Character Design Brief
SherpaLa is a flash-sales site that offers weekly deals on yoga and wellness retreats around the world. Health and Wellness enthusiasts get discounted opportunities to study with some of the best teachers at some of the most beautiful places in the world.
Our company admires the aesthetic and personality of Appsumo.com. Basically, they have adopted a persona of a funny, friendly and helpful sumo wrestler that sells you business products and tools for entrepreneurs. We would like to have our brand image be based on the character of a Sherpa, a wise, quasi-asian/indian, hip Mr. Miagi/travel guide type guy that hooks up our customers with insider info and sweet deals.
