Purchasing Resources for Promotional Lanyards

Promotional Lanyards

Give your employees and customers useful customized lanyards
By Shalleen Mayes If you're looking for a functional giveaway for your next trade show, consider custom lanyards. If you're scratching your head for a good way to identify attendees at a conference, promotional lanyards for name badges can be a wonderful tool. Lanyards appeal to all ages, and are especially useful for the younger generation of keyholders.
 

You can find so many different uses for custom lanyards. When you need a way to identify visitors to your business, ID lanyards can help you keep your work environment secure. And you may get better nametag compliance from employees if you give them cool ID lanyards that they won't lose as easily.

Most lanyards are made from fabric or webbed material. Many come with a standard O-ring connector to attach an ID badge or keys, but other connector options are available. You can find custom lanyards in a rainbow of color options as well as custom colors or woven-in designs.

 When ordering promo lanyards, look for:

1. Different lengths and widths.
2. End connector options including badge retractors, clips or keyrings.
3. Screen printing or woven-in options for personalized lanyards with your company information.
4. Value-priced blank or novelty lanyards.

Find promotional lanyards in different widths and lengths

You can find customized lanyards in a variety of widths, from very skinny rope to as wide as 1 inch to really make your logo stand out. Consider what your business logo will look like when shopping for promo lanyards.
Try: Lanyard Supply carries super-large special lanyards in 1 inch widths with j-hook, badge clip or keyring options. These custom lanyards are available in a 36 inch standard length, but you can purchase 32, 42 or 48 inch lengths. Art Promos carries 3/4 inch personalized lanyards in black, blue, red or white with screen printing. Order your company logo to be screen-printed on these custom lanyards.

Spend your advertising dollars on a custom lanyard they'll use again and again

When you're looking at your options for promotional products, consider customized lanyards for your business.

Save on lanyards by ordering blank or preprinted options

When you need a low-cost way to give your employees or conference attendees a place to hold an ID badge, why not consider blank or preprinted lanyards for less? Blank lanyards are available in many colorful options, and you can choose from a variety of cheap lanyards with preprinted sayings, including "Visitor," "Security" or "Event Staff." You can buy preprinted lanyards individually, which will help out if you only need a few.
Try: Namifiers sells custom lanyards in a variety of styles, but look for their preprinted stock of lanyards for visitors, VIPs or volunteers. It's a low-cost option, and you can buy these lanyards separately. US Imprints' clear loop laminate lanyard is a great option when you just need inexpensive badgeholders. These lanyards can be ordered blank or customized with your business name. 

• Make sure to factor in any per-color set-up fees and shipping costs when pricing promotional lanyards.
• Be sure to see a proof of your custom lanyard order before you sign off on the print job.
