Design Pattern #8 : What’s In The Box

Welcome to my Persuasive Design Patterns Series where I identify & share the common visual patterns that marketers use to design high converting ads & landing pages.

When curiosity kills your conversions!

In recent years, many companies have started to show what is inside their product’s box in ads, instead of just the product itself. There is a reason one of the most viewed videos on YouTube are the unboxing videos.

But why is that???

To counter ambiguity!

Customers hate ambiguity. It paralyses them and stops them from taking action. They might be concerned about the sturdiness of the box, or the aesthetic if they are gifting, or different components within the box or any other reason.

So what do you do?

This is where Design Pattern #8 : What’s In The Box comes in handy.
