alliance with soccer helped propel the brand’s growth internationally. In 2003, overseas revenues surpassed U.S. revenues for the first time, and in 2007, Nike acquired Umbro, a British maker of soccer-related footwear, apparel, and equipment. The acquisition made Nike the sole supplier to more than 100 professional soccer teams around the world and boosted Nike’s international presence and authenticity in soccer. The company sold Umbro in 2012 for $225 million.
In recent years, Nike’s international efforts have been focused on emerging markets. During the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, Nike honed in on China and deve.
Nike is the world's largest athletic footwear and apparel company. It was founded in 1964 and has evolved from distributing Onitsuka Tiger shoes to becoming a global leader in designing and marketing athletic footwear, apparel, and equipment. Nike focuses on innovation through product research in areas like biomechanics and uses high-profile athlete endorsements and aggressive marketing to promote its brand. While Nike dominates the industry, it faces challenges from increasing competition and changing consumer preferences.
Nike and Adidas have announced they are exiting the golf equipment business due to declining sales, leaving professionals like Tiger Woods needing new clubs. Golf participation in the US has decreased by 6 million since 2005. However, golf is expanding globally with growing interest in countries like Australia and among new demographics like women and children. The return of golf to the Olympics boosted the sport's exposure worldwide and international growth offers opportunities for golf's future success.

Advanced Storytelling Concepts for MarketersEd Shimp
Every marketer knows you’re supposed to tell a story, but do you know how to tell a story? Do you know why you’re supposed to tell a story? Do you even truly know what a story is? While many marketing presentations emphasize the value of mythic storytelling, the nuts and bolts of actually constructing a story are never explored.
The goal of marketing may be to achieve specific KPIs that drive sales, which is very objective, but the top of the marketing funnel requires a softer approach. In our data-driven results-oriented fast-paced world, marketers must quantify results, but those results will never be achieved unless prospects are first approached with humanity.
There is a common misunderstanding that the so-called “soft skills” of marketing such as language and art are unmeasurable and subjective, but while the objective measures of market research are merely 100 years old, the rules of aesthetics have been perfected over the last 2,500 years.
Great story construction is a skill that requires significant knowledge and practice. This presentation will be a review of the ancient art of story construction.
We will discuss:
• Rhetoric – The art of effective communication
• The Socratic Method – You cannot teach, but you can persuade people to learn
• Plato’s Cave – You sell products, but you market ideas
• Aristotle’s Six Dramatic Elements – The secret recipe for marketing stories
This is for senior marketers who are tasked with creating effective narratives or guiding others in the process. By the end of the session, attendees will have gained the knowledge needed to work storytelling into all phases of the buyer’s journey.
