Raise a flag.
Skip the shouting.
Since 2002, call centers, offices and classrooms have used Desk Flags to ask for help without saying a word or leaving a call.
See how it startedShop flagsPeople have been talking with flags for a few thousand years.
Ships signaled each other with flags long before radio. Railroads waved them. Golf courses still plant one in every hole, and rural mailboxes put up a little red flag that tells the mail carrier "I've got something for you."
Then came the call center. Picture two hundred people in headsets, every one of them mid-conversation. An agent gets a caller they can't help alone. They can't hang up. They can't stand up and shout across the floor. Waving an arm over a cubicle wall gets lost in the crowd.
So they flip up a red flag. A supervisor scanning the room spots it in a second, walks over, and the caller never hears a thing.
We started making desk flags in Middle Tennessee in 2002 and engineered our own Up/Down Flip Clip along the way, so one flag can say two different things. Today they're on cubicles, help desks, classroom tables, restaurant tables and laptops.
Flip it up. Flip it down. That's the whole manual.
The Flip Clip pivots and holds the flag where you leave it, so the position carries the message. The flags mean whatever you want them to mean. Here's how most teams use them:
Built for busy rooms
Call centers
Our biggest customers. Agents ask for help mid-call, supervisors see every request across the floor.
Offices & help desks
Suction-cup and laptop flags stick to monitors, glass and laptops. Show "busy," "open" or "need IT."
Restaurants & classrooms
Guests flag for service, students flag for a question, and nobody has to wave a hand in the air.
