How I Got My First Lanyard
Let me tell you how I received my first lanyard. Working in retail, I had a million keys to keep track of. The most important ones were used to open the cash registers during a shift change. Each of our four registers had a different key plus the manager key that had to be used at the same time. We left the main key in the registers, and it was my responsibility to have the manager key on me at all times for when an associate needed to open their drawer.
There was a backup key in the office the managers shared in case we forgot to bring our key. I was no different than anyone else and often made use of this backup key when I left mine at home. During a shift change on a busy day I dug my key out of my pocket so I could open the drawer of an associate. Fumbling, I dropped it into a small crack where the counters met. After trying in vain to get it out, I went for the backup key. It wasn’t there, someone must have accidentally taken it home with them. (more…)

Custom Patches
My husband and I own a group of cabins in the mountains that we rent as vacation accommodation. It’s kind of like a hotel since we have a reception desk and a gift shop, but each cabin is independent and private on the grounds and they really are a great romantic or family getaway. Our place is close to ski resorts and year-round mountain activities, as well as a nearby tourist town with great little shops and restaurants.
A couple of years ago we decided that we wanted to try to market our cabins as a destination in and of themselves, so we needed to come up with some kind of branding that would set us apart from other lodgings in the area. We had a great name with a cute logo, so we figured that would definitely help. From there, we decided to get some merchandise with our name and logo and sell it in the gift shop. We thought that maybe later on we could see if other gift shops in town would want to sell our items as well, so we tried to think of typical tourist merchandise that people would like. We came up with magnets, fleece sweatshirts, hats and custom patches. (more…)
