Pitch Two for Albineaux in the Campaign for the Next UL Mascot

[Turbine]

……..So my son-in-law ever in the athletics sports world tells me the cost of coming up with a mascot/icon type runs at about 300k……can this run this high for Albineaux?

Yes, if you hire an outside firm, which is what they did for Cayenne and why they kept throwing good money after bad.

Organic development is the prefered route, no need to be afraid of your shadow.

Presenting a new initiative to a fanbase will cost money no matter how organic it is. But if you were to pay a marketing firm to create a character, the university would have to cover the cost of the research and development, the design phase, and buy all trademarks associated, this is all before the cost of print and rollout.

What I’ve done is pretty much most of the research and development portion. The university can still design the character how they want. And since Albineaux is my original IP, all they would need to do is talk to me to create the trademark. Which is what I’m trying to get them to do while I’m not seeking a dime from them.

Out athletic budget operated at 5 million dollar deficit last year. I’m barking up the wrong tree if I was doing this for money haha.

Fixed it for you. I agree.

It’s been so heartwarming to see how well received phase 2 of Albineaux has been.

I see young people who never post about UL picking up the Albineaux banner with Ragin Cajun pride. Seeing them lose their apathy is just so awesome to see.

I hope 2024 is an amazing year for the Ragin Cajun faithful.

Well, look no further than the billboard at Johnston and CD Boulevard to see the effort coming from MH. Only one I’ve seen. Can’t even remember exactly what it says.

The only thing I've heard from someone related to the administration is the best way to make Albineaux a reality is to get in contact with someone within the athletic foundation. And then try and get them all on board.
