Why would a firm choose a lesser known celebrity in its advertising when more famous celebrities are available?

What will be an ideal response?


Firms will choose a lesser known celebrity because the more famous celebrities are also more expensive. The firm will choose the celebrity based on the additional profits the celebrity endorsement can generate compared to the cost of the celebrity endorser. If the cost of a famous endorser exceeds the additional profits that the endorsement will generate, then firms may choose a lesser known endorser.
