The Challenge with Traditional Animal Themed Souvenirs
Traditional souvenirs feature relatively few animals or a generic logo. This forces your guests into an impossible choice when they want to celebrate all their favorite animals from the day. As a result, these generic souvenirs often fall short of capturing the rich, multi-faceted story of their own personal experience.
Lack of Variety
Souvenirs are often name dropped with your name and few animals, failing to capture the many different animals that were meaningful to your visitors.
Personal Meaning
The narrative belongs to the attraction (this is an image an animal). It doesn't invite the visitor to inject their own feelings (this was my favorite animal).
Missed Opportunities
Generic souvenirs result in a basic, transactional experience that misses the opportunity to extend your museums emotional impact on your customer.
