Say "Hello"

A group  of people have gathered together for the first time. They don’t know each other
well, if at all. What’s missing from this picture? Using name tags or name
badges can make it easier for people who are not familiar with each other to
interact and open up. It’s a simple way to make meetings a little friendlier,
and helps encourage people to get to know each other.

Avery  Clip Style Name Badges with  Garment Friendly™ Clips attach easily to lapels, pockets and belts and won’t
  damage fabrics. You'll find them in standard business card size or larger 3"x 4"
  convention size, if you'd like more room to include additional information.
  Print names in large, bold type so they’re easy to read, and include a company
  logo if you wish. You may want to include additional information in smaller
  type beneath the name, such as the person’s company, job title or location to
  help spark conversation. It’s easy to design and print your own custom-printed
  name badges for any meeting or event with free Avery Templates.


 Other ways to help break the ice:

- Arrange seating assignments to encourage people to interact with others they may not work with often.
  Use Avery Tent Cards to  designate seating assignments.

- At large meetings, help new people get  a warm welcome. Place red Avery  color-coding dots on
  name badges to identify new people. Encourage others to look for the red dots
  and introduce themselves.

Say “hello” to Avery Name Badges—and say goodbye to awkward social encounters.  Thanks to our friends at Avery for sharing their meeting strategies.
