A Wonderful Use for Lanyards

There are many uses for lanyards, especially when it comes to holding identification badges. Large corporations often provide staff with ID badges and custom printed lanyards to hold them, and these badges can also be used by staff to access certain areas of the building. Different badges may be provided to visitors that will prevent them accessing secure or sensitive areas of the premises.

Astute businesses know that lanyards are not only a useful item but they are also great in terms of creating brand awareness. These lightweight and inexpensive items can be branded with company logos so that whenever staff are out and about, the company name will regularly be exposed to potential new customers.



A Unique Use for Lanyards

Lanyards are not only great in terms of promotion, but they are also a useful tool when it comes to the health and safety of customers. In fact, Gatwick Airport launched a new lanyard-based initiative to aid passengers with hidden disabilities and conditions back in May 2016.

The voluntary lanyard is provided to passengers who might not have noticeable conditions but who may still require additional assistance when travelling. The discrete sign alerts staff to the fact that certain passengers may benefit from support and help. Despite the new initiative being launched, airport chiefs were keen to point out those passengers requiring extra support could also continue to approach members of staff if they needed help. The lanyard is entirely voluntary. It is expected that other transport networks across the UK will adopt a similar system if the Gatwick project is a success.

Greater Awareness

The voluntary lanyard system for those with hidden disabilities and conditions came about after a collaboration between officials at Gatwick Airport and a number of charities in the UK, including The National Autistic Society, Alzheimer's Society and Action on Hearing Loss.

The aim of the project is to create an understanding of the challenges that those with hidden disabilities can face when travelling. It is hoped that people will become more aware and will do more to help where they can.

The lanyard alerts staff to the fact that some passengers may, for example, need extra time for preparation at security or could need additional time in order to process specific information. It is also a discreet sign that passengers need to be with their family or might need staff to use clear signs and verbal language to be understood.

Customised Lanyards


Here at Ribbonworks, we think the idea of using lanyards to provide a discreet sign to staff is fantastic. Our lanyards are made from top quality materials and are available in a range of styles and colours. If you would like more information on our products and services, contact us here at Ribbonworks today.

Printed Lanyard for Events Promotions Employee Use

The uses for printed lanyards stretch as far as the imagination goes, from security and identification, to event organisation and promotion.

Printed lanyards are some of the most versatile accessories you can have working for you, especially considering you can combine their functional and visual uses. An example of this would be giving out printed lanyards at an event so you can identify a paying guest while also having the details of some advertised future events printed onto the lanyard itself. This is just one of many possible ideas you can use genuine quality printed lanyards for.




Below we'll go through three of the most popular uses for high-quality printed lanyards.

Printed Lanyards for Promotion

Printed lanyards can do wonders for promotion and advertisement of a brand, product, or event. Many businesses and organisations choose to give out printed lanyards for free to the public so that they can then advertise their brand indirectly through the normal everyday use of their printed lanyard by the public.

You can customise your own printed lanyard to look however you like and to display whatever information you please; you're in control when you order from Ribbonworks.

Printed Lanyards for Employee Use

There's nothing like a unique printed lanyard to increase security, increase productivity, and save money. A printed lanyard can be used within a business or organisation to easily display identification cards, to keep your important keys and tools handy, and to reduce the likelihood of misplacing items that are costly to replace.

In many ways, printed lanyards will save you time, fuss, and money in the long-term, so why hesitate on ordering your own unique printed lanyards for your organisation?

Printed Lanyards for Events


It is commonplace now for commercial hosts of events to give out printed lanyards to their guests when it comes to events such as fairs and gigs. Using printed lanyards in this way is a great way to identify paying guests as well as being a nice gesture to be appreciated overall. Why not create a unique printed lanyard with details of all your upcoming events on them to also advertise to your guests as well?

A printed lanyard with an eye-catching design and simple details can really make the difference for current and future events.

Durable and Long-lasting Lanyards for Public Sector

Ribbonworks produces many quality lanyards for the public sector; so many different professions can benefit from durable and long-lasting lanyards.

Our lanyards for the public sector are perfect for almost anyone, especially if your workplace involves showing identification and/or keeping track of keys and other small items. Schools, hospitals, police stations, and fire stations are just a few examples of public sector areas in which quality lanyards for the public sector do what they do best in keeping people organised.




