Facts About Name Tags For Employees

By Dorothy Myers


Name tags are very important marketing tools in the modern world. Many companies have their employees wearing these badges in order to attract potential customers. Networking in most corporate events highly relies on the ability of the parties in attendance to identify each other and converse. Name tags help a lot with this issue. They were once simple items, but now their level of sophistication has gone up a lot.

It is routine that a name tag contains the name of the individual putting it on. However, name tags for employees may also have additional information concerning the wearer, the event and the corporation represented by the wearer. It may also contain position of the wearer. This helps anyone that comes in contact with the wearer to know the relevant information about the individual by just taking a glance at the badge.

These badges should be designed appropriately for them to be effective. The use of suitable type of font and size is one way of attaining a great design. Whereas some font types are legible, others need the reader to strain so that they can read. Thus, font sizes that are minute make it difficult for some people to read.

Even though monochrome badges are trouble free to draft and economical to purchase, they are relatively ineffective when compared to multi-colored ones. Multi-colored badges display better information such as corporate logos, event description and job title. Using multiple colors enables the use of solid colors thus eases identification.

Badges are normally placed within plastic sleeves for the purposes of protecting them from wear and tear. This is known to take place in conferences that last days. In addition, such cards are normally installed with barcodes or QR codes for various purposes, including granting people access to different facilities. It is therefore vital to make sure that the plastic sleeves used are able to allow the QR codes or barcodes or to be scanned with no problem. This feature should always be put to test before application.

The durability of the badge material is very important. Since badges are meant to be reused, it is important to ensure that they can last long enough to be used at multiple events. Also, some events usually last for several days or event weeks before they end. In that case, the card should be made from heavy vinyl. However, if the event is meant to last only a day, then thin vinyl tags are sufficient.

To save more on badges, it is advisable to always buy in bulk. For instance, instead of buying just 50 cards or lanyards, one can go ahead and buy 500. The remaining cards or lanyards can be kept for use in the future. The purpose of this is that there are a lot of savings obtained from bulk purchases.

Generally, a badge is usually 4 inches long and 3 inches wide. Some people design their cards too large or too small. Cards that are too large appear out of place while cards that are too small will be inefficient in the purpose for which they were designed.
