Promotional pens are the most popular promotional product in the world. Open up a random desk drawer, and you will probably find at least one promotional pen with a company name and phone number on it.
Why are promotional pens so popular?
Pens are one of the most economical options available. Pens can cost as low as 27 cents each, providing a low-cost way to market a business or organization. Furthermore, pens are useful and likely to be kept.
The drawback to promoting a business with pens is that everyone else is doing it. So, how can a business make its promotional pen stand out?
Don’t just go with any pen. Choose the best promotional pen to suit marketing needs and to impress the target audience.
Here are some examples of different audiences a company may want to target, and the best promotional pens to reach these audiences.
Young Adults
Millennials care about the environment, and 72% of them are willing to pay more for products they see as eco-friendly. Any business looking to target the younger generation should consider a recycled cardboard pen. Not only does it show that a business cares about the planet, but it also is a pen that will definitely stand out from the rest with its unique look.
Children and Parents of Young Children
Try a fun, crazy pen for kids, or for parents to share with their children. We love this Flower Bend-a-Pen. It features a bendable body and arms, and the feet work as both a stand and a cap. Customize it with a logo or message to create a lasting impression on clients with children.
