Product Packaging

Part of the research was surveying the retail stores who are on the front end of sales, and better understand how consumers perceive a product. We asked them a simple question: "What will your customers ask about this product?". The answers helped us significantly in prioritizing content, and providing them with a simple approach, we named the product 'Power Kit'.
