“The Pen is Mightier than the Sword”
Believe it or not, the evidence is in. It’s official, we have been saying it for years – your printed promotional pens really do speak volumes. Check your desk right now and tell me how many pens you own that have companies logo’s on them. Bet its more than a few, whether they are your suppliers, partners, competitors, next door neighbors or even old hand me downs. The fact of the matter is they are on your desk now, subtly pushing their point with every word you ink.
As you can tell, we rate the humble pen pretty highly here at PromoMate. Writing instruments have been one of the top selling promotional products since the 1990’s and even with the advent of digital technologies, don’t look like going anywhere soon. There really is no substitute for the humble pen.
With so many different styles to choose, normally the hardest part is just that, choosing. Let PromoMate lead the way and help you make the decision with these tips below.

Get Your Brand Out There
When selecting your Promotional Pen you want to have in mind your target audience. Let’s face it, your not going to want to give an expensive metal pen to school kids or as a general giveaway. Our range of branded pencil sets, highlighters or novelty pens on the other hand would be the perfect fit. At least the mums and dads out there are going to know where the Pencils or Crayons came from that drew all over the walls!
Plastic Promotional pens are on the other hand suited to almost every giveaway and are a fantastic way to get your brand or message to the masses. Small and cheap with a great looking printed logo, printed promotional pens are the prefect fit, either to mail out with brochures or samples, to leave behind at meetings and functions or as token gesture to new prospects or established clients.
Enter the Executive heavyweights – our premium metal pens and stationary sets. These really set the tone for businesses who want to impress. Luxurious in looks and heavy on feel. These pens mean business and with bespoke laser engraving, are sure to get you noticed. Many are available with plush boxes and accessories such as USB’s, all which can be printed with your brand. Great for saying thank you to that special client or equally valued as incentives for employees of all levels.
PromoMate prides itself in quality products and our pens are no exception. We can supply the budget options but always recommend the next bracket up. Pens are made for writing and the last thing we want to see your logo on is pens that are poorly manufactured. PromoMate makes sure your pens could write that next best seller or sign that next deal in style.
