Package Design Affects Sales

Package Design Affects Sales

Like it or not, I judge a book by its cover.
And the “cover” for every product, is its package.
Great packaging design, therefore, affects my buying decisions.
Therefore, package design affects sales!
It happens as I ponder which yogurt, beer, or whatever product I want to purchase.
That package design doesn’t happen by accident.
My eye is drawn to the packaging because of science and good data.

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Great packaging design certainly helps a brand.
However, the opposite is true as well.
Good, bad, or ugly packaging design can hurt a brand (or even kill it).
Unfortunately, some companies focus only on their product.
They fail to invest research, time, and energy in their product’s package.
