  • Pester Power – An effective on pack promotion utilizes the potential of pester power. Children will see a great on pack promotion, especially one with a gift with purchase, and increase the chance of sale through their childlike negotiation tactics.
  • Cost-Effective– These on pack promotions are incredibly cost-effective, they can be cheaply produced but the long term gain will make the venture very useful.
  • Customize – The more custom, the on pack promotions you offer, the easier you can brand them.
  • Customer loyalty: your customers will feel a sense of loyalty if you provide them with a gift from time to time. They will feel like they are getting something more than the product itself when purchasing from your company. This will increase their satisfaction and consequently their loyalty to your brand.

The benefits of an effective on pack promotion like this are profound. As outlined they certainly increase the profitability of the product offered.
