Christmas is potentially one of the most profitable and competitive times of the year for many businesses.
Consumers worldwide are looking to spend money on the perfect gift and stocking filler. However, that doesn't mean that we can sit still and assume the customer will come to us. After all, customers want presents that are perfect for them and will compare brands and products before committing to purchase.
One of the best ways for brands to stand out from their competitors is through their packaging.
Careful planning and preparation of seasonal packaging design allow you to make the most of the Christmas period, maximizing engagement and increasing sales figures.
It can be tempting to use the season to experiment with a completely new design concept but remember to stay true to your brand and be recognisable to your customers. This is significant when attracting new customers, as it will ensure your brand is easy to find once the Christmas period is over.
Festive colours of gold, red and blue or seasonal characters can complement your branding for the holiday season without overwhelming your customers. Remember to elevate your brand identity, not dominate it.
We are all aware that Christmas is the busiest time of the year for most businesses. By utilising Christmas packaging you can use the positivity of the season to connect with your customers and encourage them to purchase. In contrary, you can also attract the attention of new customers and convert them into long-term users of your products.
Christmas is the perfect time to create product bundles. Marketed as festive gift packs you can respond to your customers seasonal needs and desires. Festive packs will also help to increase the number of units you sell whilst boosting your sales.
Christmas is the perfect time of year to experiment with new products, promoting as limited editions to enhance further customer interest. No matter what your product this is an ideal opportunity to release your new brands and see how they perform.
