Benefits Of Using PackProbe

Most buying decisions are instantaneous and often emotionally driven. Meaning the “gut” reaction your consumers have towards a product should be considered when testing packaging designs, as you’ll be left with a good predictor of how they would react in the real world scenario, rather than over rationalisation of their choice. We understand how less than 20% of your vision is sharp, so when you’re out shopping, we use our peripheral vision (which is also blurred) to find and locate products to buy. As such, we test packaging in both its in-focus visual state and blurred. To create best practice, all packaging testing should be as realistic. Using 2D and 3D visuals help replicate the shopping environment.

PackProbe delivers an unparalleled understanding of the standout power of a design on the shelf, an estimate of market share and actionable recommendations on how to improve and maximise your ROI for the product.

PackProbe Testimonials

“Vision One were excellent to work with throughout the process. They understood our brand and its needs and took on feedback to make changes where necessary. We’re very happy with the level of insight gained.”

Salcombe Gin

“Absolutely no dislikes. Vision One is diligent from beginning to end on all projects that have undertaken with us. They take the time to learn about our products and solutions and markets. Vision One are known at Pitney Bowes globally as an extension to our European Marketing Team rather than a vendor/supplier who is providing a service.”

Premier Paper Logo

“Vision One were an absolute pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a strategic thinking market research agency. They had great client relations, always keeping you informed on the progress of your research project, they bought creative ideas to the table, and delivered on the strategic insight we needed.”

Domino Jewellery

It was a pleasure to work with everyone at Vision One, they truly felt like an extension of my own team, and they made what could have been an extremely stressful project feel safe and in control – for that I cannot thank them enough.

Fair For You

“Vision One were extremely professional, approachable and knowledgeable. Vision One offered expertise and insights into market research which we did not have in our organisation. This enabled us as a team to effectively deliver the project to the government client.”

ADAS Logo

“Thanks to Vision One’s support, the client’s prototype was validated and improved. Throughout the engagement, the team communicated regularly with the client and conducted weekly meetings to share their progress. They went above and beyond to understand and realize the client’s objective.”

Civica Logo

“It’s great that we had direct access to a market research expert such as Vision One’s Managing Director throughout the project, something we weren’t convinced we’d get from the large global business.”

Domino

“I just want to say thank you so much for the brilliant presentation yesterday. The work you’ve done has really hit home, which will make a massive difference to our work. We’re really grateful!”
