The ability to physically connect with an audience is a much longer lasting brand impression than just viewing a TV commercial.

Mascot costumes get attention<\/h2><p>Mascots naturally draw your attention. They&#8217;re usually tall, full of bright colors, and look&#8230; well&#8230; pretty funky. It&#8217;s this sort of oddity that activates our curiosity. This allows mascots to stand out amongst the crowd and hold people&#8217;s attention. Imagine attaching your brand&#8217;s logo to such an attraction. Even if it just appears on a hat your mascot is wearing, people are going to look at the mascot and associate it to your brand. Consider this possibility when designing your custom mascot.

Custom mascots are cost effective<\/h2><p>You can of course buy a mass-produced mascot costume from a big box store or over an internet marketplace. In fact, in the short-run, it&#8217;ll probably save you some money! But if you plan to use this mascot costume repeatedly, eventually you&#8217;re going to see some problems.\u00a0<\/p><p>Not only are these mass-produced costumes limited in customizability, they are usually lower quality in terms of stitching and materials. As a result, they fall apart much quicker, and may not be the easiest to clean and maintain. If you ever have to look for aftermarket support for these issues, you&#8217;re going to have a rough time.<\/p><p>Think of a custom mascot as an investment, it does take starting capital to buy in, but in the long-run it ends up paying off.
