Template overview

Template overview

What is this template and why does it matter?

It measures appeal, standout, and communicated attributes for a packaging design, usually across variants. It matters because packaging changes are expensive to reverse once they're in production.

What questions should I ask?

Appeal, standout versus competitors, attributes communicated, and purchase intent based on the design alone.

How many questions should it have?

5–8 per variant.

When / how often should you send it?

Before finalizing a new design or redesign.

What does a strong result look like?

A clear top-performing variant tested in a realistic shelf context. Corvane Predict and Orchestra test the real image in a simulated shelf.
