Deskmate Plus

24 signs to discourage (or invite) distractions!

Deskmate Plus is the newest version of our popular Deskmate series with a slightly larger format and updated graphics and signs. Still compact at 5” x 7”, Deskmate Plus is more than 50% larger than our classic Deskmate Product (Code #CLTDDM), so you can be sure that everyone will "get the message"!

The Deskmate Plus is the perfect gift for yourself, your team or your colleagues.

We know how you feel when you're trying your hardest to get stuff done and people keep coming to visit, ask a question, request help, tell you a story, share an experience, or just chat. You want to be nice, but you also need to do your work! Researchers at the University of California, Irvine, found that the typical office worker is interrupted or switches tasks, on average, every 3 minutes. And it can take over 23 minutes just to get back to where they left off.

Whether you're in training, participating in a webinar, or just trying to get work done, you want to be nice, but you also need to focus on the task at hand.

With so many people working from home, use these signs to let the rest of your household know when you are not available - or when you are available!

We've created these 24 signs to help you say what needs to be said, in a lighthearted tone. The 24 playful yet direct DeskMate Plus signs allow you to tell people to GO AWAY (Or C'MON IN!)… nicely. Signs are printed on both sides, so they're visible from the front and the back. And, as a special feature, the back of the book can be written on with a dry-erase marker (Product Code #DEMNN not included), allowing you to leave a note about when you expect to return!
