REAL SUCCESS IS IN THE POWER OF ‘RECALL’ • Brand mascots could become a strong element for point of difference and to create a better brand recall. • A classic example for this is the Amul Girl who has become synonymous with Amul Butter. Every onlooker can unmistakably identify the cute girl wearing a polka dotted frock, acting as the Vox Populi on contemporary issues. • A brand mascot does the job of personifying the brand very effectively. A product like flour would have stayed a commodity with hardly any distinctive positioning element to create an edge over the competition. • The Pillsbury Doughboy changed this myth. It was named as Poppin Fresh. This exemplified the whole idea of the freshness of dough to perfection and created an instant recall for the brand.
