\nDid you know that by deciding to ship or display your items in a cardboard box, you\u2019re already ahead of the game? Yup, people are loving cardboard these days.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
A recent <\/span>survey conducted by Ipsos<\/span><\/a> found that:<\/span><\/p>\n
- \n
- 71% of those surveyed said they were <\/span>more likely to buy brands that package their products in paper or cardboard<\/span><\/i>, rather than other materials like bubble wrap or plastic.<\/span><\/li>\n
- 63% of those surveyed said that <\/span>paper and cardboard packaging<\/span><\/i> makes a product seem premium or high quality.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Ok, so you\u2019ve made the smart decision to package your goods in <\/span>cardboard boxes<\/b>, but is that enough to get your products noticed? Nope.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
You can\u2019t just throw your goods in a nondescript box and call it a day.\u00a0 No \u2013 in today\u2019s world of <\/span>unboxing<\/span><\/a> videos and endless social media diatribes about the whole package opening experience, you\u2019ve got to go above and beyond with <\/span>ideas for your box design<\/b> to stand out from the competition.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Today\u2019s consumers have so many options. They no longer have to rely on what\u2019s available in their town \u2013 or even their country. They\u2019re looking for a complete shopping experience \u2013 whether they\u2019re checking out a store shelf, or browsing an ecommerce site. And they want the boxes their products come in to wow them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Think about what makes you buy a certain brand. Perhaps it\u2019s word of mouth, or maybe loyalty, but more than likely packaging is also a major consideration.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
So, just how important is <\/span>box design<\/b> to your bottom line? Well consider this:<\/span><\/p>\n
- \n
- A study by Ipsos found that <\/span>72% of Americans\u2019 purchasing decisions<\/span><\/a> are influenced by <\/span>packaging design<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/li>\n
- 66% of those surveyed by WestRock<\/span><\/a> said that they tried something new because the packaging caught their eye.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
So, don\u2019t leave box design as an afterthought. <\/b>
\n<\/b>
\n<\/b>It\u2019s important to come up with a creative, yet practical, <\/span>box design<\/span><\/a> so you can fully leverage this powerful marketing tool.<\/span><\/p>\nFunctionality Counts When Reviewing Box Design Ideas<\/b><\/h2>\n
