Making the Most of Rubber Stamps

Use rubber stamps to make your office more efficient

By Emily Lugg
What good are rubber stamps if you aren't using them to their fullest potential? There are many daily office tasks that rubber stamps can make faster and more efficient. A few key business stamps can make a world of difference in your every day routine at the office. You can purchase custom rubber stamps so you have exactly the rubber stamp sets that your office requires.

Implement these strategies while making the most of rubber stamps:

1. Use rubber stamps to organize daily files.

2. Use address stamps to help with mailings, big or small.

3. Label folders and important documents using rubber stamps.

 

Organize incoming and outgoing documents with specific ink stamps

If you don't have a great organization system for all of the paperwork that comes in and out of your office, now is the time to start. You can buy personalized ink stamps to label your documents just the way you want them. Or maybe just having the date stamped on each document would suffice. You can purchase dating stamps that allow you to change the date each day and mark incoming files with the current date.
Try: Complete Rubber Stamps offers daters that you can customize with your company's name, which may be helpful for outgoing paperwork. For other organizational purposes, The Corporate Connection has a numberer that can number your documents up to eight digits at a time.

Save time with address stamps

Address stamps are much less wasteful and cost less then address labels. You can have address stamps made in many different sizes to accommodate various packages and envelopes. You can also have custom ink stampers made to include other information along with your company address.
Try: You can have up to eight lines of text for your address stamps with StampXpress. Rubber Stamps Unlimited carries self-inking stamps and the traditional wood-handle address stamp.

Have rubber stamps made with specific instructions and labels

In a bustling office, files are going every which way. Rather then taking the time to hand write what a person needs to do with each file, have a custom ink stamp made for each common action that takes place in your office. Whether it says rush, paid or please sign, your staff will be able to quickly and efficiently mark files with the appropriate action.
Try: Idealstampshop.com has several sayings already made that will likely apply to your every day business. Xstampersuperstore.com also has many stock sayings for you to order and can also customize stamps for you to meet your business stamp needs.

 

  • Consider having your signature made into a rubber stamp if you are constantly required to sign documents. Be sure to keep this stamp in a safe place, however, to ensure noone uses your signature without your authorization.
