Why licenses are important for the toy industry
- With an expected growth of 14% until 2020, licensed toys are developing much more dynamically than traditional non-licensed toys.
- Licensing is one of the most successful marketing measures, as it can significantly increase the awareness of a product.
- Licensed products are a natural part of the assortment that the customer expects in the shops.

Licensed properties mean nothing if they don’t have followers. Social media offers retailers and marketers a way to find and engage with communities of fans that can make or break a product line or a licensing program. Learn about ways that successful marketers identify and appeal to their audiences.
A pair of licensing industry veterans discuss the business, social, entertainment and other forces that are shaping the licensing business – and why they matter.
