First Moment of Truth (FMOT)
Packaging has long played a key role at the First Moment of Truth (FMOT) — the point of sale, whether in-store or online — and the Second Moment of Truth (SMOT), when consumers experience the product after purchase. But with the rise of e-commerce, secondary packaging is increasingly important at the Zero Moment of Truth (ZMOT), when consumers first discover or research a product through digital channels, TV, or print media.
- Effective FMOT packaging aims to grab the consumer's attention and convey the brand's message in a way that encourages purchase.
- FMOT packaging plays a vital role in influencing this initial purchasing decision.
A well-designed package that surprises or delights consumers can add distinction, reinforce the positioning of an upscale or luxury brand, and build awareness of the company’s sustainability efforts.
