5 Ideas on Packaging that Save You Money on Rebranding

Packaging materials such as bags with customized logos can go a long way in someone remembering you and your business. Remember, we can capitalize upon the physical senses….

1. People respond to visual stimuli. Lively packaging, tastefully coordinated paper and ribbons, complementary color tissue paper with your imprinted logo or color schemes will make an immediate and lasting impression upon your customers.

2. Don’t be afraid to experiment with packaging. Make it whimsical, festive, and surprising. Combine materials that you may not have thought of combining previously.

3. Regardless of the types of packaging you make available to your customers, make sure you consistently provide them with quality and variety. Customers will quickly learn to expect the wonderful packaging choices you offer. They will associate fine packaging with your business.

4. Make sure to have a number of packaging choices that can appeal to the age range of your customers. An older customer may not appreciate a funky new wrapping paper for a wedding gift.

5. Stay current with the marketing trends in packaging. For example, if your customers want environmentally sensitive packaging products offer them that choice.

In that way you provide your customer with beautiful, visually interesting materials while promoting conservation at the retail level.

The impact of dynamic packaging cannot be underestimated as it touches the senses and creates an immediate emotional response. If you want people to remember you, move them emotionally. Packaging has the capacity to do just that and rebrand your business in the process.
