Why use a mascot or character?

A well-designed mascot or character can easily become a business’s best sales and marketing tool. A fun, approachable mascot design is more likely to grab consumers’ attention, which is what every small business needs. Mascots effectively personify a brand, which helps your target audience to identify, remember, and understand your company and the services you offer. Using character design, we can help you to showcase your brands story across a campaign, explain your business processes in an easy-to-follow way, and engage customers. We offer our services in Wellington, Christchurch, Tauranga, Hamilton, and across New Zealand!

A brand character or mascot provides a vehicle to express a person’s self, guide brand–building, represent relationships, communicate attributes, understand the customer and contribute energy.

Our mascot and character design process

  • The character and mascot design process starts with discovery. We ask questions to define who your brand is, your business goals, and your target audience is key. Our team will research every detail before we begin because we want to capture the essence of your ideas and core message in our character and mascot designs.

  • Our Illustrators are now ready to unleash the power of their creativity. From pencil sketches to digital finished art, we get to work on creating a character or mascot that perfectly fits your brand and culture. Style, colour scheme and the look and feel are given careful consideration until you have a beautiful, polished character that represents your company.

  • Once we’re happy with the artwork we’ll present it to you for feedback. We work closely with your team on any necessary revisions to ensure you’re completely satisfied with the final artwork, and the character or mascot is perfectly aligned to your brand.

  • Once you’ve given us the green light, we’ll deliver all the final high resolution digital assets that you’ll need for your project. Now your vision has been brought to life, you’ll be ready to captivate your customers with fun characters and mascots.

Choosing the right mascot

Introducing a brand mascot can be a great opportunity to drive action to your brand, but it needs to be the right fit. Even if you have the best mascot design, it would not be of any value if people cannot somehow connect it with a brand. You should establish a connection between your brand and mascot by aligning it with your products and services. You might already have your brand’s assets, like logos, default fonts, and colour schemes. Before you finalise your design for the mascot, make sure that it goes well with all of these brand assets.
