8 ways to spice up your products with creative packaging
Packaging is like the clothes to your products. Just as there are fashion trends that capture the audience, there are packaging trends that are capturing the eyes of the consumer. A good packaging gives an excellent impression about what your product is about.
Since customers seldom weigh in the pros and cons of your product efficiently, they would look at packaging to make a decision.
So here are 8 tips needed to wow your customers into their first purchase.

Supplement the product
Supplementing the packaging with the product (Usually F&B) would create convenience for your consumers, especially when your product requires additional tools to be utilised.

Let it resemble the source of the product
We all get tired of seeing the same shaped packaging all the time. To make your products stand out, try a new shape, perhaps one that reassembles your source of the products.

Address the situation
Packaging can be dull when there’s nothing much to tell about the product itself. So why not use the packaging to showcase what the product is about?
Imitate the best
Illusion is a choice. Why not make your consumer associate your products with something better?
For example tap beer is better than canned beer, so why not make canned beer look like draft beer?
Make it fun!
Make your product memorable by associating it with something light hearted and funny!

Play with the process
You can also remind your customers on how the product is made, telling a story with the process.
Simplify the hassle
Sometimes, the product can be a pain to carry, so why not make it simpler to handle? Your customers will thank you for it. You can also cut material costs but improvising

Play with the brand / product name
Puns and wordplay are what makes a brand/product more memorable to the customer, so why not use the packaging as a means to deliver it?
