Home Depot Excellence Pins

Published on March 20, 2012 in All About Pins. Closed Tags: , , .

The Home Depot of District 189 created an Excellence Award program for its employees.  Knowing what a positive influence, recognition awards are on employees, the company decide to create custom lapel pins for their finest workers.  In addition to increase efficiency and production levels, pins are great for boosting morale.  Employees that feel valued and appreciated are more likely to remain with the same company for a long period of time.

Custom lapel pins are great for a number of different reasons.  As listed above, they are morale boosters and notable tokens of appreciation.  They help businesses increase their success because they make their employees a priority.  This gives workers the confidence that they need to excel in their positions.

Also, lapel pins help enforce company goals and priorities.  They give employees a set of guidelines and tasks to follow.  Once completed, their efforts are rewarded with a unique and personal gift item.  Custom pins allow employees to show off their accomplishment.  By wearing their pins on an article of clothing, a hat or a lanyard, their achievements are visible for the public to see.

When an employee feels appreciated, he or she strives to be the best worker that he or she can be.  This inspires others to do the same.  The happier an employee is with his or her workplace the more likely he or she is to stay with their employer for the long haul.  Long-term employees are valuable assets because they possess the knowledge and skills needed to lead and mentor other employees.

Ways to Make Your Employee Recognition Award Lapel Pins Stand Out

Published on September 30, 2011 in Custom Lapel Pins. Closed Tags: , , , .

When it comes to rewarding your employees for their achievements, few gifts make as positive of an impact as custom lapel pins.  With that being said, businesses and organizations of all sizes use these items to promote goodwill and leadership in the workplace.  Simply put, employees like to know that their hard work is being noticed and appreciated.  Custom lapel pins are great for this reason because they allow employers to show their gratitude in a visual and memorable way.

Pins don’t have to be limited to a company logo or carry a years of service theme.  They can be designed to honor specific achievements.  Some examples of awards we have created in the past include the Unsung Hero, Customer Service Excellence, and Employee of the Month as well as special pins for top sales.

Here are some ways to make the employee recognition award lapel pins that you order stand out:

  • Cut the pins to shape and incorporate simulated gemstones signifying different levels of achievement. Small details like these add to the attractiveness of the pins.
  • Use hanging bars that announce achievement on pins to form a chain.
  • Create lapel pins in different types of metals to honor years of service or levels of achievement. (Black Nickel, Copper, Silver, Gold, Antique Copper, Antique Silver, and Antique Gold are all options that you can elect to use for your designs.)
  • Use glitter colors as a way of making the custom pin stand out even more. Flecks of gold or silver glitter catch people’s eyes.

Creating colorful, unique pins turns them into collector’s items which promote teamwork, creative thinking, and a positive work environment.  These factors are vital to the success and growth of companies of all sizes.

Different Metal Options for Your Years of Service Lapel Pins

Published on July 4, 2011 in All About Pins. Closed Tags: , , , .

Many companies have simple logos that are void of or have very little color.  Die struck lapel pins are a viable option for those customers wanting a more conservative and classy lapel pin for their employees to wear.  Available in a variety of different metal platings, these items are great for years of service award lapel pins.

Gold, Silver, and Copper Lapel Pins Signify Different Lengths of Service

We offer different metal options to our customers so that they can choose the ones that best fit their type of award lapel pins.  This allows the companies that order from us to represent different lengths of service.  Gold, Silver, and Copper can be done in high polished as well as antique metal so that people can easily view how long that employee has been part of the organization.  This technique is similar to how the Olympics awards medals.

Best Buddies Connecticut’s Employee Recognition Lapel Pins

Best Buddies Connecticut was looking for a classic years or service pin but their logo didn’t have a lot of color.  All About Pins created an antiqued die struck pin using the different metals, Antique Gold, Antique Silver, and Antique Copper to represent each year.  This allows those men and women who have worked for Best Buddies to have easily distinguishable 1 Year, 5 Year, and 10 Year pins for everyone to see.

Employee Incentive Programs Benefit Workplaces and Organizations

Employee incentives like these benefit workplaces and organizations.  Not only are workers happier and more productive, they’re absent less.  They are also more likely to give their all to each and every task and they’re more aware about safety issues and avoiding accidents.

Pins can also be used to encourage teamwork and establish a sense of personal pride.  Recipients of the awards can be given the role of Ambassador.  These distinguished workers can mentor others who want to remain with the company for years.

Doubletree by Hilton Years of Service Award Lapel Pins

Published on June 9, 2011 in Custom Lapel Pins. Closed Tags: , , .

Doubletree by Hilton has over 200 hotels with 50,000+ rooms in them in over 200 cities, 15 countries, and five continents.  Started in 1969, the company opened its first location in Scottsdale, Arizona.  Recently, the Doubletree in Bloomington, IL decided to order custom lapel pins with their new logo design as a way to update new Doubletree by Hilton attire and recognize years of service held by dedicated employees.

Dual Purposes, One Pin

The lapel pins served dual purposes.  The first being that it became an addition to the employee’s uniforms.  The second and most important was that it rewarded men and women within the hotel for their commitment to Doubletree by Hilton.  Tangible rewards like these have a proven positive effect on employees.

Employers looking for a way to set themselves apart from the competition can benefit from introducing an employee recognition program to their workforce. Awarding employees dedication and performance has shown positive effects like increased loyalty and satisfaction in their job.

Happy Employees Make More Productive Workplaces

Custom lapel pins boost morale which in return boosts productivity.  Happy employees are less likely to miss work by calling in sick.  They are also more likely to give each task their all because they know their efforts will pay off in the long run.  This helps other workers become exceptional as well because the employees being honored are most likely leaders in their department.

Simulated Gemstones Signify Different Tiers of Achievement

In large workplaces or jobs where there are multiple people receiving recognition for years of service, simulated gemstones are perfect for signifying different tiers of achievement.  From the employee with several decades with a company to the new kid on the block, custom lapel pins make a great impression on everyone that receives one.
