Resources for Visitor Badge

The use of a visitor badge gives your employees the chance to address visitors and customers by name more easily, making them feel more welcome. They also provide added security in schools, hospitals and government facilities. In these locations, its important to have visitors check in and obtain a visitor badge, identifying them as approved to be in the building.

There are several styles of visitor name tags available. Each style has its advantages, depending on your business’ needs. Consider visitor badge pricing and costs and how your company will use them before making a decision on which style to go with. You have the following options available to you:

1. Print a visitor badge for your guests on your own.

2. Stick with a basic, yet effective, adhesive visitor badge.

3. Use an expiring visitor badge in facilities where security is an issue.

Design a visitor badge and print it yourself

Many businesses don't see a lot of visitors, but an event may come up where name tags are a pretty good idea, such as an open house at your day care or a luncheon in honor of your loyal customers. In this case, you may want to stick to a small budget and produce a temporary visitor badge on your own for attendees.

Make things easier with an adhesive visitor badge

Keep it simple with adhesive visitor name tags. These are great for large events such as an open house or a conference where those invited can bring an extra guest. Simply lay the visitor badges out for people to write their own name on as they arrive and check in. They're quick, simple and cost effective.

Create added security with an expiring visitor badge

A visitor badge with an expiration feature, such as strips that appear eight hours after issuing (and activating) the visitor badge, is great for added security. Due to the fact that expiring visitor name tags can only work for a few hours, visitors can't return the next day without checking in again. These are best suited to schools, hospitals, government facilities and other locations that may need added security precautions.
