Packaging consumer goods is one of the most important aspects of marketing. The eye-catching iron box packaging design should make consumers feel novel and unique from the psychological touch. Packaging identifies the product and assures consumers that their purchase is correct. However, this happens only if the brand owner matches the quality of the product packaging to the needs of the consumer. Packaging shall not hinder consumers from purchasing. To do this, marketers and design experts should adopt some technology.
1. Start as early as possible
Start design packaging as early as possible during product development. Draw some ideas to get an intuitive look at the appearance of the final product. Compare the performance of some competitors in packaging. Packaging ideas may also come from different categories of products. Research and develop models based on target markets. Consumers are the source of what they want to see or need.
2. Keep it simple
For many products, less is more. Attempting to oversell products through packaging may have the opposite effect. Make sure the packaging performs the necessary actions, that's it. The product should be easily transported, including applicable warnings, and the product should be properly preserved and protected. Custom packaging or even folding carton packaging can be expensive, and if there is no purpose, the marketing costs will be wasted.
3. Consider brand and positioning
Market positioning and brand are important factors that need to be considered. Understanding a target market for a particular product includes determining what they expect from that product. Survey of end users will help determine effective and compelling packaging. Learn how competitors’ products are unable to meet their needs and use them.
