If you sell your product online, via your website, Etsy or Not on the High Street, your packaging is the first physical touchpoint in your customer journey. Consider branding your small business packaging to enhance your unboxing experience.

But don’t fret—there are still simple, quick, and effective ways to brand your packaging…. #packaging #supportingsmallbusinesses #ecommerce #retail #smallbusinessowner #brandedpackaging #custompackaging #packagingdesign #branding #design #graphicdesign #box #logo #printing #packagingideas #custombox #packagingbox #marketing #packing #smallbusiness #brand #packagingsolutions #brandidentity #digitalprinting
