Do you have the right setup to make high-quality name badges?

Unless you own a top-quality printer, you may not get the results you want. It needs to be serviced before trying to make your own name tags. Without the proper tune-up, the heads may not be aligned properly. That can mean you waste a lot of time and money trying to get the printer to do the job you want. If the printer needs any kind of maintenance or has any eccentricities, you may end up being frustrated and annoyed without enough high-quality name badges for your event. Little mysterious spots or ink splotches can ruin a whole set of name badges before you realize it. 


Are You Really Saving Money?

Printers use a lot of ink, usually more than you anticipated before beginning the huge task of printing name badges. If you want to incorporate full-color logos (and you should!), the ink will go fast. If you include any kind of background color or other design, you can run out of ink frequently. Along with purchasing the ink for the printing project, you’ll need plenty of labels too. Remember you’ll need more than just enough to make name badges for all your attendees. Printing mistakes are inevitable. You’ll need quite a few extra printable name badges. Don’t forget to calculate the wages of employees who may be in charge of printing your name tags. 


What will a cheap design really cost you?

You may not be able to accurately count what having low-quality name tags may cost your company when it comes to reputation and rapport. You can easily lose the entire marketability of name badges by putting out a less-than-professional name badge. Remember that name tags speak for your company, they help create a connection with clients and are profitable for networking. But if you take the cheaper road, you lose those benefits. Professional name tags make a great first impression for you and help make your company and logo memorable. You want that to be for all the right reasons, right?
