An elderly Chinese woman carried two pots on a pole across her neck daily to fetch water - one pot was cracked while the other was perfect. For two years, the cracked pot could only deliver half as much water as the perfect pot due to its crack. However, the woman had planted flower seeds along the path on the cracked pot's side, which it watered daily on the return journey, allowing her to pick beautiful flowers to decorate her home. She told the cracked pot that without its flaw, there would be no beauty from the flowers. Each person has their own unique flaws or cracks, but it is these flaws that make life together interesting and rewarding.
This document provides an analysis of city-owned trees in Keene, New Hampshire. It begins with an introduction that provides background on Keene and discusses how it has historically been known as the "Elm City" due to the large number of elm trees that once lined its streets. It then presents a literature review on the benefits of urban trees. The document goes on to describe the methodology used to identify, locate, and assess city-owned trees through field work and a public survey. Key findings are that the public has a general lack of awareness of Keene's Tree City USA program but values the trees, and field assessments found trees to be in varying conditions with American elms making up a large portion. The analysis concludes

FC Barcelona and Real Madrid have become two of the most lucrative sports franchises in the world due to reconstructing their business models to focus on new media and globalization. They have capitalized on the growth of internet users and social media platforms to expand their fan bases worldwide.

Both clubs have globalized themselves while maintaining local roots to achieve unprecedented commercial success.

The document discusses football (soccer) as a brand and business. It notes that the top football clubs generate hundreds of millions in annual revenue, with labor costs accounting for 70% of expenses. Popularity of football is increasing globally as evidenced by rising viewership of major tournaments. Maintaining customer relationships and fan loyalty is important for clubs given the lasting loyalty of fans from generation to generation. Emerging technologies like social media and mobile marketing provide new opportunities to directly engage with fans.
1. Manchester United remains the world's most valuable football brand, worth $1.17 billion, despite a weak season on the pitch.
2. Leicester City had the fastest growing brand value after their unexpected Premier League title, up 132% to $237 million and 16th overall.
3. Real Madrid's brand value grew 32% to $1.148 billion after another Champions League title, closing the gap on Manchester United for the top spot.
Manchester United has struggled since Sir Alex Ferguson left, failing to evolve with other Premier League clubs. They spend the most on salaries but have earned fewer trophies than rivals. In particular, United overpays older players who make few appearances. To return to success, United must hire analytical and technical staff with modern views to identify talent and make strategic moves, rather than imitating Ferguson or overpaying players. While Ferguson's legacy cannot be repeated, the club must adapt to the new, data-driven era of football to compete again.
Manchester United's goal is to be the best football club in the world. Their vision is outlined in their club charter. The club faces threats from new entrants in the Premier League and substitute services. They must manage powerful buyers and suppliers. Intense competition also reduces industry profitability. The club's strongest resource is its playing squad but it has significant debt that must be reduced to comply with financial regulations. Key strategies include maintaining managerial stability, capitalizing on player values to fund new acquisitions, and reducing debt. The club is well-positioned to gain new fans globally as supporting Manchester United becomes a family tradition. Analytics can help outweigh financial advantages of other clubs but passion also plays a key role in the

Brands in FIFA... Who are you cheering for?Arbunize
This document provides a summary of the top 10 football brands based on their weekly wages and brand value. It profiles each player, including their age, club, country, major sponsors, and weekly wage. The top player is Lionel Messi, who earns £292,000 per week from sponsors like Adidas, Turkish Airlines, and PepsiCo. He is often considered the best player in the world and holds several goal scoring records. In second is Wayne Rooney, who earns £300,000 per week primarily from EA gaming and sponsors his image. Third is Christiano Ronaldo, who earns £288,000 per week from various sponsors due to his large social media following promoting their brands.
This document is an April 2017 edition of a football magazine called MyFootballFacts. It includes articles on Premier League managers like Pochettino and Shakespeare, a flashback on footballer Rio Ferdinand's career, a discussion of online casinos sponsoring football clubs, and questions from a "Question of the Day" section with answers. The editor encourages readers to share the magazine and follow the publication on social media.
This document discusses Manchester United as both a successful football club and global brand. It outlines how Manchester United has built a brand value of £789 million through on-field success, legendary players, and a loyal worldwide fan base of 659 million supporters. A key part of Manchester United's brand strategy has been lucrative sponsorship deals, including a record £750 million deal with Adidas. This sponsorship demonstrates how the football club and brand are effectively managed and marketed to generate substantial revenues and further strengthen Manchester United's position as the world's most valuable football brand.
Manchester United has struggled since Sir Alex Ferguson retired. They have had a series of poor results, plummeting share prices, and increasing debt. To return to success, the new manager must implement a revival strategy with changes across the squad in defense, midfield, and attack to modernize tactics. Specific player transfers are proposed to fill positions, while selling older players could reduce debt. An advertising campaign is also suggested to rally fan support and confidence as United works to regain its place among the top teams in the Premier League.
With the aim of asserting its position as the home of the Barclays premier league, Sky Sports and MediaCom set out to make sure consumers weren’t swayed by BT Sport’s offer.
Football clubs and businesses have various ways of generating revenue from the sport:
1) Selling advertising space on boards at the pitchside and in stadiums during matches.
2) Earning television rights fees by allowing broadcast companies to air matches.
3) Generating sponsorships from kit suppliers and other companies advertising on uniforms, programs, and training sessions.
4) Making money from ticket and merchandise sales at stadiums.

