Popularity of Promotional Pens

Over the years, I have owned and used a boxful of promotional pens, much to my personal benefit and immediate convenience.

Since they were free and wrote well, I was able to develop as a consequence fond memories and a practical dependency on the handy ones that I carefully inserted into my shirt pocket for future reference.

I have particularly found their shapes, sizes and touches to be attractive and the information I found when I needed a phone number or address to be nearly invaluable.

Some of the myriad sources of pens I have acquired over the years have been doctors’ offices, local businesses, poll takers, even the public library. What did they advertise? A slogan, an address, some invaluable information, perhaps a person to contract and, of course, a convenient local or toll-free phone number. There might even have been a map with an arrow pointing out HERE WE ARE.

Why am I saying this?

Well, I like and use pens, including the free ones I have received, and am happy to put a positive spin on a practical situation.

Many of the free promotional pens I have been given have been handed to me by someone willing to talk about the pen provider and answer questions, but I have also received a few in the mail with promotional literature and even acquired others by either asking for or taking a free sample provided in a conveniently placed box, a cup or some other cleverly designed container carefully situated in plain sight on a convenient desk or table. Clearly, a good pen is the right way to put answers on paper.

I have even had a set of pens with my name and phone number created at a reasonable cost in place of a business card. I could have had pens made with pictures and logos and other attractive designs but, wanting to keep things simple, decided my name and number would be enough. After all, what else is more important or useful to someone wanting to contact me.

I truly believe promotional pens are the right answer to practical problems.
