It is little wonder why ever since 1966, each FIFA World Cup tournament has had its unique mascot. Below are the reasons why you should incorporate a mascot into your marketing strategy.

Mascots Can Give You a Competitive Edge on Social Media

Mascots have a unique way of engaging and entertaining your followers to help build a personality in a way not possible through a corporate social media site. It is more likely that your audience will engage more with your mascot than they would with a real person employed by that company.

Mascots Entertain and Engage

Besides engaging the social media audience, mascots provide a forum for real-time entertainment. Mascots draw masses closer wherever they go and become a spectacle that makes people wait to see greater anticipation. Mascots are larger-than-life characters who have a way of engaging crowds, which is second to none.

Additional Revenue Streams

Mascots help generate extra revenue for your team from selling related merchandise. A mascot also helps increase sales for your sports team by having it sent out on community events. Your team can also enhance revenues from licensing Rights and merchandise creation from a well-known mascot.

Mascots Add Personality

There is more to creating a brand personality than reaching out to your target audience with the right message. Most sports teams struggle with creating a personality around them. A mascot helps give your team character, personality, and a face. It becomes easy to establish a physical and emotional connection with your audience, to help differentiate you from the rest of the pack.

Adding a mascot into your marketing mix helps develop a personality aligned with your mascot and makes your brand look friendly.
