A Fresh Look Goes Farther Than You Think
If you’re on top of your game, you’ve worked hard to establish your brand and everything that makes your product recognizable. Now, it’s time to play around with it! This may have some positive impacts that you may not expect. By updating labels or packaging, you give your customers the feeling that your business is present and has a heartbeat. This can make current customers feel more devoted to your brand or product, while also opening the doors for new customers who may notice the refreshed look of your labels.
There’s nothing wrong with engaging your current customers more, as well as providing an avenue for new customers to discover your product. It’s a win-win all around!
A Chance to Say Something New
A new year can bring about changes for your business or products, for sure, but it can also introduce new messaging about your vision, mission, or goals. This is your chance to highlight anything that makes your product or business special! This can involve showcasing ‘eco-friendly’ on your labels or providing a story about why you started your business in the first place. These are great techniques to connect your customers with who you are, and with the advent of the new year, it’s the perfect time to add some more personalization to your labels.
Some fun ideas are:
- Adding a personal story to your label
- Adding eco-friendly highlights
- Introducing new imagery
- Adding fun additions like jokes or fun facts
- Updating messaging or taglines
- Adding contests or codes for landing pages
Show Your Stuff
While updating your labels or packaging is a great thing to do, it needs to be done the right way. Yes, of course, we mean with printing, but we also mean with the designs you choose! Too drastic of a change could cause your current customers to not recognize your product. To this note, we recommend only updating some aspects of your brand while also following your brand outline. That means sticking with the same branding colors, fonts, and logos but changing the use or visual appearance of your labels.
We do suggest consulting with your graphic designer or seeking one out to help you visualize the best approach to your new labels—our team is also happy to help!
Off to the New Year!
We’re excited for the new year, and we hope you are too! We can’t wait to see what we will create for you and all the other wonderful businesses we work with. If you’re ready to add new labels as one of your business resolutions, connect with our team today.
