I Gave her my Heart, She Gave me a Pen

A beautiful sonnet, a heartfelt love note, a letter from an overseas soldier, who says a pen isn’t romantic? Could any of these things exist without one? Okay, so the popularity of the written word has decreased in the recent decade. But the truth is- writing instruments still make up 10% of industry sales. That is second only to wearables. Pens still remain the instrument to learning, communicating and documenting. Everyone is regularly exposed to a pen. So, why do they make such great Promotional Products? Because pens, more then any other item can GROW LEGS!!! Not literally. But a pen has the ability to travel from desk to desk, person to person, counter to counter- you get the point. The imprinted message on the pen is seen by an endless number of people. That is what a promotional product should create, exposure.

But in this evolutionary age, how do you find the right pen? Price is not always the best way to gauge quality. Personal preference is always hard to determine because so many people get to use the pen. A pen should be comfortable in the hand and write smoothly. Imprints should appear clear and meet logo standards. But the key to buying the best pen comes with experience. Finding companies that have a good reputation and who stand by their products. The other benefit to pens is in perception. It is easy to create a high perceived value in pen promotions. Quality, weight, longevity all contribute to easy advertising.

And how the pen has evolved! With the advancement of technology, it’s not only the cell phone that has all the techie gadgets. Flash Drives, UPC coding, digital recording, casino and board games, laser pointers, the list goes on and on.
