1. Name badges helps your customers to easily find and identify your staff

Having customers easily and personally identify your team members by name is a no brainer! It’s the start of building rapport, key to sales.

With the growth of online marketing and e-commerce, often the reason people come to stores is for the personal experience, so start on the right foot and make identification easy!

Your customers also then have a name for their next purchase. For example, “Yes, Bob helped me last time – he was fantastic!” Your customers will have a name if they want to praise your staff’s service and it might even be the reason for coming back to your store for the next purchase…

2. It boosts confidence & provides accountability

A name badge can instill confidence in your team as you are giving them authority to represent your company to customers. It also has some accountability about it – if their name is “out there”, they know they should be on their best behavior!

3. It boosts professionalism

When your team put a name badge on their uniform, they’re automatically more professional! They look professional and they become more accountable.
