You definitely need an event badge if you are planning a special event. You see, event badges shouldn't be an afterthought. They can heighten the excitement for your event, and sometimes, they engender communion among guests. Event badges are handy when hosting any event, be it a business event, a concert, a conference, or a trade show.
What You Need to Know About Event Badges
Event badges typically carry the attendee's name, in the case of a personalized badge. They can have the individual's job title and the event organizers' name and logo. And they can also carry pictures or illustrations about your event.
A legible font that's easy to read is best on badges. Also, ensure the attendee's first name are large enough to be read from a distance. Some organizers include a barcode or Quick Response that could be a security feature or that simply directs users to an important page on the web.
Event badges are as large as you see necessary. On 4over4.com, you can select a custom size. For example, a 2" X 3" size will be more appropriate for a simple event name tag. However, if you need conference name badges with more room, the 4" X 6" size will suffice.
Event badges are best with lanyards. These lanyards hold the badges to the bearer. They are usually 1/2" to 3/4" wide and can be custom printed to your desired taste and style. You can also print your logo or brand name on them. Please contact our support team and relay the custom features, color, and design you want on your lanyard for a custom quote.
Benefits of our Event Name Tags & Convention Badges
The benefits of event name tags and convention badges are many. We’ve condensed these benefits to a 5 points list.
The simple fact that they carry attendees' names and are worn uniformly means guests will have less hassle starting a conversation. In addition, using the people’s names while addressing them for the first time eliminates communication barriers and makes even perfect strangers sound like friends.
Will you have dignitaries at your event? Then, you can appreciate them with an event badge of a unique color scheme. Otherwise, a personalized badge with the name of your guest is enough to denote their special status.
Security is always a concern at events. Event badges are surprisingly effective at countering minor security challenges. Alternatively, special event badges can serve as a security pass to areas with elevated security permissions that are only accessible to staff, like backstages. Additionally, they may carry a unique bar code that grants the bearers entry but denies others.
No less noteworthy is that event badges are fashionable. If your event has a theme color, guests may try certain dress combinations that complement your colors. As a result, the overall appearance and uniformity become pleasing.
If your event has a social media hashtag, print it on the badge. That way, you could spark social media discussions and comments about your event. As a result, your social media pages will gain visibility, or you may trend.
