Purchasing Resources for Personalized Pens

Saving Money on Personalized Pens

Find the best ongoing deals for personalized pens
By Lori Carver Saving money on personalized pens should be easy when you buy them regularly. Merchants give discounts for repeat business and quantity. Merchants also offer closeouts and specials on a regular basis, so take advantage of these.
 

Look for ways to save money on setup costs by buying a stock pen with just a little personalization. Choose to personalize your pen in less costly ways. Consider all of the following when saving money on personalized pens:

1. Buy customized pens in bulk.

2. Save on the additional fees for logo pens such as setup costs.

3. Use discount features such as buy ten custom pens, get one free.

4. Take advantage of closeouts, clearances, one-of-a-kind, and return orders to save money on engraved pens.

Get maximum exposure with minimum offers and save on promotional pens

Ask about sales the vendor may be offering. Make sure to order the minimum number of pens to reduce the cost to the next level. For example, some companies will offer a discount starting at 100 pens, so do not buy 75 pens even if you think that's all you will need. There is always a use for company logo pens.
Try: National Pen sells personalized pens in bulk, so check their selection. Pens start at under 40 cents and the sales change weekly. Branders boasts the largest selection of personalized promotional pens and offers discounts for bulk purchases.

Request a complete price list for the advertising pens upfront

Make sure you know all of the costs for the pens. There may be additional charges for using multicolor inks or other special setup features. Avoid shipping charges by buying more pens. Look over the price lists carefully before placing your order.
Try: Promotional Insights offers information on how to save on promotion pens by choosing stock pens with the given amount of verbiage. Customized Pen Store offers advice on where to place the writing on the pens for effective advertising. While this does not save money per se on the pen, the pen's information lasts longer and your advertising gets to more people, thus possibly bringing in more revenue.

Purchase budget promo pens for more exposure with less expense

Find out if there are any special deals on the pens, such as "buy so many, get so many free." If the pen you chose does not have any special offers with it, consider choosing one that does for additional savings.
Try: Best Buy Imprints sells budget pens every day. Browse their selection to find pens that work for your business. Pens Express offers a wide assortment of budget pens, so check their inventory for a pen that fits your business.

Utilize special offers such as closeouts and clearances to save on promotional ink pens

Ask for the special "bargain" room that most merchants have. Find the rejected orders here. With slight adjustments, the merchant changes the ink to reflect your business information, and your reward will be a steep discount for accepting this order.
Try: Quality Logo Products offers sale and closeout items every day. Find quality pens that will not break your budget. Pen Mart offers pens on sale for under 25 cents per pen. Check their deals before you buy your business logo pens.
