The Name Tag is the Employee


WEARING NOTHING BUT A NAME TAG

The other day I was in a pet store trying to find some special frozen food for my fish. The store was busy and I had trouble finding any employees to help me.
I finally found someone wearing a name tag and walked right up to him and asked him if he had this particular fish food. He led me to the freezer and found the product I needed. After thanking him, he told me that he didn't actually work there. He was just a guy who left his name tag on. He was not dressed anything like the employees of the store, he was simply wearing a name tag and that is all I saw. Just because he wore a name tag, he was instantly approachable.

When I thought about it later, I realized that it would be a great way to make contacts during sales calls. With a noticeable name tag, one can simply walk around and let people come and talk to you.

Your staff can be this approachable! Get them some really great name tags from INSIGNO
