How to use those promotional pens!!!!





When you start a business or even have an existing business you decide to purchase some nice pens with your company name and information on it. This is a great idea however, all to often people do not know how to use them.

Promotional products are meant to be given away not stored in your drawer, or in your car to use when you are signing those checks. They are give aways. The purpose is to get your name out there to leave a lasting impression and to by chance be picked up by someone who is interested in your services.

#1 make sure your pen has what you do and how to contact you ex: Joe Smith HEATING & AIRCONDITIONING REPAIRMAN available 24/7 call me at 815-444-4444

#2 Leave your pens everywhere, at the restaurant you just ate at, at the salon, at the mechanic, at the vet, just randomly leave them places it is unlike a business card, it won't be thrown away it will be used and eventually not immediately they will look at who it was from and if it has enough info on it like #1 they may just call you especially if they had their heat go out at 3AM they will look at the pen and know this is the guy to call.

#3 Don't get just a average pen, stand out from the rest, make it bold, make it fun!

Use your pens wisely and they will pay off!!!

At first glance promotional pens that are printed with your company logo, name or contact details can seem quite expensive when you are approached by a sales person. But remember that they are leaving room to offer you a “discount” and are also probably offering you a high end product, knowing that if you are unsure they can then try to sell you a lower priced alternative. With just a quick bit of shopping around you can produce something that’s much cheaper.

There is a good range of inexpensive options.
