3 Ways Product Packaging Affects Sales
Regardless of how efficient your product is at providing a solution or how well you have marketed its benefits, at its final stop, which is the store, the main contender of your product is your product’s packaging. Therefore, your packaging needs to meet the bar to help your sales grow successfully. Here’s how your product’s packaging directly impacts sales.
Protection
At its essence, the packaging should be able to provide the best protection for the product it contains. Any damage or defects in the packaging would impact the quality of the product and the efficiency of the packaging also determines how easy it is to use the product. If a product makes great promises, but users find it difficult to use, they’ll switch to easier options.
If packaging cannot deliver its essential uses, the products will have to be recalled. Even an accidental negative experience with poor packaging creates a lasting impression on first-time customers.
Attraction
Attractive packaging helps your product stand out in the aisle of stores and compete with others. Consumers who don’t like to spend a great deal of time researching products or are unaware of what to look for will heavily rely on packaging to give them reassurance and answers. Your packaging’s attractiveness also conveys its values and projects the brand image. Attractive packaging can easily grab impulsive customers’ attention.
Quality
The quality of the packaging speaks for the quality of the product as well. A flimsy packaging that looks of poor quality reflects that quality on to the product. As consumers associate poor quality packaging with counterfeited or fake products present in the market, high-quality packaging removes these worries and influences sales. Certain product categories also dictate a quality check on packaging as a regulation.
