So how do you incorporate packaging into your marketing plan? What are the most important considerations when integrating packaging with your marketing efforts? And most importantly, how can you enhance your approach to marketing and brand awareness through packaging?
How to Incorporate Packaging into Your Marketing Plan
It takes some planning to ensure that your packaging is leveraged to generate leads aligned with your marketing initiatives. Packaging can be an excellent marketing tool and may often be an afterthought when planning other marketing activities. Things like developing a website, maintaining social media connections, providing value to your audience through content such as white papers, brochures, or ads – these are all things we think about when we think about marketing.
Marketing with Eco-Friendly Packaging
While all of these things are an important part of successful marketing, considering your packaging is a critical aspect of your marketing plan and overall business plan. Packaging plays a direct role on your impact to the ecosystem, whether you can package your products in eco-friendly materials such as with more biodegradable paper as opposed to plastics. If this is important for your audience, it is important to relay that message on your packaging.
Increasing Brand Awareness with Packaging
How many times have you walked into a store, whether a convenience store, a department store or food market, and purchased something that you had no intention of buying when you walked in? For most people, this has happened too many times to count. The reason that consumers buy something they had no intention of buying, is almost entirely due to the packaging. Whether it is a catchy phrase, inviting colors, or something they might use later but feel like they just better grab it now, packaging can be the key that converts shoppers to buyers.
