Then utilising this incredible marketing tool will give you more potential to drive home your message in an engaging, interactive and memorable way for both your current and future customers.
Whether you're starting from scratch, or looking for a facelift to take
your business to the next level, we can help create the perfect mascot for you.
FAMILIARITY
Ahh, pester power. Great for your bottom line.
Children don't understand marketing spiel, but what they do associate with a friendly cartoon face is the awesome-super-fun time that’s likely in store for them.
Of course, mascots are ideal for family-based audiences but they can also be great for injecting some wit, reassurance and positive feeling into more intimidating or complex industries too (like education, insurance or utilities).
PERSONALITY
Unbreakable bonds built ontimeless relationships
Think about it. Your favourite brands likely became just that by the way they tapped into your emotions and made you feel understood.
Deep down we all want to connect with authentic, down-to-earth people with relatable stories – not boring products or services out to make a quick buck on our behalf.
A solid mascot (or group of mascots!) that have been designed to personify, strengthen and be one-and-the-same with your brand values can help you to soar over your competition by resonating with your customer's emotions and their desire to feel entertained.
VALUE
Universal appeal;ENDLESS ways to communicate.
Deciding how to spend marketing / advertising budgets can be a daunting task, especially with so many options available to try, but having your own mascot can humanise your messages and provide a recognisable figurehead to strengthen your future marketing efforts across the board.
ENGAGEMENT
Capture the attention of yourwidest audience.
In a consumer culture of attention spans that are shorter than Danny Divito, the window of opportunity to sell your story is brief, often reduced to a fleeting glance!
Humans, by nature, are creatures conditioned from ancient history to better remember images over words, so a 'visual ambassador' for your brand can be a pretty safe bet in achieving increased impressions and interactions online and off.

"Emma really listened to what we wanted for our Mascot and it showed as when she presented us with the draft copy; it was just perfect and nothing had to be changed. Emma's design is now the face of our charity which will be with us for many years to come. Thank you"
- Sam Allen, Founder, MaddisButterflies.org.uk

I found Emma to be very professional and efficient. She quickly understood the project brief and undertook extensive market research to present a set of ideas which we then worked on together to develop further. She then delivered the final work on time and on budget. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Emma to others.
