The Pen Warehouse pens of September 2010

The English author, Edward Bulwer-Lytton coined the adage: “the pen is mightier than the sword.” So why ever be without the world’s most powerful tool? The chances are that everyday we’ll be required to write something down, it doesn’t matter whether you’re writing a quick note to a loved one, a shopping list or a greetings card chances are you’ll need a pen. Which is why, here at The Pen Warehouse, we provide an excellent range of pens at competitive prices to suit all your needs.

Since the late seventies we’ve been building up an enviable reputation for quality and service as a trade-exclusive supplier, specialising in printed pens and complementary promotional products, including promotional crayons and promotional pencils. And our innovative approach to supplying pens has helped define, not only the way promotional pens are designed but also marketed to reflect the demands of today’s discerning buyers.

Here at The Pen Warehouse, all of our pens and pencils are stocked in large volume; ethically sourced and we guarantee that they comply with latest EU legislation, which is why we’re one of Europe’s largest trade suppliers of a number of pens in various box sizes and at various prices including:

• Ballpens

• Rollerballs

• Fountain Pens

• Marker Pens

• Highlighters

We also offer a large range of personalised pens, eco-friendly pens, recycled pens and pencils, which can be made from materials as diverse as corn starch, algae, recycled paper and recycled plastic.

We have a nationwide network of distributors that will ensure your order will be dealt with safely and efficiently – at local level. So if you require a large quantity of quality pens we can get them to you via the same day despatch or a 3 day despatch – depending on how quickly you need them.

The amount of promotional printed pens produced in the UK as a whole is mind-boggling and you culd be forgiven for wondering where they all end up.

I attend many exhibitions each year, some related to business and pens but most others are to do with graphics and digital imaging, such as photography and various collecting tradeshows. It never ceases to amaze me at the amount of promotional items that are used as exhibition giveaways. Personalised pens seem to be one of the most popular items used as exhibition giveaways, probably because they are functional and relatively cheap. They come in all sorts of shapes and sizes but printed plastic pens seem to be the most popular, again because of their price point.

We have never done any analysis on the percentage of pens that end up as Exhibition giveaways but it is probably a fair percentage. Increasingly, we find that recycled pens are finding favour as exhibition giveaways because everyone wants to demonstrate their stance on the environment. Here at The Pen Warehouse we have a huge range of environmentally friendly pens and environmentally friendly pencils, many of which are available on our express pen printing service, some even within a 24 hour turnaround.

We can supply samples of any of our printed plastic pens free of charge, whether you want them as exhibition giveaways or geneal promotions if you let us know your requirements.

Here is a Hot Tip

Carry out a survey with your top 100 customers and ask them when they are doing their next exhibition or tradeshow. Log it in your diary or CRM system and send a few of our mailers on promotional pens to them a few weeks before the event and then follow it up by phone. Be persistent and if you keep doing this on an ongoing basis you will find that after two or three years you will have a regular customer base of contacts that require exhibition giveaways.