Below we'll talk about three different areas of the public sector where we believe our durable lanyards for the public sector make day-to-day work more organised and secure.

Lanyards for Public Sector Hospitals

Doctors, nurses, and other important medical staff need to stay organised in order to continue providing an extremely important service; it's also true that hospitals need to be secure and safe by nature. Our quality lanyards for the public sector can be used for both keeping important items close by, like pagers and more, and for showing identification cards at all times when worn around the neck.

It's always a great move when public sector hospitals invest in unique lanyards to keep their premises secure and streamlined.

Lanyards for Police Stations

Police stations are another important area where lanyards for the public sector can be a great help. Once again one of the best ways a lanyard for the public sector can be used here is for displaying identification cards so that the station remains even more secure. However, a strong lanyard in this setting can also still be used for keeping track of keys and other important items in the station.

We genuinely believe that every public sector profession can benefit greatly from having genuine quality lanyards for their employees; the police force is no exception.

Lanyards for Public Sector Schools
Schools are perhaps where lanyards for the public sector can shine the greatest. Not only can all school staff, from teachers to janitors, increase security by always displaying identification, they can also decrease the chance of them losing any important keys and cards.

The fuss that lanyards reduce and the security that lanyards give make them a no-brainer when it comes to the public sector.

Buy Lanyards for Public Sector Professions

The truth is that almost anyone in any profession can benefit in some way or another from investing in strong and long-lasting lanyards. Lanyards for the public sector, however, are where lanyards are currently being supplied extensively.

Practical Uses for Lanyards

Most people assume that lanyards are designed purely to hold security badges and are only used by large corporations with hundreds of staff members. However, there are many ways to make practical use of lanyards; below we have listed just a few examples.



Promotional Item

Businesses hoping to create brand awareness and get their name out there will invest in personalised lanyards designed to be given away to existing and potential customers. Lanyards are cheap and the more you buy, the cheaper they get per unit. That means a company can buy thousands of these items at a very affordable price, instantly getting a cheap way to advertise the business.

Taking Your Lanyard on a Camping Trip

Those who have ever been camping will be aware of the problems most campers face when trying to keep various items secure. Lanyards are the perfect way to hold items in place when camping. They are ideal for hanging wet clothing from trees or for securing tools to your clothing to ensure they are easier to reach when needed. Some people even use lanyards to keep a bottle of wine or beer held secure in a cold river!

Make Your Own Tool Belt

DIY lovers will know that having tools within easy reach can really make a job much easier. That is why tool belts are so popular. If you have ever seen a tool belt, you will know that it is made from top quality leather and lanyards, so why not make your own. Use your own belt and secure the tools you will need to it using top quality lanyards.

Keep Your Items Where You Want Them

Why stop at a tool belt when you could secure many of your items in place using lanyards? Lanyards can be used to keep various items in a particular place in the home, attic or garage. Many individuals keep their tools in the garage and to ensure they are within easy reach use lanyards to secure them to a wooden shelf or the garage wall. You can also use them in the home to keep small items such as keys or nail clippers in a safe place.

Out and About

Many people just do not realise the benefits of lanyards when it comes to keeping personal belongings safe while out and about. Lanyards can be used to keep personal items such as mobile phones, iPods, cameras, and wallets secure. This can help prevent precious items being stolen or lost.

School Trips

Teachers taking children on school trips often worry about the kids wandering off, but lanyards help make it easier to identify them. Lanyards with ID cards are the perfect way for children to be identified and located if they wander off. They are a practical way for staff to ensure that trips are well organised and run smoothly.

Wedding Favours

If you are having a large wedding and are inviting a lot of friends and extended family members, you may be worried about people not knowing each other. Presenting your guests with name badges on personalised lanyards is a great way to break the ice among them. All they will have to do is have a look at the name badge and they will already know that person’s name. Having the lanyards printed with the bride and groom’s names as well as the date and venue of the reception means that guests can take these away as a memento of the big day. In addition, if the wedding is one with a free bar, it will mean unwanted guests cannot simply stroll in and drink the bar dry!

Helping to Identify Staff

There are times when it is essential that you can quickly identify staff;in a hospital setting, for example. Hospital staff tend to wear ID badges secured to lanyards around their necks. This means that patients and visitors to the hospital can quickly identify a member of staff in the event of an emergency. As well as holding their ID badges in place, lanyards are also used to hold keys, pens, watches and security cards.

