Designing a promotional pen

There are a lot of things that go into manufacturing a promo pen. in this article we are going to describe a few points to help you promote your message or organisation through the use of promotional printed pens.

1. Keep it long and narrow!

Because of the construction of the pen, stacked logo designs and highly complex logo imprints will not always display well, a pen manufacturer will often show your logo on the pen before they are put into production enambling you to view the finished product before comitting to any expence at all.

When designing your pen branded pens offer free unlimited amendmants and artwork changes to your pen, the design team will also show you a few examples of what looks good and may even change around your logo arrangement to fit the pen design chosen.

2. Metal vs Plastic

A metal pen is usually percieved as far better than plastic, however there are now many many pens in the collection that offer a metallic finish, they are manufactured from high grade quality plastic and are often far more cost effective than some metal promotional pens.

However when its an elegant message you wish to convey then look no further than metal or alloy pens for your next promotion, often used by large corporate organisations and made in a vast array of finishes and colours with either imprint or laser engraving your message will last forever with a premium bespoke metal comission.

3. Quality

Many large companies will offer pens at a very low price, however before jumping the gun and ordering these pens you may wish to order a physical sample just to be sure of product conformity, many companies will often make metal pens with plastic components inserted and inferior components or low quality ball points.

Always remember to look at the pen and feel its weight, how tight are the buttons and screw on detachable sections. Also see if the pen rattles & if the ball point of the pen is solid and held firmly in place.

After all nobody will see your message if the pen ends up in the trash!
