Why Promotional Pens Are the Best Marketing Tool

Pens are a vital part of any company’s promotional advertising. Not only do special pens portray a more professional image, you can also personalise them with company information to promote your products and services. Personalised pens can be handed out to clients to encourage company awareness and brand association. The intent would be that daily use would keep your name in front of your client. This makes them remember the company and services provided without the loud, obvious marketing campaigns. Whether you are a small business or a million dollar company pens are essential to promote your company.

There are so many promotional pens to choose from that your company will find exactly what you need! Whether you personalise your pens with your company name and logo, or add your phone number and website address, it will be unique to your company.

As clients use your personalised pens in their day-to-day activities, you will be advertising your business as well. Not only does this bring positive attention and possibly a new client, but your previous client will be reminded about your company by discussing and sharing your information.

Personalised business pens are an amazing bargain! Let’s face it, advertising is extremely expensive and many times short lived. When you pay to have an advertisement in the newspaper, on television or on the radio, you will be paying a great deal more then if you have personalised pens made. Once you invest in your promotional pens, your company information is a constant billboard and advertisement. Which means your company logo and name is getting shown around several times a day rather than just once on the television, in the paper or mentioned once on the radio.

There are so many different style’s to choose from. With an advertisement in a newspaper you will have a limited amount of space and a limited amount of styles to choose from. There are endless possibilities when it comes to choosing your personalised pen. Some of the options include: Eco-friendly, plastic, full colour, specialists, top brands, executive and sets. We have just the pen your organization needs! We know you will be extremely happy with the end result. We guarantee it!

Kingsley Metal Ball Pens

If you’re company purchases the same promotional pens each year, why not go for something different and modern to change your image for 2011.

Here at The Pen Warehouse, we offer a vast range of executive pens that have the ability to fit any budget. We have lightweight anodised, aluminium pens as well as high end, Cross and Parker Pens, which are all able to be either engraved or printed to your requirements.

Kingsley Metal Ball Pens are a great range of metal, twist-action pens, with textured barrel and lacquered finish. These pens offer a generous print area on the barrel of 40mm x 25mm. The Kingsley Metal Pen range is also available in two stunning colour options, my favourite being the Royal Blue. It’s a reasonably priced executive metal pen which looks extremely elegant and modern.

Unlike brand name printed pens, these do not come with a gift box, though gift boxes are available from us. I recommend looking into this option because gift boxes will give these printed pens an additional touch of luxury to belie their cost even further. I would suggest going for our PB75 Presentation Box to show off the pens colour and trim. These silver presentation boxes have a flock interior and are suitable for one or two pens- it’s completely up to you.

The Pen Warehouse also now has the ability to now engrave on these pens in house, meaning that lead times are now shorter so if you have a tight deadline to meet, there’s no need to worry. We will do everything we can to ensure you have pens for your event!

If you are still unsure of which executive metal pen to go for, why not contact one of our customer service team who will be more than happy to talk you through available personalised pens to suit your campaign.

Pen Warehouse Video Blog

Welcome to our brand new video blog, my name is Rob Hayes and I head up the marketing team here, at the Pen Warehouse. Over the coming months, I will be talking to you about our exciting new products, special offers and latest business news, as well as taking you on a tour around our website and helping you become more familiar with it’s layout and contents.

Back in June this year, we relaunched our website, pens.co.uk, providing you, our distributors, with a valuable new tool to help your business. Our new easy to use interface, was designed to create a friendly and appealing end user site, that allowed us to attract new potential business, which could then be passed back to our network of distributors.

To maintain the status of our business as a strict trade only, supplier, we have implemented a range of procedures that ensures we can easily pass on the results of our hard work and investment, to our network of distributors, providing new business for you, and greater flexibility for potential future end users. Let me give you an example of how this works…

Once we have received an enquiry via our website, the very first question, any end user is asked is…”Do you have an existing distributor of promotional pens?”. If the answer is yes, that enquiry will then be directed back to that particular distributor.

If no distributor exists, our next question would be to ask if they have a preference to use a local distributor, in which case we would pass the lead on to an approved business in the local vicinity.

If there is no preference to location, then the next step in the process would be to look at the past records for our distributors and see who has previously purchased the product that has been requested and pass the enquiry to them.

Finally, if the product in question has not be purchased recently from any of our distributors, we will take a look at any product reviews on our website and base our choice on that.

When developing our new look site, we put a lot of time into creating areas that provided our distributors with various opportunities to participate in, and benefit from our powerful new features. With you in mind, we have created three new key areas that I would like to tell you about…

To begin with, we have the, “Distributor’s Blog”. This provides you, our distributors, with your own online forum, where you can share your thoughts, ideas and comments on industry topics, or specific products, with other like-minded businesses.

Secondly, to make it easier to voice your opinions and make your own choices on our products, we provide a review section on each product page which, after you have purchased the product, will enable you to not only share your thoughts but also gives you an area in which you can leave a link to your business website. This allows any future potential end users to view your comments and be directed back to your business.

And last, but not least, we are committed to producing at least one blog post every single day of the week, keeping our website current and up to date. We love to hear feedback from you and welcome your comments on these posts which, once approved, will also provide you with another opportunity, to share a link to your own website, directing more potential business your way!

We look forward to working with you to provide an unrivalled business experience.

Thanks for listening and join us again soon for our next video blog update!

News Image for What Are Promotional Pens

What Are Promotional Pens

Pens are a great marketing tool for promoting a business or a special event. Promotional pens are printed pens that organisations and individuals use to promote their business, certain events or special occasions. Businesses as well as individuals imprint pens with their logo, slogan, brand name or special event details. They are available in a range from low-cost economy plastic to higher cost metal to even Eco friendly recycled pens. Choices of full colour printing and custom artwork are available to allow that personal touch to your product.

Marketing is about impressions and the best way to make impressions is with high volume products that hold a perceived value to the recipient. The more consumers you can give a promotional pen to the more impressions you can make. Fortunately printed pens become cheaper per unit when ordered in bulk quantities. A higher portion of the cost is the initial art design and setup expense. This is usually a one-time fee and if spread across larger orders it diminishes the price per unit.

People also can buy personalised pens. Personalised pens can be imprinted with the owner’s name, their favorite sports team or life event such as a birthday, anniversary or birth of a new baby, “it’s a boy” or “it’s a girl” as examples.

Ordering is easy and fast. Use your own artwork or have their artists create something for you. Placing orders online is convenient and allows you to choose a same day dispatch if you need your order in a hurry.

Printed pens are something that people handle everyday and have a practical usefulness. Even in todays electronic age pens are still used on a daily basis. They are a continually seen marketing device that out ways other marketing options.

If you’re looking to market a business, special event or give a personal message to a large amount of people, promotional pens are inexpensive and a practical way to place your message in the hands of your target audience.
