Timeline and Investment

Strategic Brand Assets Built to Scale

  • A mascot brand identity is more than a character.
    It’s a long-term brand asset designed to increase recognition, emotional connection, and market differentiation.

  • Every project is built with intention, structure, and scalability in mind.

Mascot Brand Identity System

  • Investment begins at $6,500

  • Most clients invest between $7,500 – $10,000 depending on scope and expansion needs.

  • This comprehensive system includes:

  • Custom Mascot Design (finalized, production-ready)

  • Primary Logo Design

  • Icon Mark

  • Illustrated Logo Lockup

  • Slogan Development

  • Brand Story Narrative

  • Core Color Palette & Typography Direction

  • Usage & Application Guidelines

  • Final Deliverables in Print + Digital Formats

  • This is a complete identity foundation — designed for real-world implementation across packaging, merchandise, digital platforms, and marketing campaigns.

What Influences Final Investment

  • Every brand is different. Final pricing depends on:

  • Complexity of the mascot concept

  • Level of character development

  • Number of identity variations

  • Depth of messaging strategy

  • Extended asset creation (poses, seasonal versions, campaign variations)

  • Additional creative expansion is scoped separately to maintain clarity and value.

Brand Expansion Add-Ons

  • Your mascot should grow with your business.

  • Additional assets are available as structured add-ons:

  • Extra Mascot Poses

  • Expression Sheets

  • Seasonal Wardrobe Variations

  • Campaign or Event Variants

  • Merchandise-Specific Artwork

  • Social Media Asset Packs

  • Expansion work is quoted per project to ensure it aligns with your marketing goals.

Who This Is For

  • This investment is ideal for:

  • Emerging brands ready to stand out in competitive markets

  • Established companies seeking a distinctive identity refresh

  • Businesses building long-term brand equity

  • Founders who understand the value of strategic visual storytelling

  • If you’re looking for a quick logo or budget character illustration, this may not be the right fit.

  • If you’re building a brand designed to scale — we should talk.

The Value of Character-Driven Branding

Mascot-based identities:

  • Increase brand recall

  • Humanize your company
