Tessa's Take: Have You Got Designs on Customers?

Tessa Stuart

I  repeatedly research pack design and pack communications for Firefly Tonics, innocent drinks, and Rude Health.  

For Rude Health, we needed to compel attention for their  - newly listed in 350 Tesco stores - granola. And explain what granola is - it's a new category - and unfamiliar.  And compete with all those habitual brightly coloured cereal purchases in the cereal aisle. Off the back of the consumer research we did, Rude Health employed a bright colour,  made the word Granola very big,  made the product shot appealing (it couldn't be a window for technical reasons but it looks like one), listed out the ingredients clearly.

Tessa's Technique: Awesome, Effective In-Aisle Research

Tessa Stuart

I've just done a project for innocent drinks, interviewing consumers in the aisles.  

There is no better final way to check the appeal of a new product before you commit to production runs than to put it on the shelf in the supermarket, and see if it catches shoppers' attention. Do they see it as they come round into the aisle? Do they pause, approach it and pick it up? Does it stand out against its competitors? Will it sell?

In this case, it did. It frequently went into trolleys and off down the aisle towards the check-out. I had to run after people and explain to them  that it wasn't quite a finished product, and that, no, they couldn't buy it yet.
