Label examples by kind of shop
Shops label things differently. Four examples with the reasoning behind the layout.
The names, prices and numbers are made up. The button on each example opens the tool with it filled in, and you replace the words with yours.
Shelf and price labels for a grocery shop
A grocery shelf needs large prices that a customer can read from a step away. The shelf label puts the price in the biggest type, with the item name above it.
What to write. Name the item with its pack size, and make the price the largest thing. Replace the label the day the price changes.
A mistake to avoid. Old labels left on the shelf after a price change. They lead to arguments at the counter.

Price tags and barcodes for a clothing shop
A clothing shop sells the same design in several sizes, so the code on the tag should carry the size. Codes such as KRT0001M let you scan the right row at the counter.
What to write. Build codes from a short style number plus the size, and print the size on the tag as well so customers see it.
A mistake to avoid. Using the product name as the code. Names change and repeat; a short code stays the same.

Labels for a stationery and gift shop
Stationery has many small items. A tag with the price and a barcode lets you scan at the counter and keep a count of what is selling.
What to write. Use your own number series for items that do not carry a manufacturer barcode, and keep a list of which number is which item.
A mistake to avoid. Making your own numbers that look like the ones on branded products. Use a series you can tell apart.

Small tags for artificial jewellery
Jewellery tags must be tiny. The 65-label sheet gives a tag of about 3 cm, large enough for a name, a price and a short code.
What to write. Keep the name short, put the price large and use a code of four to six characters.
A mistake to avoid. Tags so large that they hide the item. Try the smallest sheet.
