Lapel Pins Spread Support for Charitable Organizations
A pink ribbon lapel pin shows support for breast cancer awareness and research. A red cross immediately brings to mind the charitable organization that provides disaster relief. A black and white panda reminds us to live in peace and harmony with endangered animals. Charitable organizations understand that a strong symbol helps spread their message, and PinPros.com helps them do just that with their custom lapel pins.
PinPros.com works with charities of all sizes. They begin by taking a look around the website to determine what type of product will best fit the charitable organization’s needs. Custom lapel pins are the most popular item PinPros.com sells, and they are available in hard enamel, soft enamel and photodome.
A hard enamel lapel pin is die struck and stamped out of brass metal, and it has a paint fill. The paint is cured at a high temperature, then the lapel pin is polished to smooth out any borders or ridges. Soft enamel lapel pins, which use iron or copper as their base, are a less expensive option. The paint is air dried, creating a dimensional look.
Once the pins have been painted and polished, and the attachment added, they are plated in the standard silver or gold finishes. Other platings are available, as well.
Whether a charity chooses hard or soft enamel, lapel pins come in sizes ranging from ½ inch to two inches. Turnaround time ranges from two to three weeks.
Photodome custom lapel pins are another option for charitable organizations wanting to spread their message. The design is printed on vinyl and then affixed to a flat piece of metal, either silver or gold in color. A clear, acrylic dome – which is guaranteed not to yellow over time – is placed atop the design to protect it.
These printed pins come in a variety of sizes and shapes, and they are popular with those wanting a faster delivery time; PinPros.com can turn these around in two to four days.
Once the material and size have been chosen, charitable organizations next request a free quote for their pins. The response time on quotes is one hour or less. The quote includes all costs associated with the order, including shipping; there will be no surprises, such as hidden fees. The minimum order is 50 pins, and as the quantity goes up, the price per lapel pin goes down. Representatives are also available via live chat, which comes with an additional 5 percent discount.
Since not every charity has just the right design ready for a custom lapel pin, PinPros.com can work with the barest of ideas and drawings to create a design that will work well on a lapel pin. Browsing the website’s photo gallery and artwork gallery also can help an organization hone its design ideas and provide direction for PinPros.com.
In addition to custom lapel pins PinPros.com can put a charitable organization’s symbol on a variety of items, including buttons, patches, key chains, magnets, cuff links and tie clips. A recognizable symbol on a lapel pin, or on any of the additional options, will help charitable organizations build a brand and continue to further their cause.
