You are probably familiar with lanyards being used for security reasons, or as a promotional tool. But you may be less familiar with how lanyards work for your business in terms of brand identity with regard to your staff or employees.
Lanyards are an extremely cost-effective item when it comes to the workplace, they are versatile, cheap to purchase in bulk and have many uses when used for identification and access purposes. When customised with your business branding, they become a simple marketing tool that offers greater exposure for your brand, and it is in this where the benefits for staff lanyards really become apparent.
Uniting your employees behind your Brand
As well for promotional reasons, having a brand identity that is visible by all, such as personalised staff lanyards, can convey a sense of professionalism and improve morale amongst staff members, uniting them with a sense of purpose. This use of branded lanyards has been documented to increase employee productivity, which of course can be of benefit to any business or organisation.
This unification has a favourable impact throughout your organisation, making your employees feel safer and more likely to represent your brand with confidence and positivity.
Effective marketing tool
Personalising your staff lanyards with your brand has a helpful effect on your brand identity as a whole. It is a powerful brand exposure tool without the need for expensive marketing campaigns.
As visuals form a big part of your brand identity, be it a business or charity, your logo, company colours, and products should be used as widely as possible, to help you stand out or identify your business from your competition.
This means that getting your visual branding out there should be a key focus for you or your marketing team, and what better way than having your brand constantly on show with the use of personalised staff lanyards? Lanyards can be an affordable, effective solution for your business or organisation and by customising your employee lanyards with your brand, you can help to keep your brand identity consistent throughout all areas of your organisation.
Most companies will use staff lanyards as an item to carry identification. This gives you the ideal opportunity to get your branding out there and as lanyards are a practical item, they are more likely to be worn outside the workplace.
ID lanyards can be purchased with your custom brand and have a range of attachments available, from lanyard card holders to lanyard badge holders, so you can find the correct accessory to match your preferred form of ID. Having all employees wear your custom lanyards as a requirement to hold identification means your brand is regularly on display and your reach will increase.
How do I customise lanyards with my brand?
You can have your logo, company branding, or text directly printed or dyed onto lanyards, in a variety of pantone matched colours. This custom design feature is a truly attractive proposition to businesses looking to raise their corporate profile, or even charity organisations looking to increase awareness.
Most businesses will offer a full design service, like here at Only Lanyards. Rather than creating the design yourself, you can send over your logo, your colour scheme and any tagline you would want on your lanyards and then the lanyard company would mock up a design for you to approve.
We would always recommend choosing a reputable company for your custom lanyards. Check out Google and Trustpilot reviews and read the testimonials on their website if they have one. You don’t want to spend money on poorly designed and produced lanyards, so ask to see a sample if you are concerned about a business.