Claudio Ranieri was appointed manager of Leicester City last summer after Nigel Pearson's departure, despite being an unpopular choice. Through his eccentric personality and emphasis on discipline, teamwork, and celebrating small victories, he instilled a winning mentality in the team. This led Leicester City, 5000/1 underdogs at the start of the season, to an improbable Premier League title, the first team promoted the prior season to ever win it. Ranieri's unique motivational tactics like ringing a bell in training and rewarding clean sheets with pizza helped energize the team on their historic run.
Manchester City are currently top of the Barclays Premier League with 10 wins, 1 draw and no losses, earning them 31 points. Manchester United are in second place with 8 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. Newcastle are in third place with 7 wins, 4 draws and no losses. Chelsea are in fourth place despite their shocking form of 7 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. Tottenham are in fifth place with 7 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses.
Manchester United has struggled since Sir Alex Ferguson left, failing to evolve with other Premier League clubs. They spend heavily on player salaries without good results, overpaying aging players like Cavani and underperforming ones. In contrast, Liverpool and Man City have invested in analytical staff to identify and develop talent cost-effectively. The article argues United must hire analytical and technical staff with modern football knowledge rather than trying to replicate Ferguson, and questions if their current Technical Director is qualified for the role.
Similar to Transferring Cristiano Ronaldo Presentation (20)
2. What is a Transfer? A club owns the right to have a contract with a certain player Other clubs may “buy” that right from them When agreement is made, the selling club transfers the right to the buying club The buying club still needs to sign the player to a separate contract of their own
3. World Record Transfers First transfer was Alf Common in 1905 for £1,000 Broke £1 million in 1979 Current record is £80 million for Cristiano Ronaldo’s move from Manchester United to Real Madrid
5. Who is Cristiano Ronaldo There are some things Ronaldo can do with a football that make me touch my head and wonder how on earth he did it.” – Luis Figo (Ex- Real Madrid Star and former world player of the year)
6. Who is Cristiano Ronaldo Started playing for a club in his hometown in Madeira at the age of 8 Quickly signed by Sporting Lisbon and on his 1st team debut at age 17 he scored 2 goals Signed by Manchester United just days after playing in a friendly match Set a record by scoring 42 goals in 48 appearances for Manchester United in 2007
7. Real Madrid Most popular club in the world History of spending extreme amounts on transfers Galacticos Era 2000-2005 Bought three former world players of the year Mostly seen as a failure New Galacticos – Ronaldo, Kaka, Benzema (Spent £220m in 2009)
8. Theoretical Model for Transfers Objective of a club : maxU = U(Q,π) Team Performance can be seen as: Q=Q(q,Ѳ) Profit: π = R-C Revenue: R = ρG(ρ,Q) + F(Q) + N Cost: C = W(q) + O Seller: Ts = Wqs – ωs Buyer: Tb = Wqb – ωb
9. Superstar Effect Additional revenue generated from increased prices, and the increase in fans MC is minimal since television can reach millions without any additional costs Real Madrid is able to maximize its return on investment from a purchase like Cristiano Ronaldo because it already has the infrastructure to exploit all revenue streams and maximize their profit Two measures are highly correlated to high wages, goals per game and assists, generate high levels of fan interest Lucifora and Simmons identified 0.40 goals per game to be exceptional and a good indicator of a superstar. Cristiano Ronaldo, since 2006, has a goal rate of .615
10. Game Theory Real Madrid has a dominant strategy, to buy This is driven by the performance, marketing, revenue, and increase in fan opinion. No matter what Manchester United chooses, Real Madrid will choose to buy because it gives them higher payouts in each case Manchester United is faced with a dilemma Low payout if they chose to sell and Real Madrid chose not to buy. This would destabilize the team and lower the morale of Cristiano to the point that his performance may suffer and fan opinion will decrease Payoff is higher not to sell if Real Madrid chooses not to buy due to the performance boost of having Cristiano in the team, revenue stays up, fans opinion remains the same Given that Real Madrid’s dominant strategy is to buy, their payoff is higher selling Leads to a Nash Equilibrium of Manchester United selling and Real Madrid buying
