lonelyFor many professional entities, custom lapel pins are a very important way to honor employees, partners, donors.
Custom lapel pins can fill various needs and take on many different forms. Companies can use these in many different ways. Popular variations include employee recognition pins, a recognition pin for service, as well as pins for monetary contributions and contributions of energy, time and resources. Some thought and consideration should be given when selecting custom lapel pins as an appropriate gift. For a recipient of one of these pins to wear it with pride and satisfaction, consideration to the logo, insignia, icons, and colors are important factors that a professional and reputable supplier can provide.</strong> For the recognition pins and years of service pins, this is even more important. This allows us to show appreciation which is often overlooked. The following tips will help you express the right message to your employees or team members with these employee recognition pins. After all, a recognition pin should represent a gift that has meaning for the recipient and giver alike.
1. Choose a customer service oriented company to create the custom lapel pins. Years of service pins and employee recognition pins aren't likely to be nearly as valuable if the sales approach adopted by the company producing these pins is quick and hurried.
2. During the approval process of a pin proof, it's important to remember that size can deceive. Be sure that your custom made pins are going to be the correct size. The proof should be used to gauge the size. If too small or large, the proof should be revised. While a recognition pin does not have to be worn on the lapel, using lapel as a guide ensures a nice fit on most clothing, whether collar or lapel.
3. Since employee recognition pins evoke company spirit, corporate colors – if important – should be considered. When working with a sales representative for custom lapel pins that colors are important and the color match should be precise. The color match from business cards alone may not be sufficient especially as it relates to getting the right coloring on the enamel.
4. Colors should look good on the recognition pin, not just on the proof.
5. Avoid recognition pin text so small that it's illegible. The manufacturing process requires the small text to be struck into the metal first during the manufacturing process, then filled with the color.
6. Epoxy may enhance the custom lapel pin design. The epoxy may help to prolong the life of the pin and provides a hard enamel effect without providing too much overhead.
7. The finished metal varies with different methods. Nickel finishes work and sliver tarnishes; gold or brass finishes may be other options for creating a solid pin. The right selection can be made often with the help of a reputable salesperson for custom lapel pins or any type of recognition pins for that matter.
8. Velvet boxes or bags can cost more than the employee recognition pins if not chosen carefully with cost in mind. Consider nice looking, but reasonable, recognition pin boxes.
9. Gemstones can add meaning for additional recognition including years of service.
10. Pins can include phone or website information engraved on the back side, possibly even serial numbers to account for each one individually.
