Corporate Gifting and Making Impressions

The holidays are here… are you ready for corporate gifting this season?

Corporate gifting is one of the best ways to grow and maintain your business. Most companies agree that the basic reason for gifting is to acknowledge relationships and improve personal connections. Corporate gifting is an opportunity to connect with your clients, strengthen employee ties, and share your holiday cheer. Recruiting, retention and development are three other great reasons to give a corporate gift.

But remember, the packaging is just as important as choosing the right gift for your associates. And what better way than to wrap them up with love, care and your own personal flair! By simply adding a fun personalized ribbon, each present will become a unique creation for any special person in your life. Spend the time and money on the wrapping to reflect the value of your client and employee relationships. Customized gifts and wrapping keep your name in the recipient’s mind, so why not make it personalized? The best gifts are heart-felt and to show it, custom wrapping helps to convey your intentions and sincerity to the recipient.

For many companies, corporate gifting is a fundamental detail within their marketing strategies. Most everyone would agree that, if done properly, gift giving is a practical and sensible way to build a partnership with valued associates. By doing this, the bottom-line becomes a social, rather than a financial, benefit. So, whatever your gift choice is, remember to brand it with a particular flair…you!

Badge Ribbons: Top 5 Reasons To Use Them

Badge ribbons share helpful information, open the way for conversations to begin, and add identifying information to any badge. Plus, they can be fun to wear.

Badge ribbons are satin acetate ribbons with your custom text imprinted on them. They are sometimes called name tag ribbons or convention ribbons. Usually, they are attached to the bottom or sides of event badges.

Badge ribbons are inexpensive, so they are perfect to use in many different ways. In addition, they are available in various ribbon and imprint colors, so you will always find that ideal combination. Their uses are extensive, but we have chosen to share our five favorite ways to use them in this post.

1. Identification at Events

A badge ribbon with a title such as staff, council member or sponsor is easy to see when attached to a badge holder. The titles also allow attendees to quickly recognize and identify exhibitors, judges, speakers, honorees and other important figures at a conference.

2. Event Networking with Badge Ribbons

Unique ribbon titles are frequently used at conventions and other events to create buzz over an idea or theme. Offer a variety of ribbon titles with creative thoughts, a fun idea or personalized titles. One or more ribbons can be attached to the name badge and attendees can share their unique personalities and have fun while networking.

Use badge ribbons to promote activities and sales

3. Use Badge Ribbons for Promotional Advertising

Inexpensive promotional tools are hard to find, but ribbons are a great option. Many retail establishments use them during sales to promote them to their customers. Employees with a ribbon attached to their name tag become walking billboards. Because they are customizable, you can add a logo or business name and choose from various ribbon and imprint colors.

Acknowledge achievements with badge ribbons

4. Ribbons Reward Good Work

Recognizing achievement is a great way to have fun identifying and celebrating accomplishments. Highlight how your people have made a difference at your next meeting and award them with a small gift and a bright ribbon announcing their achievement. Or, provide a colorful ribbon for every participant at your next event to take home and remind them of the wonderful time they had.

5. Share an Important Message or Reminder

Custom ribbon bookmarks are a great way to share an important message or reminder for visitors, members or special events. For example, have custom ribbons imprinted with suggested readings, an event schedule or a favorite quote.

Donation Spotlight: The Durham-Orange Genealogical Society

Coller Industries Incorporated has many wonderful customers. We work hard to make sure everyone gets quality name tags and personalized ribbons. Sometimes, we are able to take the time to especially recognize one of these wonderful customers by making a donation to their personal identification needs. We love donating time, products and ideas to these companies and organizations. This month we were able to provide a donation to The Durham-Orange Genealogical Society (D-OGS).

According to Holt Anderson, D-OGS Charter Member, D-OGS is “an active genealogical community dedicated to the research and preservation of family history of Durham and Orange counties in North Carolina. We provide research assistance and educational opportunities to our members and the public through outreach programs, monthly meetings, newsletters and forums. We meet once a month to hear speakers on topics about general research techniques, North Carolina maps, Indian Trading Paths, cemetery records, advances in technology, DNA results and so much more.”

The Durham-Orange Genealogical Society primarily focuses on family history research. They hold meetings on the first Wednesday of each month and these meetings are free and open to the public.

Badge ribbons were made with the “distinctive D-OGS logo,” said Anderson, “so that members who are attending large, and sometimes statewide or national, meetings can be identified (quickly).”

Anderson’s hope is that by wearing these name badge ribbons, “It will help to foster fellowship and promote the organization to prospective members.”

Name badges are an important part of any large meeting. They help to identify the wearer to everyone around them. By adding a badge ribbon, such as a Full Color Horizontal Badge Ribbon, one can be identified with more than just a name or a title. Badge ribbons can be used as awards, recognition for an achievement, or in a fun way with a silly title or message.
