No one can deny how a visually-stunning food can starve you to death though you may not really be that hungry. Apparently, there’s an explanation for that. It is what they call aphrodisiac meaning a particular food can turn you on.
The overall aesthetic of something we present to public really has a true bearing. It gets people to consider your product and eventually make you recognizable.
But if you hide a beautiful product behind a box and not bother designing the box at all is useless. Product packaging works in wonders. If you want your brand to achieve universal recognition, you must look into this list of essentials to effective packaging and allow your brand to shine on the shelf.
Colors affect purchasing decisions
If anyone would ever mention colors white, black, and gray, the first thing that might come into their mind is arguably the biggest multinational technology company, Apple. Or maybe a striking red hue might remind you of another world-famous beverage company, Coca-Cola or your favorite fast-food chain, McDonald’s.
The huge breaks of these world-renowned corporations didn’t just happen overnight. For many years, they have studied and learned how to entice people to buy their products through colors. It’s not a coincidence that Coca-Cola, McDonald’s, Max’s, and hundreds of other fast-food chains are colored red. This color is as bold as Hulk shouting, Attention!
Your choice of colors can create a bigger impact on your business than you know.
Effective packaging reinforces beauty and value
Those huge companies come out as memorable as the color itself. However, your packaging must not only be remembered because of your color. You must also consider the feeling the product should evoke. Is your packaging easy to use or open? Does it scream “buy me” or does your product offer easy storage? These factors all come into play in varying degrees of necessity.
Shape, size, and images create an impression
Competition begins once products are spread across the shelf. If you are a new industry player, getting new customers will be an uphill battle. Consumers on the grocery store do not often read labels so make sure to get their attention by use of color, size, or imaging.
Make your packaging bigger, unique, and modern. You may also hire celebrities or influencers whom you can highlight on the cover of the package. The ability to stop a consumer and make them stare at your product or making someone intently visit your store or the grocery just to buy your product should be your ultimate goal.
