Where to Find Advertising Pens at an Affordable Price
Using promotional products is a tried-and-true marketing strategy. By giving away advertising pens to employees and clients, as well as at trade shows, businesses are able to keep their business name and logo in front of a wide audience. You can purchase advertising pens at low rates through local and online sources.

Local Resources
-
First, explore local businesses for promotional products. Look for "promotional products" or "advertising specialties" as well as "pens." For example, a business in Tulsa might compare the advertising pen prices at Custom Craft Awards, Ad Associates Inc., S & S Textiles Inc., and Barnes Business Development. An advantage of using local wholesalers, manufacturers or retailers is that you can inspect before buying, while saving on shipping and handling costs.
Online Resources
-
Advertising pens are available online through multiple suppliers, such as pens.com, pensrus.com, pensxpress.com, discountpens.com and 4imprint.com/pens. Before purchasing products online, read the applicable purchase agreement and understand any return policies and shipping costs.
Ask for a sample pen that you can inspect. Check the quality of the ink. Ask yourself if the pen writes well or if it smears easily.
Furnish the supplier with the correct information for imprinting: phone numbers, logo or design.
Tips
-
People use pens everyday. Although cheap pens are widely available, people will associate a lack of quality in an advertising pen with a lack of quality in your business. Therefore, avoid accepting the first quote that you receive. Instead, shop around for a good product at a good price.
Distribute the pens strategically so they reach your target audiences. Make sure you have enough on hand for a trade show.
