Executives and office workers all like to receive high quality gifts, and one of the favorite items to receive in the work place is a brand name pen. There are some brands of pens that can be made into promotional pens, and these have a certain presence and value that is always appreciated. There are many brands you can choose from, and you can normally have your logo or a name printed or engraved on a wide variety of models. How much you can spend on these pens will vary from a few dollars to several hundred dollars or more.

The Parker Pen Company makes some of the finest pens in the world. While they are not the most expensive they have a good reputation for being reliable, high quality writing instruments. All parker products, even those made into promotional pens, carry the manufacturer’s warranty that is good for the life of the original owner. They are available in plastic or stainless steel with gold plated trim available on some models.

All come with comfortable rubber grips and are priced upwards of $15. Lower-priced models are available but these are often bought by people as every-day pens and if yours are meant to be promotional pens they will have to stand out as a pen that somebody might not buy for themselves. Fountain pens from this manufacturer are also available, but if you want to really impress with a fountain pen you should probably have a look at Waterman or Schaeffer.

Both of these manufacturers made names for themselves on the quality of their fountain pens, and now you can order these magnificent writing implements as promotional pens. Waterman fountain pens are all made of the finest stainless steel and gold plating, and are also guaranteed for the life of the original owner. What sets them apart from other fountain pen manufacturers is their constant free-flow and leak-protection, ensuring a clean, smooth writing experience for as long as you live.

Schaeffer are slightly more exotic pens and will definitely be appreciated by the writing enthusiast. If you are using this brand as promotional pens it is probably a good idea to include a refillable cartridge or a box of cartridges with the gift as they can be a little bit difficult to get hold of in some parts of the world. These pens are great in sets, and everybody loves to receive a gift set which includes a ball point pen, a fountain pen and a mechanical pencil.

If you are out to impress an executive of your own company or a high profile client, brand name promotional pens are always a safe bet. If you have the chance, try to find out what kind of pen the person uses as their favorite, and go one better. However much it costs if you give somebody a writing implement they would never have treated themselves to, you will have won over a customer or an employee for life.
