Choosing and Ordering Promotional Pens


< back to articles


Promotional pens are available in a very wide range of different styles, colors, ink colors, and materials. There are several different design decisions you’ll need to make to ensure you choose the best promotional pens for your purposes.

Selecting your Promotional Pens
The first step in making your selecting will usually be choosing a price range. Pens range enormously in price from a few pence for a simple plastic pen to more than ₤15.00 for a really high quality executive pen set. The easiest way to find the price range that will work best for you is to first decide how much money you want to spend on pens in total, and then decide how many pens you want to buy. With these two question answered, you can then determine your maximum price per pen.

Next, you’ll want to choose between plastic and metal, and perhaps decide if you would prefer to choose a particular brand of pen, such as Prodir or Parker. The types of pens you choose will for the most part be dependent on how you plan to distribute the pens, and the people that you will give them to. More expensive executive pens are in order if you plan to distribute them to highly valued clients or employees, while inexpensive plastic pens are suitable for a much wider variety of promotional purposes, including trade shows, conferences, conventions, direct mail marketing and other types of advertising campaigns.

Don’t stop yet—there are still other style decisions to make. Often you can choose between different ink colors as well as different colors for the pen itself. You’ll also be able to choose from a variety of different barrel styles, as well as different mechanisms for protecting the pen, and preventing ink leakage. These can range from a simple click pen, a capped pen, or a twist pen that twists the nib up inside the pen when it is not in use. All of these are relatively minor decisions, but they do contribute to the overall effect and utility of the pen, so they should not be overlooked.

Adding your Message to Printed Pens
Most people will choose to add simply their company name and contact information to a promotional pen, and perhaps a company logo as well. If you really want to make your promotional pens stand out and get remembered, a logo or slogan can be a great addition. Slogans that make use of language techniques such as alliteration and puns are both good ways of getting people to remember the slogan and your company.

Ordering your Promotional Pens
Once you’ve chosen your pens and the text you want to add to them, ordering your promotional pens is simple. You’ll be able to choose whether or not you want additional print colors, as well as choose the colors of the pen itself.

In most cases, your promotional pens will take up to fifteen working days to be completed. Some styles of pen offer a much faster turn-around time so your pens can be ready in as little as one week, but if you want to get your pens this quickly, you will not have as many varieties to choose from.
