The brand of promotional product you give away can be as important as the product itself. Giving away brand name promotional products says a lot of good things about your business. It shows that you are concerned with quality, and it also cultivates an image of success.

When you hear brand name, you might automatically think "expensive." However, tha's not always the case. Brand name promotional products can be just as affordable as another giveaway item on the market.

Take pens for instance. Bic is perhaps the most recognizable name when it comes to writing utensils, and you can have these top-quality pens personalized with your company's name and/or logo for less than fifty cents a piece!



Bic Clic Stic Foil is a highly affordable option, but no one will ever guess they were a bargain price when they see the hip, eye-catching foil designs. Another affordable standout is the Bic Body Action Retractable Pen. Their extra-large circumference means they'll never get buried at the bottom of a drawer or briefcase.



When you're set to really impress, hand out some Bic Grip Roller Ball Pens. With their gold-plated accents, the Bic Grip Roller Ball has the executive look of much more expensive pens. The highly recognizable Bic name further boosts your image of success.

The holidays are a season of giving. As a business, you want to be a part of this charitable spirit. A simple way to do that is to show your appreciation to the organizations working hard to give back to your community.

On top of your own holiday giving, say thank you to local charities with promotional pens and pencils. These groups work tirelessly throughout the year, and especially during November and December. Promotional items allow you to show you care in a unique way.

The idea is a simple one. Order promotional pens and/or pencils in festival colors, imprint them with a holiday message, and attach a candy cane - there you go! It's an affordable token of appreciation, and delivering them in person establishes that person-to-person contact that's so crucial in developing long-term relationships.

The #1 Selling Bic Round Stic is absolutely perfect for this project. They're priced at less than a quarter a piece, and they come in virtually every color combination under the sun.

If a more upscale pen or pencil is in your budget, look to the #1 Pen Deal on the web (it's buy one, get one free!) or the Bic Pro Select Office Series Mechanical Pencil. (pictured below) Both are a handsome stainless steel color, and write and feel as smooth as the top premium pens on the market. These high-end writing instruments will give a little added boost to your message of appreciation.
