Being obsessed with social media, I decided to re-think the way that we use name tags at events. When I was about to host the social media lounge at BizBash, I created the name tags below that helped attendees interact on social media. The stickers were easily affixed to the plastic name tags given out at the expo and added the sm touch. They were quite the hit and we’ve used them at several events since then. You can see below a few tweets sent at a media event I attended last week. What do you think about them? Should they include more info? I would LOVE to hear your feedback!
