Part 1/3: The Art of the Donut Box: Making Every Unboxing Instagrammable In the age of social media, a picture-perfect donut box can do as much for your brand as the donuts inside! A well-designed box not only holds donuts but also offers a visual experience that customers can’t wait to share. Take, for example, Crave Donuts, whose bright, playful packaging mirrors the vibrant colours and bold flavours of their donuts. Customers love sharing unboxing photos, tagging Crave in posts, and essentially turning their purchase into free, authentic advertising. Another example, DoughNats, allowing customers to preview the beautifully crafted donuts before they even open the box. This kind of visual engagement turns a simple box into a memorable part of the brand experience. In short, if you want to see your brand spreading like glaze on a warm donut, an Instagrammable box is the way to go! #CustomPackaging #GeorgettePackaging #EcoFriendly #SmallBusiness #Sustainability #PackagingInspo #CafeStyle #UnboxingExperience #Branding #MarketingTips #TorontoBusiness #KitchenerMade #PackagingDesign #EcoChic #FYP #ProductPackaging #CoffeeCulture #SmallBizLove #SustainablePackaging #PantoneVibes #PackagingGoals

How Custom Packaging Can Boost Your Brand’s Social Media Presence Part 3/3: Encouraging User-Generated Content with Custom Packaging To truly make a splash on social media, your packaging needs to invite interaction. Custom packaging that is visually striking, playful, or resonates emotionally with your audience can encourage them to share. Adding prompts, like QR codes for exclusive content or suggestions to "Tag us!" can help amplify that effect. Take Glossier as an example. Their minimalist pink bubble wrap pouches became instantly recognizable and highly shareable. Customers began repurposing these pouches for their everyday needs and posted their creative uses on social media, tagging the brand in the process. This packaging, coupled with Glossier’s encouragement to share and tag, led to a flood of user-generated content, making the brand’s packaging a social media staple. The packaging’s simplicity, combined with its functionality, inspired customers to engage with the brand, spreading awareness organically. Ready to elevate your brand with stunning custom packaging?

How Custom Packaging Can Boost Your Brand’s Social Media Presence Part 2/3: Creating an Unboxing Experience That Encourages Sharing The unboxing experience can be a powerful tool for generating social media buzz. Thoughtful custom packaging—complete with special touches like branded tissue paper, personalized messages, or even a small surprise—can make customers feel excited and valued, making them more inclined to share their experience online. Consider Apple and its iconic unboxing experience. Apple’s sleek, minimalist packaging design—with perfectly arranged components and high-quality materials—elevates the process of opening a new product into an event worth sharing. Thousands of consumers post their unboxing experiences on platforms like YouTube and Instagram, helping to generate excitement for the brand. By creating a memorable experience, the packaging goes beyond its practical purpose, sparking organic content that helps build brand hype and trust among potential customers.

We love partnering with clients who are deeply connected to their product, branding, and story. Bernice and Justin from Uasau Soap Inc. have built something truly special with their sustainably sourced, Indigenous soaps inspired by traditional Inuit methods. The beautiful box design comes from Megan Kyak-Monteith, an incredibly talented Inuk artist. Recently, Justin and Bernice joined forces with Aqsarniit Hotel and Conference Centre, a fully Inuit-owned business in Iqaluit, Nunavut. And these boxes? Just wow. 🧡 We’re thrilled to play even a small part in their amazing journey.

How Custom Packaging Can Boost Your Brand’s Social Media Presence Part 1/3: The Power of Packaging in Creating Shareable Moments Custom packaging can transform a simple product into a social media sensation. Imagine a baby oil brand that reimagines its packaging to evoke feelings of nostalgia or safety—perhaps by adding sleek, pastel-coloured bottles with embossed labels that speak to the loving bond between parent and child. Such visually appealing packaging connects emotionally with new parents, encouraging them to share their experiences on social media. A real-life example is Johnson's Baby Oil, which updated its baby care line packaging to a more modern, sleek design. Parents appreciated the new look, and it led to increased visibility as many shared pictures of the product in their nursery setups. The new packaging added a visual appeal that turned everyday items into Instagram-worthy snapshots, helping to organically boost brand awareness and build a stronger connection with consumers.

Part 3/3 : Packaging Pitfalls: Picking the Wrong Packaging Material Using the wrong material can affect product safety and customer perception. The choice of material impacts not only the look and feel of the packaging but also the product’s sustainability and protection. A great example is Coca-Cola’s move from glass bottles to plastic to cut costs. However, as consumers began prioritizing sustainability, Coca-Cola reintroduced glass bottles, reinforcing their commitment to eco-friendliness. What we are trying to say is that you must align your material choices with both the product's needs and your customers' values. If sustainability is important to your audience, choosing eco-friendly materials can build brand loyalty. #GeorgettePackaging #CustomPackaging #Custom #Packaging #Sustainable #EcoFriendly #CarbonOffset #SmallBusiness #Canada #Corporate #Kitchener #PackagingIdeas #InnovativePackaging #Branded #BrandedPackaging #Marketing #DigitalMarketing
