A great way to show recognition and accomplishment to your employees is through the use of custom lapel pins. Show appreciation, celebrate accomplishment, and encourage other team members to do their best. Employee award lapel pins can also show your recognition to the employee’s years of dedicated service.
Having your own pins manufactured is easier than you may think. Most companies can have your pins delivered to your door in about 10 days after you approve your design. The process starts by contacting a manufacturer of custom lapel pins with your idea or logo. From there, a graphic artist will work with you on finalizing your idea and showing you a proof that will represent the finished product.
There are many different options when it comes to choosing your pin type, so its best to deal with a professional organization. Modern manufacturers of lapel pins often include free design service and consultation. This process insures that you will be happy with your lapel pins when they arrive.
Bill Wenkel, Executive VP of Lowe’s Home Improvement stores, spearheaded an internal program that recognized its team leaders for individual store goals in late 2011. Wenkel knew he wanted to use the Lowe’s corporate logo, but was at a loss as to how to use that logo in the design of his custom lapel pins. Designers from Lapel Pins Limited offered their assistance in creating unique, yet identifiable awards for the Lowe’s program.
Each of Wenkel�s lapel pins displayed the Lowe�s logo, cut to shape, with the addition of an area on the design that could be silk screened with the applicable Lowe�s store number. In all, Wenkel required about 900 lapel pins for his recognition program. Wenkel�s design was finalized in about two days, at which point his order began the manufacturing process. Approximately ten days later, Wenkel received his order delivery and began distribution through area store managers.
The recognition program received widespread praise form Lowe�s employees. Wenkel found that the recognition lapel pins brought unity and a sense of accomplishment among the ranks. When you walk into some Lowe�s stores today, you will see employees proudly displaying their award pins.
Award pins can be made using any available manufacturing process. Most customers chose the soft enamel method for recognition purposes because of their low cost and versatility. All you need to design your own custom award lapel pins is an idea � the experts will take it from there and deliver a crowd pleasing product in ten days or less.