Lanyards have proved to be an essential item in many businesses. If you need personalised lanyards for your business, contact us here at Ribbonworks today. We are a leading provider of top quality personalised products for a variety of applications. Contact our helpful staff right now for a free, no obligation quote.

Personalised Lanyards - Great for Branding

These days, most large companies take the security of their staff and their premises very seriously, and employees and visitors are generally required to have ID badges on their person at all times. This means the humble lanyard has become very popular when it comes to providing a secure way of holding ID badges around the neck.

Savvy employers are now making the most of lanyards and are having them personalised with a company logo as they know that this means getting the company name out there as a cheap form of advertising.



Inexpensive Advertising
One of the biggest benefits of investing in personalised lanyards for a business is the fact that they are, as mentioned above, an inexpensive form of advertising. They can be personalised with a company logo and purchased in bulk. Most businesses know the cost of a marketing campaign can be hugely expensive, but investing in personalised lanyards can cut this cost dramatically.

Here at Ribbonworks, we provide top quality woven lanyards in a variety of colours and styles and all can be personalised with a choice of wording and images. Our personalised lanyards are also available in a variety of widths as well as having a selection of quality metal clips to suit all preferences and requirements.

Be Creative
We would advise customers to be as creative as possible when it comes to using their personalised lanyards as branding tools. To make the lanyards stand out, choose a colour that is bright and noticeable. Think about what you want from your lanyard; is it just to be used as a tool for keeping ID and security badges in place, or is it something that will be noticed and therefore provide the company with free advertising? We are betting it is the latter and, for that reason, we would urge you to use our superb service to ensure you get the most from your investment. Choose from a selection colours and styles and use images and catchy slogans to represent your company in the best possible light.

Useful Product

The great thing about lanyards is that they are so useful. They can be issued to staff to hold ID badges, as discussed above, or they can be used to hold wallets and car keys. With keys secured to a lanyard, which is in turn secured to clothing or the inside of a handbag, the issue of lost keys will never be a problem again. This will save your staff valuable time and is something they will definitely appreciate.

No matter what type of business you have, you are sure to find a use for personalised lanyards. Not only are they ideal for large corporations but also colleges and universities can make use of them as well. And companies that hold exhibitions and conferences find them extremely useful for attendees when it comes to displaying name badges.

Promotional Product
In addition to being an essential item for staff, personalised lanyards are also a fantastic promotional product that can be gifted to existing and potential customers. Because they can be used to hold keys, wallets, badges, and even mobile phones, in place, they are handy items to have. By giving them out as gifts, you will be creating brand awareness for your company.

Promotional items received by customers tend to invoke a sense of loyalty, but you need to make sure you provide your customers with top quality products. Where customers, or potential customers, are concerned, there is nothing worse than receiving a substandard gift - even if it is free. At Ribbonworks, we believe in quality from start to finish. That means we provide an excellent customer service and products made from the finest materials to ensure customer satisfaction every time. Our fast delivery and competitive pricing have helped us to become one of the leading providers of personalised promotional products in the UK.

Multi-Functional Printed Lanyards

Lanyards are one of the UK's most popular promotional items, and not just because they are handy to use when combined with company ID cards.

While many of us imagine lanyards as mainly being a popular accessory for conference staff to wear, these nifty neck straps have a multitude of uses that may make you wonder how you ever lived without one!

Next time you decide to offer promotional gifts to new or existing customers, be sure to extol the virtues of printed lanyards; soon you could find your business name being worn around the necks of many grateful customers. For a marketing product that works tirelessly for any size of business, printed lanyards provide a simple yet effective way to promote a business name.

Some of the many ways that printed lanyards can be used by grateful recipients include the following ideas:

Use lanyards as a promotional tool in schools and colleges. After all, the youth of today could be customers of the future and what better way to ensure loyalty than handing out free and useful gifts? The use of printed lanyards in educational establishments will make sure that student ID cards are easily accessible, especially when going on field trips, science fairs and the many extracurricular activities that are available to students.

Using lanyards and simple ID cards is becoming popular at large weddings and other celebratory events where people may not know many of the attendees. This provides an excellent way to break the ice and get guests socialising and chatting. Handing out custom printed lanyards with the bride and groom's names and wedding date makes a wonderful wedding favour too!

