Additional Information
TOONS4BIZ is a full service ad agency that specializes in developing cartoon characters for use as brand mascots similar to the Jolly Green Giant and Pillsbury Doughboy. These characters are used as brand spokespersons to help companies differentiate themselves and build more memorable and robust brands.
The company currently offers 90 different stock cartoon brand mascots. Each one comes in it's own clipart set of anywhere between 30 to 85 versions of that character. Some characters are also available in stock animations. Custom created characters are also available.
The cartoon characters are primarily inanimate objects brought to life with a warm smile, big friendly eyes and arms and legs. Examples include a computer, dollar bill, pizza slice, water drop, baseball, eye ball and chef hat.
On their Web site, you'll find useful articles on the proper use of cartoon brand mascots. What industries, products and services are right for one, and which ones are not.
The company behind TOONS4BIZ is Thompson Advertising, Inc. The founder, David A. Thompson, cut his creative teeth on cartoon characters by working on the M&M characters for Mars candy. Seeing how powerful and versatile the characters were, Thompson started developing characters for other clients. But the cost for developing a good cartoon character was prohibitive for many smaller clients, so Thompson started developing the TOONS4BIZ line of stock characters in clipart sets. By reselling them royalty free, he could put them within financial reach of even the smallest business.
Today, most of TOONS4BIZ's customers are small businesses looking for a way to stand out in competitive fields, although some larger corporations are now coming to TOONS4BIZ for more high-end custom characters with comprehensive campaigns developed around them.
