At SunDance, not only do we produce print and packaging for established brands and products, but also upcoming innovators and spec projects. In fact, sometimes our print projects are designed and conceived entirely as a building block to something else. SunDance sales executive Steve Kirchof was contacted to work with a production company and design a series of production prop boxes for the Ben Stiller/AppleTV production of Severance.

Why Is Design So Important?

I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase, “don’t judge a book by its cover.” While that’s an important rule in polite society, it goes right out the door when it comes to retail applications.

How many times have you chosen a bottle of wine, based on the interesting label alone? Or selected a new haircare product because the package stood out on the shelf against all others? Hopefully in those instances, you were also pleased by what was inside. But it only emphasizes the importance of great design to make your product stand out from the competition.

The Impact of High-Visibility Enhancements on Shelf Presence: A Second Study

Capturing consumer attention can result in big business. High-visibility enhancements, further discussed in our previous post, increase product visibility, stimulate attraction, hold attention, and convey an image of value. High-visibility enhancements allow packages to jump off the shelf and become prominent in front of customers. The An Initial Study into the Impacts of High-visibility Enhancements on Shelf Presence case study indicates clear advantages to foil stamping on packaging and other high-visibility enhancements. This secondary study complements the previous study and provides additional validation, while also taking an additional step by evaluating purchase data. It shows that in a highly competitive category, where consumer personal preference is a significant factor in the purchase decision-making process, the addition of a high-value enhancement to packaging significantly increased the likelihood of purchase.
