With summer drawing to a close, autumn and the holiday season are on the horizon. For brands large and small, this means one thing: the holidays are just around the corner. There’s no better time than now than to start planning for them. This holiday season standout with custom packaging, designed by you!
If your small business is thinking of offering special holiday packaging—either for seasonal marketing or as a gift wrap option—an early start will help ensure you get exactly what you need when you need it. Read on to learn about the many benefits of custom seasonal packaging for small businesses, along with how DIYPack can help you bring your vision to life.
The Benefits of Seasonal Packaging
Customized shipping boxes help increase your brand value while simultaneously improving the customer experience. These benefits exist all year round; however, seasonal packaging has its own set of unique advantages. If you’re running special holiday sales or campaigns, custom packaging is the perfect way to promote them. The more “buzz” you generate about your seasonal specials, the better results you’re likely to have.
Improve Brand awareness
Seasonal packaging is also an additional branding opportunity. It gives you a chance to create custom holiday shipping boxes that reinforce your brand statement, reinforce your relationships with your customers, and build consumer trust.
Create a Customer Experience
On a related note, seasonally themed custom boxes feel special to customers and help foster extra excitement for the package and its contents. Personalized packaging is also highly shareable on social media, which further boosts your brand presence with user generated content.
Build Brand Loyalty
Lastly, seasonal packaging has a practical benefit: it can do double-duty as gift wrap for products shipped directly to recipients. In the hectic holiday season, your customers will appreciate the ease of doing business with you—which also reduces paper waste, too! Having a product that is an all-in-one solution will keep you top of mind for the next holiday season or even their next celebration.
