Pencils & Other Stationery
In a world of promotional products, businesses are always looking for items that are not only practical, but cost-effective and memorable. We have a large variety of different stationery available on our website (aside from pens), such as: erasers, sharpeners, pencils, highlighters, sticky notes etc. No matter what industry your business falls into, these promotional items offer great value and a perfect opportunity to get your name out there in a creative way.
Why choose promotional pencils and stationery?
Promotional stationery is more than immediately meets the eye, it is a subtle but effective strategy which can help to keep your business on the top of customer minds, there are many reasons why they are effective, and also many ways promotional stationery can be used.
1. Cost Effective Marketing
Promotional pencils and other stationery items are incredibly affordable. Unlike some large-scale marketing campaigns or expensive ads, handing out pencils or sticky notes with your logo is a low-cost way to put your brand in front of a wide audience. Plus, they’re a practical giveaway, meaning your promotional products will be used regularly.
2. Long-Lasting exposure
One of the biggest advantages of stationery is their longevity. Printing your logo on something like a ruler, or a pencil and using it for a giveaway is so effective. This could likely stay on someone’s desk or in their bag for months or even years, continually reminding them of your business. This provides long-term brand visibility without any extra effort from you.
3. Tangible and useful
Let’s face it, people love free things, especially when it’s something they are actually going to be able to use. Pencils, rulers, highlighters are everyday essentials for a lot of people. Giving away useful products makes your brand more memorable because you’re providing something practical. Your logo won’t just be a passing thought, it’ll be associated with something people need in day-to-day life.
4. Eco-friendly options
If your business or target audience is focused on sustainability or how eco-friendly things are, you can also opt for more sustainable promotional products. Many suppliers offer products that have been manufactured using recycled materials, or things that are biodegradable. This can align with your brand’s environmental values and help you connect with an audience that cares about sustainability.
When would Promotional Stationery be useful?
There are so many different uses for promotional stationery, and not always in the workplace. Here are some of the top ways to use custom printed stationery.
1. Trade shows and events:
Corporate events and shows are a goldmine for promotional giveaways. Offering branded stationery at these events not only draws attention but also provides attendees with something practical they can take home and use. Whether it’s a branded pencil to jot down notes or a mini office set to keep things organised.
2. Schools
One of the top places that needs stationery is schools. Investing in some custom printed stationery for the classroom means students will always have access to what they need, but you can differentiate these products from their own (printing your school logo on them). Something so simple could come in handy. It also provides a sense of unity amongst the students.
3. Employee welcoming
Why not provide some branded stationery for new employees when they join. You could create a custom welcome package for new members of staff with all of their day-to-day essentials to immediately include them in the team. In addition to this, you could also use this type of promotional product as an employee giveaway, to build company spirit and to show appreciation for members of staff.
Choosing the right promotional Stationery for your campaign.
When selecting promotional products, you should think about what product you actually want to go for, the quality, and the design. The goal is to choose products that reflect your business and provide practical value at the same time. You should make sure you pick something that will last for an appropriate amount of time. Consider the design and colours you use, do you want something in your brand colours with your logo, or do you want to design something out there and different to get people talking? And finally, you should consider the functionality for customers, will the final product by useful to your audience or do you need to adjust your idea to best fit them?
