Inside The Box

11 06 2009

Its become evident to me that once someone tries CarboRocket they then want it in large quantities hence, the new 25-38 (3 or 2 scoops) serving pouches arriving ANY DAY NOW.  Really. In the meantime I will continue doling out the single single serving packs to whet your appetite and convert newbies to the addiction.

I can’t tell you how many hours I’ve agonized over how to package the single serve portions.  The first question was how many? 24, 20, 18, 15, 13, 12, 10 or 5 to a pack?  The next question was how to pack them?  Boxes, pouches, shelf friendly or hang tab friendly?

I think we are onto something.  I say “we” because this process has involved a lot of heads, shoulders, knees and toes.  Here is the first mock-up:

Want to put it on the shelf? Check.  Want to hang it? Check.  Want to try one of each flavor before committing the big bucks to the large pouch?  Check.  Just need a few in your jersey pocket for that long ride?  Check.

The new 5-serving variety pack will be out soon but I promise not until after all the flavors are out and available in the big multi serve pouch.  Which will be ANY DAY NOW.  I Promise!

What do you think of the black?

Packaging looks good. Put that box on display with all the other sports drinks and it will stand out. Most others plaster the whole label with colors that blend together. Your use of big patches of white and black jumps out.

I’ll be watching the rear window of my vehicle for a new black sticker. I’m on to you.

Black is good. It has a touch of evil to it. But I’m still waiting for the “Fun Dip” version.

I love it. Of course I am stoked about the 25-38 serving pouches for us addicts up here in Montana. I have numerous friends wanting more BANG for the buck :) I have people asking all the time and wish I had samplers for them. I hate to say it but I get pretty possessive with my stash.