Lanyards are fitted with useful clips, making them ideal for carrying items to allow the wearer to perform activities with both hands. This opens up all sorts of opportunities to promote a business by targeting specific groups of people who will find a lanyard useful. Examples include sports people who require the use of water bottle lanyards when training or competing and outdoor workers in remote areas who need to rehydrate frequently. Horse riders will also find lanyards become an essential piece of equipment to hold printed cards with emergency details should they be involved in an accident when riding far from home.

Lanyards are also ideal for using in the workplace, for carrying ID cards in an environment where it is important to be easily identified, and also for carrying objects that are essential for use in the work environment. For example, waiting staff will keep track of order books and pens if they are hanging from a lanyard; professional handymen can hang small tools and torches from them, leaving both hands free to perform essential jobs; and farmers have somewhere safe to hang tractor keys, wire cutters, hoof knives and the myriad of small items that are essential in the agricultural world.

Skiers and snowboarders also find that lanyards are invaluable for holding ski lift passes, proving more comfortable to wear than metal accessories that may rust over time.

Lanyards are suitable for everyday use and not just for sporting or work-related activities. Many people find lanyards invaluable for holding house or car keys, pens and pencils, and other items that are regularly required but often mysteriously vanish just when they are needed.

Printed lanyards also provide the perfect solution for regular mobile phone users, holding the phone in an easily accessible place. How many times have you missed an important phone call because your phone has been buried in a pocket or bag and by the time you found it, the caller had hung up? Never miss a phone call again by hanging your mobile phone from your lanyard.

Travelling groups of people such as sports teams and school bands will find that the group leader’s job is made so much easier when group members are wearing ID cards and also easily identified printed lanyards. Using a bold coloured lanyard will ensure that members can be spotted in a crowd and will avoid situations where someone gets lost.

Printed or Embroidered Lanyards - What's the Difference?

A lanyard is a fantastic type of personal branding. Whether you use your lanyard as a form of identification or exclusively as a marketing choice, you are going to extract a major return on your investment.

But lanyards come in all shapes and sizes. One of the significant decisions you will have to make is whether you want to invest in a printed lanyard or an embroidered lanyard. The differences are substantial, so read on to find out more about both types.

Printed Lanyards

A printed lanyard involves taking some kind of graphic submitted by you and printing it onto the lanyard itself. It works through using a sublimation process. Essentially, the design is fused into the material. There are no colour limitations involved, so you can choose from over a million shades.

Printed lanyards will not run, and they are easy to clean if this is required. Since modern printers are so advanced, it is easy to print small text.

This is the best option for those who want lanyards in the fastest possible time or for those that want photographic realism.



Embroidered Lanyards

Embroidered lanyards work slightly differently. Using a base of twill, the design is sewn into the fabric with thread. You will find this gives the embroidered lanyard a slight ‘raised’ effect. The texture will feel different when you run your finger across it.

Extremely small text and minute details are harder to insert with embroidered lanyards, so elaborate designs may not be ideal for this option.

The Difference in Cost

Embroidered lanyards will always cost more than printed lanyards because of the workmanship involved. The machinery used to produce them is more advanced and the materials more costly. A printed lanyard can be done through using a modern colour printer and little else.

Generally, the difference in cost is not significant. If you order in bulk, you can drive the cost of embroidered lanyards down.

Ordering small numbers will make embroidered lanyards significantly more expensive than their printed counterparts.

The Quality Issue

It is no secret that embroidered lanyards do come with a more ‘prestige’ look. This is simply because of the texture and the ‘raising’ effect. In a business environment, customers and other companies may well prefer an embroidered lanyard because it shows you invested more in your marketing tools.

Will it be a deal breaker? Probably not, but it does not hurt to have this little advantage on your side.

Design and Details

If you want a simple design, you can use either option without any problems. On the other hand, if you want fading effects and other uncommon shades you may well be out of luck. Embroidered lanyards do not support this.

Printed lanyards, on the other hand, can print out anything you can see. As long as you can look at the design on a computer screen, you can place it on a lanyard.

This gives you far more versatility and the chance to really experiment with your designs.

