Candy: The sure-fire way to sweeten them up in the registration line.

Think about it.  Your attendee got out of bed at 4AM to catch a flight at 6AM.  Had a middle seat and a bad connection.  Missed coffee.  Arrived at the airport to find their luggage is lost in the clouds. 

Got in line for a cab during a rain storm and stood there for 30 minutes.  Arrived at the hotel to find another long line and then discovered that her room won’t be ready until 4:00.  Now they head toward the registration line, slightly wet, without luggage, tired, hungry, and wondering why on earth they ever signed up for your meeting.  When they get up to the front of the line, you can see smoke coming out of the ears, be it tired smoke.

That’s exactly why you want to have some candy in a bowl at the registration counter.  I used M&Ms or suckers but any candy that’s wrapped  individually will work.  That quick burst of sugar will help get their blood levels closer to balance temporarily and help them feel better.

Have you ever noticed it is very difficult to be upset with someone with candy in your mouth?  Check out our website for individually wrapped candies that can be imprinted with your event name or logo on them.  Give us your tips on how to keep registering attendees happy?

From our complete selection of Nametag Organizers to our Rolling Office and On Site File Drawers, we love to keep life orderly. And we resolve to bring you even more innovative organizational products to make your job easier in 2010.

So what steps are you taking to be even more organized and efficient this year?

 No matter how you try to motivate attendees to register early, the nametags always need to be assembled right before registration starts.  There are so many other things to do at this time and now with staff reductions and layoffs the problem is even more interesting.  Who has time?  Let PC/NAMETAG’s Namebadges to Go(TM) come to the rescue.  

 Here’s how it works:

1. Look through the website.  Pick out the products you would like to use.
2. Call 1-800-383-6338.  We’ll help you pick out the products, you can choose any product we sell.  Have us give you an exact quote. 
3. Have your meeting placed on our production schedule. 
4. Email us your spreadsheet of attendee names and info. 
5. Sit back and relax, the nametags are handled.  We will print, separate, sort, stuff and place the tags in OneWay Nametag(TM) Case that will arrive to your meeting site ready for the registration counter.  All that’s left for you to do is place the cases on the counter and lift the lid.
