When you are looking for ways to increase the reach of your marketing, without increasing your budget, getting creative with bakery boxes will be a great option to explore. Many businesses are finding that using these containers gives them the opportunity to provide their current customers with a fun memento and carry their brand or logo into the community they want to serve.
Depending on what you intend to put in the boxes, you may want to get the small containers that hold a cupcake and are ideal for cookies or a small trinket. Or, you may want to choose sizes that are as large as a sheet cake. Because the boxes are very lightweight cardboard, they are easily used and are biodegradable with lock corners and lids that are solid or have a window.
The containers are available in a two piece design with lids that can be affixed with tape, or a one piece container that has locking corners. They can be purchased in lots as small as five or as many as 500. There are many colors and designs available, most commonly kraft, white, pink or cocoa. When you are ready to add a unique and creative way to reach your audience to your marketing strategy, here are a few ideas for how you can use the containers most effectively.
Most businesses have some kind of treat or trinket for their customers. They may have cookies available when customers come in or candy in a bowl. Some businesses have pens with their brand on them. Therefore, taking this marketing up to the next level and reaching your potential customers will be easy when you place them in branded containers such as these boxes.
Once you have decided on the items you are going to put into the boxes, choose a color and logo that represents your business and is easy to see. If you are going to use the smallest container for cookies, candy or small trinkets for children, having you logo printed on the lid of the one-piece container will be an ideal way to spread your brand. Since these containers arrive in a compact delivery box, they can easily be stored in your office and assembled as you need them.
These containers make a fun temporary pencil holder that can have your logo information on all four sides. When your customer reaches for a pen, they will see your name. In addition, the small containers are often a delight for children who are always looking for something to keep their special treasures in. This is a great way to spread your brand to potential customers organically.
When you are going to put cookies or candy in the containers, it will be important to remember that the items must be wrapped in saran wrap to keep air from causing the items to get stale or dry out. The containers are not air tight and do not hold liquid so, if you are going to use a liquid item such as bubbles in your boxes, be sure that the bottle they are in is sealed tightly to avoid spillage.
By getting creative, it is very easy to use bakery boxes to expand the reach of your marketing efforts in an affordable and fun way. It is always a good idea to keep paper towel dispensers around for these events because it looks good to customers when everything is neat and clean. For most businesses, the most successful marketing efforts are those that are least expensive.
