Many times we have been in a situation where we find ourselves spending a lot of time browsing the same shelves in the supermarket. This is because of the variety of brands that are selling the same product. All of these products, while the end result may be the same, differ in some criteria. At the end of the search, you will find in most cases you have selected what appears to be appealing to your eyes. What am I talking about? I am speaking about appearance. In sales and marketing, appearance means a lot. You might have the best product this holiday season, but if there is nothing appealing about your packaging, customers might skip right over it. Increase your sales by following these tips for making your retail packaging stand out this holiday season.
Package Your Holiday Gift Boxes Creatively
Think ahead of your competitors by gift-wrapping products for your customers. Ready-made unique items will be appealing to shoppers during the holiday because many of them will be in a rush. The attractive packaging helps grab attention, especially for those last minute shoppers.
Work on Your Design
You need to ensure that your design is relevant, professional, and straightforward. Your design should not be overdone. A simple design with legible fonts and product attributes that are well brought out will work out for you better than an overdone layout. Notably, consumers need to be motivated to purchase your product. Give your product a professional touch by ensuring the design is neat and clean.
Use Targeted Marketing
Knowing your targeted market is paramount. For example, you can utilize cartoon characters, child-friendly themes, and bright colors when your target market is children.
Focus on Theme Color
Studies prove that different colors have different influences on human reactions. Your color choice makes a big difference on how your clients observe your products.
Enhance the Connection Between Packaging and Flavor
What your design says about your product matters most in quenching your customer’s cravings. Customer purchase depends on the message conveyed by your product. For instance, great taste can be brought out well by bright color and the right design.
Provide Information About Your Product
Do not disappoint your customers by providing false information about your product so that you can make a sale. Once customers realize this is what you are doing, it is very damaging for your products and brand. To avoid this fate, provide correct information about your products throughout your packaging and design.
Change Your Packaging with the Seasons
It is vital to follow the trends when you are packaging your product. Do not have the same packaging year after year. Package your product according to special events with themes that match such events.
Keep these seven tips in mind as you prepare for holiday-themed packaging. You’ll be sure to get the most out of your branding and marketing efforts and have a successful holiday season!
