Redesigning product packaging to enhance customer engagement by allowing them to interact with the product directly on the retail shelf. This approach can improve sales performance by making products more appealing.

Skills Required

Skills required include packaging design, consumer psychology, and marketing.

A practical first-revenue move is to partner with local retailers and showcase AR-enabled packaging in their stores, leveraging platforms like Instagram to promote the experience. A significant constraint is the initial capital required for AR development and the potential for high customer acquisition costs if the packaging fails to resonate with consumers.
