September 2010 Chapter Meeting Announcement
September 2010 Chapter Meeting Announcement - Tuesday, September 14, 2010
Consumers continue to buy more through e-commerce sites or direct from product manufacturers. While functional, the boring brown shipping case doesn’t add to the brand image. Some leading companies have stylized their boxes to make a great first impression and improve the buyer’s interaction with the product. Anticipation (ooh, what’s in the box?!) and eco-economy (making a brown box green) enhance experience.
"OUTSIDE THE BOX"
Online shoppers appreciate secondary packaging that makes a great first impression
