What Name Tags For Employees Do

By Dorothy Myers


Name tags are essential tools for marketing in the contemporary world. Numerous organizations have their staff wearing these badges so that they can attract prospective clients during events. In most corporate events, networking is highly dependent on participating parties identifying each other and communicating. These two aspects of marketing are now very sophisticated, even though a while back they were simple tools.

Typically, a name tag will contain the name of the wearer. Depending on the audience and the nature of the event, name tags for employees may also contain other pieces of information about the wearer, the event, and the company they represent. These pieces of information include job position, company being represented, and responsibility of the wearer at the event. This way, anyone who needs to converse with the wearer can just look at the badge and know about relevant information about the individual.

For these badges to be effective, they need to be designed in the right way. One the ways of achieving good design is by using an appropriate font type and font size. Some font types are easily readable while others require the reader to put in some effort in order to read them. Similarly, font sizes that are too small may be troublesome to read to some people.

Among the easiest to design and cheapest to buy are the white and black badges. However, there efficiency falls below that of colored tags. Event description, job titles, and company logo are some of the characteristics of multicolored tags. They are much better than white and black ones. Use of multiple colors provides the possibility of using company colors, which makes identification much simpler.

In conferences, badges are usually placed inside plastic sleeves to provide protection against wear and tear that may happen to them. Also, such cards are usually installed with QR codes or barcodes for various purposes such as granting wearers access to various facilities. As such, it is important to ensure that the plastic sleeves in use are capable of allowing the barcodes or QR codes to be scanned without a problem. One should always have this feature tested first.

It is very critical to gauge durability of the material to be used to make the badge. Badges are meant to be used over and over again in numerous occasions. For this reason, it must be ascertained that they can last long enough to serve their purpose. Furthermore, some events take days or even weeks. This makes it necessary that the cards be made of high quality vinyl. Light vinyl can be used if the event in which the card is to used only lasts a single day.

Bulk purchases make it possible to save some money on the budget. For example, one should purchase 500 cards instead of just buying 50 cards or lanyards, so that the remaining cards or lanyards can be kept for future use. By so doing, one realizes a lot of savings for their business from the bulk purchases.

In general, a badge usually measures 4 inches by 3 inches. Some people usually make their badges too small or too large. Very large cards will look awkward while those that are too small will be ineffective at their work.
