Print name tags successfully

Name tags are small but decisive event accessories and an integral part of corporate events and networking events. Well-designed, they are part of a convincing corporate identity and support employee communication. Printing name tags is therefore part of the basic equipment for successful event planning.

The function of name tags

Name tags are worn on lanyards or with pins and magnets and show other event participants who you are, which company or institution you work for and, if applicable, what position you are in. The use of name tags is useful for most event formats. Especially, of course, when many participants come together who do not yet know each other. But it also makes sense to print name tags for internal events: They give participants who do not yet know themselves well the opportunity to iron out uncertainties. Nobody likes to ask whether Christoph isn't Christopher after all and what the name of the colleague from the third floor is again. It's easier for newcomers to join the team: The name tag is an integrative sign and allows colleagues to get to know colleagues in a relaxed and easy way. It has been proven that name tags mean that the name is used more frequently in conversations. On the one hand, this makes you remember names better and, on the other hand, creates a better working environment.

What information must be printed on a name tag?

When it comes to name tags, less is more. Only the most necessary information should be printed here. Of course, the name is a must. If the company logo is easy and easy to read, it is a good choice to show your affiliation with the company and at the same time promote branding and connect the company with real people. For trade fairs, it is also a good idea to print the job position on the name tag, so interested parties know immediately who they are dealing with. A clear design, appropriate font size and easy-to-read fonts are essential for printing name tags.

Print name tags on site
It is a good idea to print name tags directly on site upon admission. This means that there is no need to pick out pre-printed name tags, but printing is started automatically when you check in. Only the guests who actually show up get such a name tag. This saves resources and the freshly printed name tag is right at hand. Preconfigured print stations print a name tag in just a few seconds. The design is defined in advance and pre-produced. In this way, the printing of name tags is easily and simply integrated into admission management.
