Jungle Scout's Million Dollar Case Study Session #7: Branding & Package Design
- 1. THE MILLION DOLLAR CASE STUDY Session #7: Branding & Packaging Design Journey to $1mil - 100% for Charity April 5th, 2017
- 2. Where are we? ▸ Continued negotiations with 3 suppliers ▸ Decided on our favorite ▸ Sent the deposit this morning! :-) ▸ We need to send them our packaging design by Monday
- 3. ▸ Packaging Basics ▸ Legal Regulations ▸ Amazon Guidelines ▸ Hiring/Working with designers ▸ Made it look good! Webinar Overview
- 4. ▸ Work with your Factory: ▹ What do you normally use? ▹ What are you familiar with? ▹ Templates? ▸ Last Resort ▹ Get your packaging made elsewhere Packaging made Easy Asking for a Brand Name at the End!
- 5. Our Template
- 6. ▸ Requirements ▹ Barcode (more on this later) ▹ Country of Origin (i.e. made in China) ▹ Brand Name (for brand registry) ▹ Potential other certifications or guidelines, google “Packaging requirements for ….” ▸ Nice to have ▹ Visually appealing ▹ Company contact info What to put on the packaging?
- 7. No great, centralized resource for packaging requirements ▹ Google “Packaging requirements for …” ▹ Ask your supplier if they have standardized packaging and look what’s on there ▹ Ask an inspection company like AsiaInspection.com ▹ Look at your competitor's products (especially large brands) ▹ Dangerous/regulated/complex products have a higher chance for requirements Where do I find out what else?
- 8. ▸ Most Relevant/Common ▹ Poly bags need suffocation warning ▹ FNSKU & no other barcodes ▹ Plush/Fabrics & Baby - max 1”x1” opening ▹ All around durable packaging (should not open or break when dropped, etc.) Find all of them here: http://amzn.to/2kZDIhf Amazon Package Requirements
- 10. ▸ Why do we recommend FNSKU? ▹ Say NO to “Stickerless Commingled” inventory ▹ Therefore, you need an FNSKU ▹ Avoid the extra work of labeling FNSKU’s on top of UPC/EAN ▹ Just print FNSKU’s on your packaging FNSKU vs. UPC vs. EAN
- 11. 1. Purchase from a reseller like speedybarcodes.com 2. Create your listing with that UPC in order to get your FNSKU 3. Once your product is live, apply for brand registry then change the product identifier to something like model number. This keeps you out of trouble with Amazon. You need an EAN/UPC to set up your listing
