What’s the difference between branding and packaging?
Branding encompasses your entire business as a whole. It includes everything from color schemes, design assets, and your logo to your brand voice, story, and messaging. It can also define who you are and why you do what you do. On the other hand, packaging design has a different purpose. The first is protecting the product(s) inside. The second is a marketing opportunity to share your branding with consumers and leave a lasting impression.
Why is packaging important in branding?
Depending on where consumers interact with your product, packaging is either the first or last touchpoint they have with your brand. On the shelf, it’s your chance to stand out and be seen in a sea of cardboard boxes. In e-commerce, it’s an opportunity to generate word of mouth marketing and unforgettable experiences. Both of which… tie back into your brand identity. Plus, you’re not the only one who gets to define your brand. Customers create their own idea of your business, depending on their experiences.
