Celebrity endorsement is a marketing strategy where famous people promote products and services to transfer their positive image to the brand. Marketers hope consumers will associate the celebrity's image with the brand. Celebrities that can endorse include actors, models, athletes, entertainers, musicians, and politicians. The goals of celebrity endorsement are to provide instant credibility for the brand, increase demand and sales of the product, and boost or repair the brand image. Potential advantages include higher brand awareness, improved recall of the brand, and standing out from competitors. However, there are also risks like damaging the brand if the celebrity loses reputation or does not align well with the brand.
