A successful promotional item is one that has a long life span and one that comes in handy on a daily basis so that the branding can be seen and recognized. Argons best selling items are usually smaller items that sell in bulk and it’s not surprising as they are mainly low cost and of a good quality.

Pens are very flexible in the promotional merchandise sector as they can literally be used in any brand promotion. All that’s needed is a design and there you have it a fully branded and original item that will be used time and time again. The subtle impact of a promotional pen works well as they are quite small and don’t intrude on a desk. This is great for brand recognition and brand identity as the associations between the item and the brand and positive. Promotional pens are also very useful items and they are used on a daily basis, this is good for advertising as the user will see the branding and subliminally think about the brand on show.

A fantastic pen for a bulk giveaway is the BIC Round Stic. There are a wide range of colours available for branding and the low price tag means lots of units can be ordered.

Nearly every person at some point during their day uses a pen, making this a great opportunity to “get your message across”. Whether they are for cheap giveaways at trade shows or corporate gifts for those extra special clients, we have pens to suit all occasions and affordability.

Over the years, our range of promotional pen range has increased and we pride ourselves on the wide variety on offer now, ranging from branded pens such as Bic, Parker and Sheaffer, to our mid range metal pens, to our classic plastic ball pens.

When branding your company logo we believe engraving is in a league of its own and has a very professional and subtle finish. However printing also allows your logo to stand out strong and bold to incorporate those company pantone colours you would like everyone to remember. The main thing to remember is that the printing area on a pen is valuable due to its size; therefore you must be clear about what message you would like to get across whether it is for a company slogan, website or contact details.

If timing is an issue, then don’t forget to ask our sales team about the 24 hour and 3 day service we can provide on a selection of our promotional pens (select stock only). This service has been invaluable to many customers in the past and our turnaround time is second to none- have a look at our testimonials if you don’t believe us!

Anyway, if you are ever unsure of anything or would like us to put together a quote for you, do not hesitate in picking up the phone and speaking to a member of our friendly sales team who would be delighted to help in any way possible, even if its just for a chat!

It can house all your marketing literature and promotional giveaways as well as being practical as visitors can use it to collect brochures from other stands that they visit.

Promotional Pens - The Write Choice

Friday, September 26th, 2008

People use pens at home, in school, in the office and on the go. Business people have seen the necessity of these handy items in a person’s everyday life. That is why they have come up with the very wise idea of using pens in promoting their business.

There are several types of promotional pens available in the market today, some of which are as follows:

Rollerballs and Ballpoints
Rollerball pens make use of water-based ink that will run even when wet. These pens have a special ball mechanism and require less pressure when used in writing. On the other hand, ballpoint pens make use of oil-based ink that will not run when damped or wet. They also require less pressure and can be ideally used with carbon papers.

Stick, Click, and Twist
Stick pens, which are the most common promotional pen design, simply have barrels and caps. Click pens use a clicking mechanism to retract or expose the pen’s point while twist pens make use of a twist mechanism. The latter two pen designs can also serve as stress relief toys.

Markers and Highlighters
Promotional markers and highlighters are also popular. These items generally have larger areas for you to imprint your company logo and contact information. Although markers and highlighters are also used at homes and in schools, they are most commonly seen in offices and business facilities.

Unique Unconventional Promotional Pens: Novelty, Light-up and Message
Countless promotional pens are being distributed and some of these truly stand out. Novelty pens may feature a theme or shape that will match your message or brand. Glow and light-up pens are simply traffic magnet because of their attractive and out-of-the-ordinary style. Message pens have click mechanism to reveal a scrolling message, allowing you to display more information about the products and services that your company has to offer.

Multifunction and Stylus Pens
Some pens may not only serve for writing purposes. Others are simply multifunctional as they will include mini calendar, hair brush, etc. These types of promotional pens intensify the possibility, as well as the frequency, that your pen will be used more than any other ordinary pens.

Pens are functional promotional items, and there really are so many pen styles to select from. Your customers have probably received other promotional pens before, so it is very important that you must be able to decide on the right choice of pen that will best represent your advertising message.

The Write/Right Way to Promote Your Company

Friday, October 19th, 2007

How many of us have picked up a promotional pen and used it? The answer is the majority of us. Step into any branch of Barclays bank and you will see boxes of promotional pens carefully placed in strategic areas.

Why do they do this? Mainly because this kind of advertising works in two specific ways; the bank is giving their valued customers something useful for free. Barclay’s customers will respond to this form of promotion well, because they feel they are getting a bargain, and they didn’t even have to pay for it!

Secondly the Bank’s company name and logo is being advertised all over the UK at a very low cost. Promotional pens are available in many interesting designs and colours; just choose a design that best represents your company or business. Always buy good quality promotional pens, never cheap and nasty pens. Spending just a few pence more can make all the difference when it comes to promoting your business. There’s a big difference between a budget promotional pen and poor quality one. So pick a well respected promotional gift company to buy your promotional gifts from. Whatever line of business you are in corporate or just starting out, a promotional pen is a universally popular choice of customer gift. Look after you customers and they will look after you. www.argonpromo.co.uk.
