Early summer seems to be the time of year for Optometry Conventions. At least that’s how it appears to us. We receive a lot of requests for custom lapel pins during this time for optometrists. Stylish and professional, they have a number of uses that fit into convention settings well.
Optometrists from around the world travel to warm locations across the country to attend events sponsored by groups like the American Optometric Association (AOA). This gives them the opportunity to meet and mingle with other professionals. In addition to earning continuing education points, learning the latest and greatest techniques, optometrists gain valuable insight on their chosen profession.
Great Giveaway Item At Registration Table
When attendees arrive to the event, they must first check in at the registration table. It is there that they can receive their custom lapel pin for the conference or event. Not only does this item serve as a thank you gift for participating, it also can take the place of ID badges and paper nametags. All registered parties can move about freely from one location to the next by simply wearing their custom lapel pin. This allows event organizers to know who has paid to attend the event and who has not.
Completely Unique and Customizable
Custom lapel pins feature your unique and customizable design. That means your conference pins can have important information about the event included in the design. The pin that we created for the AOA was rich in detail and history. In addition to noting the 25th anniversary of the year that it first participated with Medicare, the stylish items also feature the dates 1986 and 2011 along with the name American Optometric Association. The exact award is listed as well. You can see “Physician Recognition For ODs, Public Law 99-509” around the edge of the pin.
Honoring Keynote Speakers or Workshop Leaders
Special lapel pins can be created for guest speakers or workshop leaders. These tokens of appreciation go a long way in showing support for professional men and women in the field of optometry. Instead of flowers or other types of gifts, organizers can give the speakers and leaders something memorable and appropriate.
Different Plating Options Appeal to Larger Crowd
You can change the plating but keep the same design if you need a certain amount of pins for a special group of attendees. This allows you to have a smaller quantity to hand out to VIPs without incurring the cost of making a whole new set of pins. If you’re looking for a value, this is one of the best ones that we offer.
Custom lapel pins at optometry conventions are appropriate. Eye doctors around the world can remember their achievements and celebrate the different events that they attended throughout the year by wearing one on their lab coats or shirts. This allows them to reflect upon the knowledge that they receive at the conference while letting others know that they are furthering their training.
