Interested in sharing your insights on Product Packaging Design in Food & Beverage, Cosmetics, Pharmaceutical, Nutriceutical, and or Product Branding?

We're always open to expert contributions of knowledgeable and insightful stories on news and trends in all areas of Product Packaging & Branding Design in various industries such as Food & Beverage, Pharmaceutical, Cosmetics/Cosmeceutical, Nutriceutical & Sports Nutrition just to name a few.

We welcome ideas for original editorial content from guest bloggers. If you’re interested to writing  follow the four easy steps below.
Each post needs to be 100% original and cannot have been published on other websites or print publications. Bloggers should fully disclose any and all past and present commercial relationships to companies and people mentioned in their post.
ProLabel Inc. retains exclusivity of the post for 24 hours after it runs. After that, bloggers can repost on their personal blogs with attribution to the original post.
You’re welcome to link to your own social media profiles, your own blog, and other assets from your own business within your post, but ProLabel Inc. reserves the right to remove third-party affiliate lists.
Each post will be edited and copy edited by ProLabel Inc. Edits may be made to adhere with ProLabel’s blog style guidelines. We may also edit your post for length.
Your submission is subject to review by the ProLabel Inc. editorial staff and does not guarantee automatic publication.
Step 1: Craft a pitch explaining what you’d like to write about:
The best guest posts are written by authors who are passionate about their subject matter. Think about where your existing interests and expertise overlap with our five coverage areas.
While ProLabel Inc. editors are happy to help you refine a post idea, your pitch is more likely to be successful if it is specific and tailored to our audience of experienced professionals.
Craft a one or two sentence summary of your post, along with a suggested headline.
Step 2: E-mail your pitch to the editor:
Keep in mind that due to the volume of e-mail ProLabel Inc. editors receive, it may take up to a week for you to receive a response. Please email this blogs editor, David Inguanzo, David@ProLabelInc.com 
Step 3: Craft your post:
Most of our posts are about 500 to 700 words long. The most successful posts have a light and breezy tone, but make their points quickly.
Include a short bio — between 35 to 45 words — at the bottom of the post. Your name, your organization and a recent accomplishment or two are great things to include. We’re happy to link to your website, Amazon book page or Facebook or Twitter account if you like. Just be sure to include all the necessary URLs when you turn in your post.
If applicable, we will add stock art to accompany your post. Feel free to submit a headshot or book-cover image, where relevant.
Step 4: Promote and engage:
We encourage authors to respond to reader comments and questions about their posts.
Look for ProLabel Inc. to promote your content using a variety of social networks and e-mail newsletters, but also feel free to share that link with your own network for maximum exposure. 
The editor will coordinate a specific publication date with you and will send you a link to your post when it goes live.

“I never worry about action, but only inaction.” ~ Winston Churchill

Brand Leadership
“I never worry about action, but only inaction.” ~ Winston Churchill

There’s a simple, human reason why behaviors happen time and time again. We are creatures of habit and familiarity. It is much more comforting to keep hammering away at what we know than it is to stop, reappraise the problem and completely redesign the playbook.
Relentless speed and ubiquitous impatience have spawned an approach to strategy based on “not enough time”. The underpinning philosophy is that there are either not enough minutes in the day to do the thinking, or even if these can be found, the strategy will be outmoded by the time the company gets to implement it.
Does it do/have what it says on the box?
Brand Trust
Your word is your brand. Or rather, if the words aren't right and your consumers depend on them for vital information, your brand will quickly find itself in the cross-hairs of regulators, activist groups and annoyed consumers. The recent case concerning the contents of herbal supplements is more than an argument over percentages; at its core lies a simple question that underpins consumer trust.
Does it do/have what it says on the box?
You can see this as a labeling issue – particularly where food is concerned. Even that soon evolves into an argument about detail, consumer knowledge and mandatory disclosure. It doesn't change the fact though that consumers expect to get what they pay for and there are brands that continue, wittingly or unwittingly, to short-change them. The halo effect of these actions carries through to everyone else in the sector.
