Greetings! Has anyone here ever used a mascot as part of their brand identity? I’m working with a fun, youth-focused startup and thinking a mascot could give us that extra personality boost—but I’m also a little worried it might feel gimmicky or too niche. Would love to hear how it’s worked (or not worked) for others.

Yeah, mascot branding can be super effective if it’s done with intention. It really depends on the tone of your brand and how consistently you use the character. I found this awesome breakdown on mascot branding from Clay—super insightful. They cover how mascots build emotional connection, give your brand a face, and how to avoid common pitfalls (like being overly cutesy or off-brand). Great real-world examples too. Definitely worth a read before you commit to the idea.