Time Taken

Turnaround time is important. If you are moments away from a networking event and you have left lanyards to the last minute, a printed option is by far the superior choice. It can take less than 24 hours for you to receive an order of printed lanyards. On the other hand, embroidered ones could well take an extra day or two to produce.

It may not sound like much, but if you are rushing to get everything ready, then this can prove crucial.

So What’s the Best Option?

The best option depends on your situation. If you want to create something that resembles a graphical firework, the printed option is best for you. Alternatively, if adding an extra dimension through texture sounds attractive, embroidered is the superior option.

The cost difference is negligible, so you should not let that be the decision maker. The printed option does have a time advantage, so if you need a fast turnaround, the choice is clear.

Test out both options to see what goes down best with staff members and customers. Every company will have different preferences.

9 Unusual Ways to Promote Your Business

Promoting your business is about staying ahead of the curve, and your competitors. Sometimes you have to think outside of the box to get that crucial advantage.

Successful promotion is about creating a personal brand that resonates with people. Rarely does a company instantly resonate with people simply because of what it does and what it stands for.



In light of this, we are going to take a look at nine ingenious ways of promoting your business.

1. Get a Celebrity Endorsement


Okay, this is not exactly the easiest of prospects. Forget trying to get Kayne West or Barak Obama to promote your company. Think about someone who is a minor celebrity. Unless you are marketing something utterly reprehensible, celebrities will generally endorse anything when the price is right.

You may consider a local celebrity or a minor celebrity. It is an excellent way to get people talking, especially when combined with a social media campaign.

2. Print Some Lanyards

Lanyards can be issued to both staff members and customers. Whether these are presented at a convention or simply at the company’s headquarters, they offer the chance to add a company logo, slogan, or colour scheme. It is all part of personal branding.

Give them to someone as a security measure, wrap them around a USB stick, or throw them on a pouch. It is entirely up to you how you incorporate them into your business.

The main advantages of lanyards are they are cost-effective, versatile, and practical.

3. Promotional Sweatbands (and a sporting event)


Companies have been running sports days for decades. They don’t do it because they enjoy sports. They do it because it is such an effective marketing tool. In a world where so many people automatically switch off whenever they hear about promotional material, the sports day remains one of the most effective ways of promoting a brand covertly.

Issue promotional sweatbands with your company colours and name on it. This is a practical tool for the participants, and it is subtly marketing your brand at the same time.

4. Slap Bracelets

Slap bracelets are different from regular bracelets in that they offer more promotional space. In other words, they offer more of a chance to promote yourself. They are the hottest promotional product on the market right now.

A slap bracelet does not work in any other way from any other wearable piece of company merchandise. Choose the colour for the bracelet and what you want on it. It’s that simple.

5. Use a Field

Around the world, there are hundreds of thousands of miles of motorway. Along these roadways, you will find empty fields with owners wishing they could make some extra money from them. One option is to pay the owner a small fee to place something in their field.

Some of the options could include:

• a billboard
• a neon sign
• strange objects that grab people’s attention. Brand them with your company logo.

Remember to check the local laws before you do this. Every country, and in some cases every region, will have a different stance on this.

It’s cheaper than you think to do this!

6. Partner with a Business

You do not have to go it alone. There is a reason companies endorse other companies in other industries. The customers in one niche may also be interested in another niche.

How you work with a partner company is entirely up to you and will depend on the contract you draw up with them.

Look online for a company of similar stature that might be interested in working with you.

7. Brand Your Electronics


Brand every piece of company technology with a holder or cover of some kind. Whether it is a laptop cover or a mobile phone holder, every piece of technology is a chance to brand your company.

Every time one of your staff members enters a meeting, it’s immediately clear who they work for. Subtle pieces of branding like this are ideal for promoting your company.

8. A Competition

A competition is an easy way of grabbing new customers without spending a lot of money. Make sure you offer something related to the company, though. Offering an iPad or a laptop will just attract people who are not really interested in what you have to offer.

9. Invest in Cardholders

Security is essential every time someone enters your building. You may issue identity cards to visitors or swipe cards to staff members to open the offices. Do not throw the card in any old cardholder. Brand your cardholder with the company colours and a logo.

Conclusion

These unusual ways to promote your company are all about personal branding. Brand everything you can and you are repeating the same information to all prospective customers you come across. It’s all about message accumulation. The more times you say something, the more likely the message is to get through.
