Mon, 13 Jun 2011 12:14:00 -0700 Why You Should Consider School Award Pins For Your Next Student Recognition Program? http://siennapacific.posterous.com/why-you-should-consider-school-award-pins-for http://siennapacific.posterous.com/why-you-should-consider-school-award-pins-for

Schools and parents are usually looking for ways to keep students motivated to perform well at school. Nowadays, students recognition program are very popular and they vary from cash prizes, to gifts and diplomas.

However, programs that aim to motivate students by encouraging personal pride for their achievements instead of linking money or gifts to their efforts have proven to attain better results.

School award pins can work great for this purpose. It will depend on the specific school goals how they implement the program, for example, schools can have a student of the month or reward the best students at the end of each semester.

Award pins can be given not only to reward good grades, but also to recognize students who have improved the most or the ones who are more helpful with their peers, etc. Options are endless!

"Award pins are a simple way to let students show off their achievements. Giving awards pins at a school assembly (preferably one where parents are encouraged to attend) is a simple way to tell your students that you are proud of their efforts. Students can then wear their award pins as a way to let others know how much they have achieved (a powerful motivator for kids). Sometimes, the best way to encourage your students doesn't have to be expensive or time-consuming, it just has to be a small token that shows them you are proud of all they have done." - Ezine Articles -

Mon, 27 Dec 2010 12:08:00 -0800 Political Pins For a Successful Political Campaign http://siennapacific.posterous.com/political-pins-for-a-successful-political-cam http://siennapacific.posterous.com/political-pins-for-a-successful-political-cam

As we have been discussing in previous posts, Lapel Pins can serve several causes or objectives.

A business can do Company Pins to advertise its brand or Award Pins to reward workers for a special achievement or for a job well done.

Today we would like to talk about Political Pins because in the scope of politics they can help to get more popularity.

Whether the pins are for local or national elections they can be designed to be elegant and attention getting.

Custom Lapel Pins allow you to include your logo and other common elements such as county seal, stars, Eagle, State and or U.S. Flags along with other details needed to get your message out.

Political Lapel Pins are used for Staff Members and Poll Workers who have a high public profile with the media and the general public. The look of the Political lapel pin is more sophisticated than using the large campaign buttons.

Check out this article that sum up some important steps you may need to follow in order to create successful political pins. Visit Using Lapel Pins to Drive a Profitable Political Campaign.

A perfect example is The San Juan Capistrano Police Service's Associated Senior Action Program, check out this article to learn why.

San Juan Capistrano Police Services' Associated Senior Action Program celebrated its 18th anniversary by honoring volunteers who have donated thousands of hours to duties such as property checks, parking enforcement and special events.
At ASAP's appreciation luncheon Thursday at El Adobe restaurant, volunteers received flag lapel pins as well as uniform pins inscribed with their total hours served. - The OC Register -

Many companies or organizations are looking for ways to show their appreciation to their employees, members or volunteers. They're looking for a way not only to say thank you but also to motivate them to continue with the hard work.

Custom Lapel Pins are a great option. They're affordable and can be customized as much as you want according to your specific need or specifications.

One of the greatest satisfactions of our life is to have our efforts and dedication acknowledged. Reward those who have beaten obstacles to achieve their goals and show them your recognition with custom lapel pins.
