How can you use product displays to highlight your brand's unique selling proposition?

Showcase your brand's essence through strategic displays – start by unveiling your unique selling proposition (USP). Like a spotlight on a stage, clarity on what sets you apart is the key. Let your product displays tell a compelling story, making your USP the star of the show. It's the art of leaving a lasting impression.

Make it so the target customer can relate it to their everyday wants and/or needs. They need to see it being used by them. If it's a new technology, then you need to explain the benefits of how it will save them time or money. The reason why "influencers" are used is because whatever the product is, they make it a must have, they make it the "cool" thing to have whether they NEED it or not. You need to know, is this a fad item or something that it really adds value to their everyday lives. Be honest with yourself of the reality of what it really is. I say this because some fall in love with their product and over order what the actual sales may be. There is something to be said about under ordering the initial order. Supply/demand

If your product or service could talk, what would it say? What are the goals of the client? And does the product or service deliver the client a defined "benefit" to help achieve those goals? I know I am oversimplifying.

Leverage Storytelling: Incorporate storytelling into your product displays to connect with customers on an emotional level. Share engaging narratives that demonstrate how your products can improve their lives or solve their problems. Use testimonials, case studies, and customer reviews to reinforce your brand's credibility and USP. 6. Utilize Technology: Integrate technology into your product displays to enhance the interactive experience and provide valuable information. Use touchscreens, augmented reality, or interactive elements to guide customers through product features and benefits. Digital signage can also showcase dynamic content, such as rotating product promotions or customer testimonials

Effective product displays can showcase your brand's unique selling proposition (USP) in several ways. Use eye-catching visuals and branding elements that align with your USP. Arrange products strategically, emphasizing key features that set them apart. Incorporate informative signage to communicate the value proposition clearly. Consider interactive displays or demonstrations to engage customers directly. Consistency in design and messaging across displays reinforces brand identity. Implementing storytelling elements that highlight the brand's journey or product development adds a personal touch. Regularly update displays to reflect new offerings or evolving USPs, keeping the brand fresh in consumers' minds.

The best place to showcase your brand will be the main category, encompassing the other brands that may operate in this space. While category management principles will dictate the placement of your brand, it may be helpful to have your brand (and more so if it is a new one or or one having lower shares) placed as close as possible to the category leader. This will allow for a direct comparison, and possibility of it being picked up, assuming that there is some distinction from the key player. Even if this doesn’t happen, it at-least allows for your brand to enter the consideration set of the shopper. Reminders can be enabled by getting the brand placed at secondary points of sale, be at the cash tills or next adjacent product categories.

Trade shows displays in my opinion you want to be close to your competitors on the floor. I remember one time I bought a boat at a show and wasn’t very familiar with the names and qualities. But I knew I wanted a boat to do certain things. The closest competitor had nearly the same equipment. But at the time one of the 2 companies put up a sign saying 0% interest. I bought that one. Knowing now that the other company probably could have offered the same. Although that was my issue the monthly payment. With the expense of promotion you have to take out all your tools.

The best display place is on the home display or primary display or main shelf where products of the same category are displayed in the store. The above is true because customers usually look for products in the aisle where the category is displayed. Secondary diaplay is just bonus displaya. The war is at the majn shelf. Even if you rent a shelf or display area as a secondary display, you still have to pay attention to the display on the main shelf.

In conjunction with the category, constantly work towards measuring the impact of displays and secondary placements. It will be important for both sides to be willing to iterate and learn what works best. End of the day those placements or displays which generate a healthy RoI will be beneficial for the store team and the brand.

Measuring the success of a display program must always refer to the main objectives of the program itself. Though.the ultimate goal is to generate sales, display program normally exercised to: (1) introduce a product or brand, (2) influence product buying and selling so that audience will switch to the product being communicated, (3) remind existing customers to buy again or buy more.

Also consider design thinking 1. What is the target customer base and what relative time they will pass by your display, whether physical or digital. This should be coupled with relevant measures of success. Eg - one might hover over an attractive display but do they end up buying what’s on display? 2. People buy with emotion and their senses - what sense and emotion will this appeal to? Eg - if you’re selling plum cake, is there an aroma around it?

Highlight your advantages and benefits without having to mention your competitors vulnerabilities. This gives your audience the opportunity to ask further questions, or put the pieces together themselves!
