Pens are small and fairly cheap. In respect to using them as gifts, they are well used. They don’t get thrown until they have been fully used. Depending on usage, they usually have a life span of one to two months.. Because of this versatility they are a perfect gift.

These days, black ballpoint pens are the most popular ink color; most pen producers would agree. When you are looking for advertising exposure the black ballpoint pen has the best dollar for dollar advertising and market exposure value. Your clients can be constantly reminded of your business each day when you add your branding or unique company features to the pen.

Black ballpoints are the most preferred amongst sales people & office workers but blue is next in line in popularity. Odd and interesting colours such as pink or orange can also be used, but are of little usability. They’re best for children’s wear businesses or party-hire companies. After all you are giving a very practical gift so it may be better to stick with blue of black ink.

Imagination is the only limit when it comes to the exterior body of a pen. As long as the pen is still usable practically as a pen, you would still achieve your exposure goals regardless of how it looks like.

On the pen’s body, you should first focus on company info you want to put, before considering the pen’s body design next. If you do not do this you may end up choosing a physical design that you cannot add the info you want which would defeat the original purpose.

Quality looking pens will be preferred by more people than cheap looking ones, so do not go too cheap when it comes to the body of the pen. Don’t use cheap pen interiors either. A lot of us has thrown away a pen in frustration because a pen does not work when we tried using it. If a person gets this experience from your pens, they can associate it easily with your company. They will end with a bad impression of your business.

Good suppliers of corporate gifts should be able to not only purchase the pens you want in the numbers you need, but also be able to consult you on some of the pen body design and quality aspects that we have covered.
