Planning Your Autumn Festivals

We’ve said it before, and we’re happy to say it again: ribbons are the perfect thing to help you celebrate any event. And that still goes for all of your autumn festivals! From ribbon rolls to badge ribbons, we have something to meet your every need.

Starting your autumn festivals off right can take a lot of work, but with the proper planning, ribbons can make it easier. From festive colors and messages to how you use these wonderful tools, we guarantee that ribbons will make your festival better.

Ribbon Rolls for Autumn Festivals

Ribbon rolls are one of the best tools you can have for your Autumn festivals.

Choosing the right color is the easiest part! Whether it’s brown, orange or yellow (or any other color your event desires), we have the colors to get you going on the right path. Add messages that support different booths at your festival or add messages that go with packaging for goodie bags that you hand out to festival goers.

Ribbon rolls are also perfect for decorating! Give them to your vendors, volunteers and staff to decorate their spaces and make your event more festive. These ribbons will truly go the distance for your every need during your Autumn festivals.

PRO TIP: Create a custom photo booth backdrop with lengths of ribbon rolls tied into a banner that feature the date and theme of your festival.

Badge Ribbons for Autumn Festivals

Badge ribbons with messaging for your Autumn Festivals.

Invite festival goers to participate in your event by providing them with colorful badge ribbons with messages about what is happening during the festival. From costume contests to making sure that your volunteers are highly visible, badge ribbons are one of the best tools that you can use during your Autumn festival. Even match your colors to your booths or other vendor spaces!

One of the best badge ribbons is our full color version. These ribbons make it so that you can use bright colors as well as a bleed. This means that you can add nearly any messaging and graphics that you need to make your event special. Choose either vertical or horizontal ribbons to best fit your ribbon needs.

PRO TIP: Add badge ribbons to badge holders or name tags to help identify your staff and other volunteers at your event.

Custom Top Ribbons for Autumn Festivals

One of the best features of these custom top ribbons is that you can either attach one to a name tag or give one with a record card that is personalized for any award. No matter what you choose to use custom top ribbons for, we guarantee staff and everyone who attends your Autumn festivals will remember your fun event because you have given them such a treasure to take home.

PRO TIP: If you have chosen to have contests at your festival, personalize custom top ribbons for each winner. Add the date and theme of your festival with the award placement for a unique trophy.

Personalized Ribbons for any Event

No matter how you choose to use any of these custom ribbons, remember to think outside of the box! Ribbon rolls don’t just have to be tied around a centerpiece to be useful. Badge ribbons don’t just have to be added to name tags and used for identification. Custom top ribbons aren’t just for awards. We’re curious to see how your outside of the box thinking goes. So, comment below and let us know how you used your ribbons!

Employee Engagement & Summer Parties

Help your employees this summer work on their relationships with their coworkers, supervisors and other staff. Keeping everyone at your business engaged with each other and your customers and clients can sometimes be a struggle. But, by working on your employee engagement this summer, you will see your business improve.

Employee Engagement: DEFINED

The level of employee engagement in your workplace has a lot to do with how your employees relate to one another. Set up opportunities for them to connect on things outside of work and foster personal relationships. You don’t have to go far or break the bank to do so — plan an on-site happy hour, game night or potluck dinner. Make sure to provide some variety in your events to promote inclusivity.
Employee engagement is defined as the degree to which employees are motivated by, passionate about and invested in the work they do. Engagement also indicates the individual’s commitment to the company and their emotional connection to the people they work with.
Workforce engagement is often misunderstood to be synonymous with job satisfaction. Though the two concepts are related, employee engagement is vastly more complicated as it is influenced by a variety of factors including location, culture and individual characteristics. These factors are variable and prone to fluctuate over time, which is why measuring employee engagement is crucial to staying up to date with your staff’s needs.

Ribbon Tools for Employee Engagement

Badge ribbons are the perfect tool to get your employees engaged, especially during summer events. With many different colors to choose from, and you can add any text and small graphics, these ribbons are incredibly versatile. Use them to inform your employees about your next event. Or, use them for event games, fun summer-themed titles and so much more.

