What You Should Know Before Purchasing Custom Awards

 

When you're in the market for custom awards, there are some important questions to be considered before making a final decision. From the type of award to the engraving on it and more. Let's take a look at some key questions you should ask when purchasing your next custom business awards from Award Crafters.

What Type of Award Should I Buy?

The types of awards available vary from traditional cup trophies and plaques to more modern, artistic awards in acrylics and crystals. It's important to consider your budget and what type of award will best fit your needs. For example, if you plan on giving out multiple awards, traditional trophies may be more cost-effective than options like acrylics or crystal awards. On the other hand, if you're looking for something special or luxurious, then glass or crystal awards may be better suited.

Will I Need to Have the Awards Engraved?

Engraving is one of the most important aspects of custom awards because it adds that extra personal touch that makes them truly unique. When purchasing custom awards from Award Crafters, you have the option to have your award engraved with anything from names and dates to logos and messages. Depending on how intricate or detailed the engraving is, it may add additional cost to your order so make sure to factor this into your budget before making a purchase decision.

How Much Lead Time Will I Need to Provide?

Finally, it's important to give yourself enough lead time so that you don't end up having to rush through the process right before an event or presentation ceremony. Most manufacturers require between 4-6 weeks lead time, but this can vary depending on the size of your order and other factors like engraving complexities or shipping times. Be sure to discuss lead times with Award Crafters when placing your order so there won't be any surprises down the line!

Custom awards are a great way to recognize individuals or teams for their hard work and dedication. But it’s important to consider some key points about what type of award is best for your needs as well as whether engraving is necessary and how much lead time is needed for ordering.
