Got Soap? How To Package It Simply, Effectively
And Within Budget
Whether you plan to sell on the Internet or in a retail
outlet, do you know the one thing that you need to know to
ensure your products success? You guessed it, THE PACKAGE.
I know how hard it is to have a great idea or product, and
then to have to dig through mounds of information to learn
how to package it. The information you need to know to get
it right is overwhelming.
Packaging is complicated, one mistake and you could be
back to square one. When that happens, unfortunately you
may have lost a lot of money in the process. So, it pays
to do it right the first time and understand the problems
before they become insurmountable. That's why I have created
my special report presented at the Soapmaker's Convention
April 29 in Burlington VT, “Got Soap? How
To Package Your Products Simply, Effectively And Within Budget.”
So don't wait till its too late. Packaging is a complex
equation. It IS the sales person. It IS your brand. It IS
your company and if you haven't given it the consideration
it deserves it will fail or most certainly not live up to
its expectations.

Packaging Your Invention To Sell by JoAnn Hines Packaging
Diva
Even if you have a great invention without a package
it will never sell. Lets face it consumers are a fickle
bunch. It doesn't take much to turn them off. If fact,
you only have 2.6 second to turn them on to your invention
through your packaging. Yes, your package is your number
one salesperson and once you have lost the opportunity
you may never get it back.
People always contact me whenever they are in trouble.
Most of the time it is after the fact and they want the
quick fix to their packaging woes. Well, it doesn't work
that way. Packaging is a complicated intricate process.
Understanding it requires time and consideration. It’s
not just about getting the product there. It’s also about
getting the product to SELL.
That's where the unique role of packaging comes into play.
Packaging is a complex equation. It IS the sales person.
It IS your brand. It IS your company and if you haven't
given it the consideration it deserves it will fail or
most certainly not live up to its expectations. It’s a
tangle of information out there and what you don't know
CAN get you into trouble. Learn why you should always make
packaging your first thought not your last.

Diva on Board
"I need more publicity for my packaging products
and services."
I hear this from everyone - individuals and inventors,
small businesses, nonprofit foundations - even large businesses.
Whether you're working your own guerilla publicity campaign
or paying out hefty sums of your PR budget, you're not
getting as much media attention as you'd like. As a matter
of fact, even the PR agencies aren't getting as much media
attention as they'd like!
I think I've found a solution for many of you... Diva
on Board
Here's how it works:
This program, aptly titled Diva on Board, is designed
for business owners and executives who wish they had someone
to talk with and to advise them about maximizing the company's
exposure through appropriate media opportunities.
Now you can include the Packaging Diva as an adjunct for
your organization ... and for a very reasonable investment.
The Diva has 30+ years of branding experience and can become
your ongoing resource for information and advice on all
aspects of PR for your business.
It's a retainer program where I watch for opportunities
to promote your company and its services. I will help you
craft the correct spin to get the most mileage from every
opportunity. You can also use me to help you assess other
promotional opportunities such as whether to exhibit at
a trade show and which trade shows will give you the most
return on your investment. It's like having a customized
marketing director just for your business!
The difference between traditional PR that doesn't always
work and Diva on Board is me. The Packaging Diva is a
brand name that is recognized around the world. That's
because my success has been built on researching trends
and innovations that affect the packaging industry and
sharing that knowledge with my clients to help you recognize
how your business can be impacted.
I'm able to offer this unique opportunity to a few select
clients in 2007. Sign up today for 3 months of the Diva
On Board and see the effects that good media coverage will
bring for your business.
The fee is $1,000 per month and is payable at the beginning
of each month. Diva on Board will begin accepting memberships
from everyone on January 1, but we're letting the Diva's
readers sign up now because we want to be sure you get
a space. Enrollment is extremely limited, so sign up quickly
to guarantee your place.
