Write it Down First with Promotional Pens

Promotional pens can be used in a variety of ways to get people talking about your brands. You can hand them out to your staff, you can hand them out at seminars, conferences and other corporate functions, you can hand them out from your stand at a trade fair, or you can give them to company execs during face-to-face meetings.

Whatever the occasion, these pens are guaranteed to get you the attention of the public provided they are of the right quality and branded in a way that captures the imagination of the recipient.

Choosing Between Different Styles Of Pens

There are several pen styles you can use to capture the hearts of your target audience. The occasion in which you will be giving the pens is what will determine, to a large extent, the type of pen to use.

If you’ve invited to a high-ranking representative of a corporate client to a tete-a-tete, you cannot afford to hand him or her, a cheap, plastic biro pen with enough colours to form a rainbow. That would be the equivalent of subjecting your reputation to a public execution. You should instead look for something classy, something gleaming with chrome or stainless steel. Something with a sleek dash of wood to match their mahogany desk. Something... you get what we’re driving at.

Remember, shoring up your reputation in the eyes of such important clients is just as critical to the survival and growth of your company as adverts to the general public.

However, if your target is to get out as many branded pens as possible during an outdoor promotional campaign, lower-cost pens are very much in order.

When you want to draw as much traffic to your stall in a trade show, these branded pens, preferably in bright, attractive colours are just what the doctor ordered. The colours are particularly a masterstroke when your intended target comprises of school-going children not older than sixteen.

We can offer you the widest possible range of colours so everyone can get a branded pen in their favourite shade. And did you know those pens can lead to actual sales long after the day of the promotion? All you need to do is be careful to put your contact info on the pens. Some people like to take their time and possibly make consultations before placing an order, so don’t be discouraged if they take your freebies and don’t buy your products there and then.
