Labeling Plays an Important Role in Marketing

Your products label and package design plays a number of rolls in product marketing.  Together the elements create a product story and will get consumers to take notice.  The industry has taken the idea of labeling and packaging and combined the two elements thus creating flexible packaging.   Customized flexible packaging helps increase company growth by increasing brand exposure and product sales.

Flexible packaging consists of a pouch or packet style container that is made from a variety of materials to create and all inclusive, resilient package and label in one.  Depending on the manufacturers goals flexible packets can be beneficial to both sales and marketing tactics.  Flexible pouches are frequently used to replace bottles, create a single use variation or even in sample distribution.

Flexible packets are one of the newest additions available to the packaging and labeling community.  They are one of the most technical products that packaging and labeling companies offer to manufacturers.  The label graphics and text are printed directly onto the pouch material.  Flexible packaging materials vary from paper to thick film.  Flexible paper packaging is ideal for solids and powders whereas film packets are better for liquids, gels, and lotions.  Both paper and film will create a reliable seal that protects the packaging contents, reduces spoilage and protects against product tampering.

Flexible packaging is popular within several different product markets including health and beauty, beverages, condiments and more.  One of the main reasons why manufacturers choose flexible packets over other options in packaging and labeling is ease of use and consumer convenience.  Not only can flexible packets are used to package large quantities they are ideal for packaging single-servings for on the go consumers.

Flexible pouches can be used for a number of products in a wide range of industries.  The benefits of this style of packaging and labeling go well beyond the design and function.  They are ideal for the sales and marketing of the products they hold.  Some of the valuable ways in which flexible packaging can be used to benefit brand and product awareness include:

• Flexible packets can be fastened directly onto other products within the companies brand for sampling. This type of marketing is often used in magazine advertisements, brochures and direct mailings.
• Flexible packaging is also a perfect way for marketers to distribute samples within store locations, promotional events and trade shows.
• They are a great option for the distribution of travel sized products.
• Another genius way marketers use flexible product packaging is to acquire consumer information. Consumers that request a free sample often fill out a consumer card that gives their information to manufactures.

No matter how you incorporate flexible packages in your lineup there are a number of ways it can be done to benefit your business.
