Packaging is More Than Just a Box Good packaging brings much more value than you think
|
|
What do you think is a good packaging? Apart from durability and safety, appearance is an important element that should not be ignored. Customers will definitely notice your packaging because it is part of marketing. Do you remember the last time you shopped online and received a package?
If your packaging doesn't reflect your brand image, you may be missing out on the opportunity to make your customers aware of your brand.

Packaging is an opportunity to showcase your brand.
|
|
Even if your product is a basic daily necessity or a small item, a box with your brand on it can increase your brand's exposure. Packaging is the only marketing channel that can reach all your customers.
Of course, if you're selling masks, air sterilisers or books (and you're the world's biggest bookshop), you may not see any difference.
But if you want your product to appeal to your customers, the better the box should be.

First impressions matter!
|
|
A first impression is a one-off opportunity, and the time you have to make it count is very limited, often just a few seconds.
Being able to make your customers like you when they receive your parcel is a successful start. According to a US consumer survey, 34% of people agree that good packaging can greatly improve a brand's image. Especially for high-end brands, consumer perception is even more important.
According to a survey, 61% of consumers believe that packaging affects brand image. They believe that attractive packaging brings a sense of luxury, while 44% believe that the product will be good value for money.

Extend communication with customers
|
|
Does your packaging grab consumers' attention and tell them the brand story you want to promote? Does the content of your packaging make your brand stick in the minds of your customers? Unattractive packaging will shorten the time you have to communicate with your customers, which in turn will affect your ability to increase consumer loyalty to your brand and convey the details of what you are trying to say.
Therefore, good packaging not only enhances your brand image, but also extends the time you spend communicating with your customers, getting your brand noticed and recognised.

Your goal is for your brand to be promoted at high speed on the web!
YouTube's search engine has 52 million records for the query "Unboxing".
The most popular videos in this genre have received tens of millions of views (with a record high of 165 million views), and channels dedicated to "Unboxing" have reached millions of subscribers. In addition, many brands also record "unboxing" videos, such as Samsung. According to a Google consumer survey, one in five consumers watch "unboxing" videos.
|
|
In addition to the public videos shared on YouTube, there are also many videos shared on social media such as Facebook and Instagram. 39% of those surveyed admitted that they share a photo on social media soon after receiving a parcel.
The reason for this is clear - social media users love to boast about their new purchases and want social media recognition at the same time. The influence of social media is proving to be one of the most important reasons for shopping, with a survey by Beauty Retailing USA showing that 71% of people admitted that social media posts had encouraged them to buy specific products.

High-quality boxes will certainly not be thrown away immediately, and are likely to stay with your customers for a longer period of time, even becoming an important factor in their return purchases.
The packaging could be featured on the customer's bookshelf, or better yet, on their Facebook / Instagram page.
