CELEBRITY BRANDS: MONO-BRANDING AND CELEBRITY ENTERPRENEURSHIP

Journal Title: Marketing Identity - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

Celebrity endorsement can be used in various branding and marketing communication strategies. Besides standard engaging of celebrities as brand representatives of ambassadors, there are also possibilities leading to more direct connection between the celebrity and promoted subject. More concretely, we mean the creation and marketing of brands with the same name as celebrities´, which is called mono-branding. The literature started to research this phenomenon only recently, although it´s use is quite frequent and some celebrity mono-brands are extremely popular. In this study, we point to the placement of mono-branding to the context of general celebrity endorsement concept, explain circumstances of it´s application and most of all, open wider perspective for this form of celebrity presence in contemporary culture.