No matter what your event is, you can make these ribbons work for you! Whether it’s an employee-only event or a summer get-together that your business is sponsoring, badge ribbons can do most of the work for you. Include messages of dates, times and locations for each of your events. Use them to help employees and customers stay engaged with your business.

You can also use custom top ribbons as awards, reminders and souvenirs at your next company summer event. These ribbons are just as versatile as badge ribbons but a bit fancier. Sometimes the best way to keep your employees continually engaged is a simple reminder of the fun they can have with your company. Summer events are the perfect reminder. So, create unique yet engaging ribbons to give to your event guests to remind them of how much fun they had celebrating.

Other Badge Ribbon Tips

Add fun, creative titles to engage employees during any event.
Create fun sayings to let event guests know how to play party games.
Give badge ribbons as awards or positive reminders about the fun everyone had.
Use bright colors and fun graphics to express your business mantra.

No matter what you decide to do for your summer business fun, don’t forget the ribbons!

3 Ways to Find Business Success with Ribbons

Starting a business is hard work, and having business success requires sacrifices. But, many business owners don’t talk about what you need to keep that success going. This journey to greatness starts with you, the business owner.

While ribbons may not be the answer to every question along the way to success, they will play a key role in many ways. So, make sure to keep these ribbons on hand at all times so they are available to help you when you need them.

Custom ribbons will help in any business success by adding logos and other key company information.

1) Product Packaging for Business Success

Branded ribbons are a great way to help customers trust your business. Adding a company logo and slogan to ribbon rolls or badge ribbons is a great way to help others recognize your brand. Now that you have these ribbons, you can add them to name tags, products in your store and goody bags that are handed out at conventions and other events.

All other custom ribbons are also here to help your business succeed. No matter your choice, make sure your color, imprint and logo are consistent with your established brand. By adding these ribbons to things that will get passed around (think promotional products or samples), word of mouth advertising will start to work in your favor. Once this happens, potential clients and customers will start recognizing your brand.

2) Customer Retention

A popular way of promoting your brand is to give away promotional products and gifts. This can help you to build your brand recognition and increase sales. Don’t limit yourself on the types of gifts you give away. It can be something as simple as a homemade treat to an actual product sample. Just remember to brand it with your logo, company slogan or something that makes it truly yours. Use ribbon rolls with your slogan to wrap around boxes or gift bags.

Remember that visibility is key to customer retention. By using custom ribbons around your store or office, you are sure to find business success. Customers and clients will start to recognize your brand, and when they need what you offer, you will be at the top of their mind.

3) Employee Appreciation

A happy employee is a helpful one. So, keep your crew happy and you’ll get even more word of mouth advertising. And, by giving to your employees (whether it’s gifts or money), you will get something back.

When you give a gift to your employees, wrap it with care and a little bit of branded ribbon. Use badge ribbons with custom statements declaring your appreciation for a job well done. Or, use ribbon rolls with your logo and the text “Thank You” to show your employees just how much you care.

Ribbons Lead to Business Success

From color to content, ribbons are a versatile tool that will help anyone with branding their business. However, by customizing badge ribbons to ribbon rolls, you’re giving your brand greater strength. From store sales to getting-to-know-you corporate retreats, ribbons are a perfect way to include those around you that may not know everything they should about your company.

Most of our personalized ribbons can be printed with a company logo and each ribbon has its own value. Ribbon rolls are great for corporate gifting and event decoration. Use badge ribbons only on badge holders and name tags, but also for awards, bookmarks and other recognition pieces. Rosette ribbons are commonly used as awards and also to highlight accomplishments in an office or business setting.

Find business success with imprinted, personalized ribbons. Add a logo and company name for brand recognition. And, most importantly, use each ribbon type in a variety of ways! Learn even more by reading Business Success and Taking Small Steps.
