Do you work here?

April 23, 2018 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

“Do you work here?”

Do you and your crew get this question a lot? Could it be because

you’re not wearing shop name badges?

Reusable name tags are cost-effective for even the smallest staff, says TGtbT.com

Click to see these name badges.

If you’ve hesitated in investing in name badges for your staff because there’s too much turnover, here’s an idea: Reusable badges!

They’re easily snapped together, come in a variety of sizes, shapes and fasteners, and they even come with sheets of labels. And of course, as resalers, we love that they can be recycled when one staffer leaves and another comes on board!

Other sources include Nametag Inc. and Imprint Plus. Your local print shop can probably order these for you as well; remember to Shop Local when you can!

    Since my background is in the music business and I spent a lot of time backstage, my staff name tags look like VIP backstage passes at a concert. I designed them to be super colorful, printed them at CVS photo and then laminated them. Basic lanyards make them easy for staff to wear with anything. Customer LOVE knowing our names and who to ask for assistance.

      Love it Tammy! Name badges that emphasize the branding of a shop are WOM-bait! (Folks, Tammy’s shop is Wicked Thrift at wickedthrift.com : visit for a fun experience!)
