Believe it or not, winter is actually a great time to order promotional golf umbrellas.

While the weather's still cold, a logo golf umbrella will offer protection from the rain, sleet and snow. The Hurricane Wind-Proof Vented 62 Golf Umbrella can stand up to even the harshest of storms.

Promotional Pens and Pencils – Always A Sure Bet

There's a rule of thumb that says a pen will have around eight owners during its lifetime. Multiply that by a mere 100 promotional pens, and you've got 800 people exposed to your brand, with minimal effort on your part. That's just one of the many reasons why promotional pens and pencils are a great choice for your marketing dollars.

Another reason why we love logo pens and pencils is the wide range of prices and styles. Whether it's a corporate gift for your top client or a mass giveaway, you can find exactly what you need. For instance, if you have a booth at a tradeshow or fair, stock up on some Best Value Pencils. The unbelievably low price makes it affordable for any size business to hand out generously. Or, for just a few cents more, you can really stand out from the crowd with the eye-catching Best Metallic Foil Colors Pencil.

logo pensPromotional pens and pencils can also function as business cards. For about the same price as a high-end business card, you can give out an executive style pen like a Bic Grip Roller Ball Pen With Gold Plated Accents.

Desktop products and accessories are excellent promotional products because they put your business inside your client's office. Not literally, of course, but your company's name and logo is on constant display if you can land yourself some desktop real estate.

To guarantee yourself a prominent spot on the desk, choose a stylish, upscale pen like the Catalan Twist Brass Pen. For a more casual work environment, try something fun and fresh like the colorful All American Frosted.

When you buy promotional pens and pencils, there's no gamble because they're always a sure bet!
