Branding with Product Packaging

Definition: BRAND – a particular product or a characteristic that serves to identify a specific product, a trade name or trademark or a particular kind or variety.

Let’s break it down a bit further to make it a little easier. The act of branding is the process involved in creating a unique name or image for a product, person or idea. This is done mainly through advertising and other similar means. However, it is also the action of building a convincing individual or unique presence in a consumer market that attracts and retains loyal customers.

If a picture is worth 1,000 words, a branded gift will leave your customers speechless, especially when you attach a gorgeous, custom ribbon. While your products may speak for themselves, it never hurts to give them a boost. Choose from a multitude of colors and personalizations to make these ribbons work for you.

Your Branding and Personalized Ribbons

According to a study by The Paper Worker, 52% of online consumers say they would likely return to a business for another purchase if they receive products in premium packaging. And 90% of consumers reuse product packaging boxes and bags after purchase. But the customer can even become another marketing channel: 40% would share a packaging photo if it is interesting. With that action, they recommend it to friends who might also become customers.

The key to product packaging is showing your customers that you care about meeting their product needs. Remember that first impressions matter, especially when it comes to a sea of packaging. So, show your appreciation on your packaging with a branded ribbon that will make your customers feel your quality.

Ribbons are an effective way to package your products. While a ribbon is often used as a decorative item, businesses can also use it for simple wrapping on a shoe box or a tag for something that is on sale. Ribbons are the ultimate staple of ornamental packaging while still maintaining simplicity. Choose from a variety of ribbon styles and a plethora of colors to brand your product packaging.

3 Ways to Find Business Success with Ribbons

Starting a business is hard work, and having business success requires sacrifices. But, many business owners don’t talk about what you need to keep that success going. This journey to greatness starts with you, the business owner.

While ribbons may not be the answer to every question along the way to success, they will play a key role in many ways. So, make sure to keep these ribbons on hand at all times so they are available to help you when you need them.

Custom ribbons will help in any business success by adding logos and other key company information.

1) Product Packaging for Business Success

Branded ribbons are a great way to help customers trust your business. Adding a company logo and slogan to ribbon rolls or badge ribbons is a great way to help others recognize your brand. Now that you have these ribbons, you can add them to name tags, products in your store and goody bags that are handed out at conventions and other events.

All other custom ribbons are also here to help your business succeed. No matter your choice, make sure your color, imprint and logo are consistent with your established brand. By adding these ribbons to things that will get passed around (think promotional products or samples), word of mouth advertising will start to work in your favor. Once this happens, potential clients and customers will start recognizing your brand.

2) Customer Retention

A popular way of promoting your brand is to give away promotional products and gifts. This can help you to build your brand recognition and increase sales. Don’t limit yourself on the types of gifts you give away. It can be something as simple as a homemade treat to an actual product sample. Just remember to brand it with your logo, company slogan or something that makes it truly yours. Use ribbon rolls with your slogan to wrap around boxes or gift bags.

Remember that visibility is key to customer retention. By using custom ribbons around your store or office, you are sure to find business success. Customers and clients will start to recognize your brand, and when they need what you offer, you will be at the top of their mind.

3) Employee Appreciation

A happy employee is a helpful one. So, keep your crew happy and you’ll get even more word of mouth advertising. And, by giving to your employees (whether it’s gifts or money), you will get something back.

When you give a gift to your employees, wrap it with care and a little bit of branded ribbon. Use badge ribbons with custom statements declaring your appreciation for a job well done. Or, use ribbon rolls with your logo and the text “Thank You” to show your employees just how much you care.

Ribbons Lead to Business Success

Custom Ribbons: Full Color vs. Imprinting

The printing process for custom ribbons is one of its most important features. While all of our custom ribbons have multiple uses, sometimes you have to know just the right ribbon to choose. And, with different printing options, at times you just need a helping hand to make that decision.

When a ribbon is imprinted, it means that a stamp is pressed onto a thin foil against the ribbon. Heat is applied and stamps this colored foil onto the surface of the ribbon. Because of this stamping process, imprinted ribbons will not hold fine detail. Keep your graphics and text a bit larger so that details don’t get lost in the printing.

A plus to imprinting is that you can have metallic printed onto your custom ribbons. This means that they will sparkle and shine. The metallic foils will help others to see what is imprinted on the ribbons. Imprinted ribbons are perfect for any fair, sporting event or other achievement days.

Print these full color ribbons with almost any design you want! And because of the printing, the ribbons capture detail finer than what imprinting will hold, so you can do whatever you need to with your text and graphics.
