Including Packaging in Paid Ads

Advertising has been used to boost packaging and product appeal and has done so for many years. You need to make sure that the product, promotion, price, place, and product packaging are there, especially when marketing.

Advertising costs a lot, and every single brand is trying to make it so that they reach the most customers with the least amount spent.  Packaging is a good way to offer this, so they can properly identify it, and then they’ll be able to talk about you once they get it. 

Virtual Unboxing 

One good way to make your paid advertising pay off, and boosting ROI, is virtual unboxing. 



This is a way for you to show the unboxing of the product, and some visuals, and you can use this on Facebook or Instagram posts that are sponsored. 

This provides customers with a good feeling on what brands are selling, how this looks, and the packaging, including what this holds. 

With unboxing, you’ll be able to make every day, normal sorts of products into something that’s very exciting, and quite fun. 

Did you know that less than 30% of people are actually read by users, so gifs are how you want to communicate. 



New Design Experimentation 

Even before these customers see the designs that you have, you’ll be able to show them how these packaging products and the like are then received by other customers. 

You might wonder why you’d ask customers about this, and if it’d be better to do this through social media, or organic posting.  While they do work to a small degree, the paid ads provide a level of reach that neither method normally does.  This gives customers a chance to target this and are better than just hoping that someone finds you in an organic manner. It’s actually a huge way to drive business to your company. 

For instance, some companies may have their initial designs that are there, but as the brand changed, they added different visuals that are there. 

One company kept a bit of the original identity of the brand, so that customers could find them, and were able to identify these products. 

Subscription Box Product Showcase s 

Finally, you can use packaging to showcase subscription boxes.  For some companies, packaging is very important for them to find these products.

Ecommerce as well is god as well, because there is a limit to the amount of contact that you get to have with customers. That means, you need to make sure that the presence is the highest tier that it can be. 

With the correct packaging, you’re building the first impression that clients have, and is something that a lot of customers will start to see. 

You want to make sure as well that you have the right types of budgeting that you can get for this.  If you don't have a large budget, don't worry.  You can boost this growth rate as things get better. 

Provide Good Information and Visuals 

When you’re building an ad campaign, two things that you need to make sure that you do, in order to get your packaging to advertise for you, is to have good copy, content, and visuals that really pop.



You want to make sure that customers get everything they need without having to do a google on just who you are. 

Provide this information in the sense that the next step of the customer would be to get them to press the shop button and buy something off the website. That’s the ultimate goal, and if you hit that, you win the game of ecommerce.
