Great for events, meetups, and conferences.

1. Prepare Data

• First Name
• Last Name
• Company
• Role (Speaker, Attendee, VIP)

2. Template

Standard Insert sizes: 3" x 4" or 2.25" x 3.5".

• Check Avery 5390 or 5392.

3. Design Tips

• Readability is King: The First Name should be legible from 6 feet away. Use a font size of 24pt-30pt.
• Role Coding:
  • Use a shape (rectangle) at the bottom with a background color.
  • You can manually sort your Excel file by Role to print "VIPs" in one batch on red paper, and "Attendees" on white, or create separate designs.
• Conversation Starters: Add a field like Industry or Interests to spark chat.
