Hi, I’m Jane Hamilton from Honeycomb Agency and we’re here at Doltone House Hyde Park for the DXC Insurance Conference.
We’re here personalising branded journals for all the delegate attendees.
“I’m Louise van der Kraan from DXC Technology. I’m the Marketing Lead for Banking Insurance and Healthcare.”
“Anyone can hand out journals but what Jane suggested was to personalise those journals so that way it really picks up the theme of our conference which is engaged. You know it’s a keepsake, it’s something really different that they can take away with them and keep with them.”
This is a perfect example, how we personalise an activation for our clients to engage, attract and connect with their attendees.
“I think one thing that really springs to mind when I think about working with Jane is that there’s no detail too small. You know Jane really goes to that next level to think through every step of an engagement; from our perspective and from the client or the event attendee perspective. She really just brings a holistic view to that experience.”

Questions? We’ve Got Answers
Do you provide onsite embossing services across Australia?
Yes! We operate across metro and regional Australia. We also frequently attend events in New Zealand and have supported clients in South Korea and the United Kingdom.
Do you have a Melbourne-based brand activation team?
Yes we do. Honeycomb Agency has a dedicated Melbourne-based activation team, allowing us to deliver live personalisation activations locally across Victoria.
This means faster setup, local knowledge, and on-the-ground support for Melbourne events, while still being backed by our national team and infrastructure. Our Melbourne-based team regularly delivers embossing activations across Victoria, supporting conferences, trade shows, and premium brand experiences that require a refined, tactile finish.
What space do you require?
We need a standard trestle table with an open back and a chair. We will also require space for a collection point for visitors to collect their item. This can be another trestle table, counter or shelving unit.
What power supply do you require?
Our embossing brand activation needs a 10AMP power source and a power board.
Do you provide staff at the event?
Yes, we provide one embossing technician and a support staff member.
Do my merchandise items come pre-branded
Yes. Merchandise must be branded before the event. Our onsite team personalises the items during the activation.
Can we supply our own merchandise for the activation?
Yes! We’ll need samples ahead of time to test our equipment. If needed, we can also supply merchandise that we know is appealing and works well with our onsite equipment.
What fonts do you use for embossing? Can they be customised?
We use Goudy Old Style Regular uppercase letter blocks in two sizes. Custom fonts are not available.
Can you emboss full names instead of initials?
We recommend initials for a clean, consistent look. This also allows us to personalise more items in a shorter time.
Are different colour options available for monogramming?
Absolutely! We offer foil finishes in gold, silver, and rose gold.
Is there a minimum order quantity for embossed products?
Minimum order quantities can vary depending on the merchandise chosen. We recommend speaking to our sales team, who can guide you through suitable options based on your audience and activation goals.
Can I see a sample of an embossed product before placing a large order?
Of course! Pre-production samples are available, though additional costs may apply. Chat with our sales team for details.
Are there size limitations for embossed logos or designs?
Yes, most items have defined artwork areas. Reach out to us to confirm there will be sufficient space for personalisation.
How many items can you emboss at an event?
In an 8-hour activation, our team can typically emboss around 400 items.
Can you emboss more than 400 items in a day?
Yes! With an extra machine, we can increase output. In some cases, we can exceed 400 items with one machine, depending on the merchandise. Contact us to confirm feasibility.
Can you personalise more than one item per delegate?
Yes, it will however depend on stock availability and activation time. Please check with our sales team.
How many questions can I put on my landing page?
We recommend 3-5 multiple choice or dropdown questions to keep the process quick and engaging.
How do delegates request a personalised gift?
Delegates complete a landing page on an iPad or their mobile via a QR code. Their details are sent to our onsite decorators, who personalise the item. Once ready, an SMS notifies the delegate for collection.
How long does it take for delegates to receive their personalised merchandise?
It depends on how quickly they submit their details, the event programme, and the anticipated number of attendees, but typically between a few minutes and an hour. Contact us to get a more accurate estimate based on your event.
How do delegates know when their personalised item is ready if there’s a backlog?
We send an SMS with the collection details as soon as their item is ready. This leaves the visitor free to continue to explore the event and network.
