Do you have an open day at your University or maybe an orientation day at work? Lanyards can help in organising this with the use of ID card holders to make sure you have everyone present and only authorised people access the areas you want. When Universities have open days, a great way to make sure the potential student remembers their visit is through the use of printed lanyards. If you offer them as something they can keep after the day, then it will enhance the chances of them picking your school over someone else’s. You may not believe it, but promotional lanyards are hotly collected amongst the younger crowd, especially if they have cool attachments like a mobile phone holder or USB connector.
For businesses in a corporate environment, lanyards can be handy to give to visitors to make sure you have identified them correctly. Last thing you want is people hopping on the back of an orientation who shouldn’t be there. You can always enhance it by adding an ID card holder to the end with either an image of the person, or at least the words VISITOR printed on the card to that security staff know the staus of that particular person
