Everyone knows that for a product or brand to succeed it must reach a high level of name (brand) recognition. There are many different ways to accomplish this, the more traditional being television commercials and jingles. You know, those annoying songs that you can never get out of your head. Well, promotional pens work in much the same way, but without being annoying. Instead of a catchy tune relaying a message with brand name and contact info the promotional pen works by more of a brute force method, simply making the potential customer see the information so many times it eventually becomes second nature to them.
People sometimes wonder why brand recognition is important, and scoff at a plumbing company distributing promotional pens. The concept is really quite simple when you think about it, however it is no entirely obvious. Brand recognition is not about getting potential customers to immediately call in for business, but rather making sure that your brand or product stays in their mind so that when they do need something you offer your company name or product will be at the for front of their minds ahead of the competition.
How then do you go about reaching the largest number of customers with promotional pens? First start by identifying where your ideal customers are likely to be. This can be done easily enough by looking at their demographic and the habits they tend to follow as a whole. Younger people frequent clubs, bars, and college campuses. While older individuals might attend more churches, hospitals, and go grocery shopping.
After you have identified a likely location then you must come up with a way of distributing your pens. It is not always as easy as leaving a box out for people to take. At the backs of churches there are often information tables where you can leave a box, but this strategy does not work well for other places. In office buildings and hospitals you will need to talk with the office manager and offer them the pens to use as they see fit. It is also worthwhile to give promotional pens to your existing clients, as they will likely inadvertently circulate them for you. As the clients use them they will likely give them away to others in need of a spare pen, thus circulating your promotional pens for you.
