This is great especially to those in the printing business or in the arts & crafts department. I wonder if these are being sold in the Philippines. I only know of companies or business doing this for a price but to do it by yourself, not a single one.

I guess to do it by yourself you need to invest in one machine. Maybe you can have a start up by purchasing from Liberty. i’m not sure if they send it to Ph but you need to come to Malaysia to get it. =) Since this machine is user friendly and not too costly. And they give free templates. You can contact the company for more information.

In the age of customization, this is really great business. It really can sell in schools and companies. Buttons can be given away as corporate gifts. It’s also a way of showcasing personality and advocacies 🙂

Just what I need! I was literally just thinking about using my blog logo to badges and like this and like give it away to friends and acquaintances then all of a sudden I’d see this post of yours. I wonder if I can afford a machine like that. Sad that the company is in Malaysia. I might have to look for a local counterpart. This is such a swell idea for gifts especially this holiday season.

For anyone in the business of gifts and printing, this is another service they could offer. Button badges are great for events. Contrary to popular belief, it is not only for election campaigns. Corporate activities, team events, they could use this.
Also, I think it could be good sideline or part-time business with people who are connected to organizers of events.

What a great idea. How cool that you can print whatever you like on these! I think it would be a great idea for a kids birthday party! You could print one for each guest and they could take home as a reminder.

I used to be obsessed with badges when I was younger so I can see how they can be used to market to a very young audience but I’m not so sure about adults. I see Citi bank has previously had some badges printed but I personally would never wear one of those and I imagine the only people that would are actual employees of Citi. They are cute idea anyhow and I imagine this would make a fun Christmas present 🙂
