Pin badges are a great low cost way for your business to have a completely bespoke promotional product. Pin badges are a neat way for your organisation to make little awards for your staff, or for bigger brands they can make excellent collectables.

Alternatively you can leave the badge colour-free, for the traditional metal look. We can even supply an epoxy finished promotional badge, which is a posh way of saying a smooth domed area.

You’re only limited by your imagination, when it comes to the design of your next promotional pin badges, included in our costs, you can have practically any shape you want within a 25 x 25mm area. Of course if you want something bigger, we can still accommodate, just the let the friendly team at Gift Selection know exactly what you want.

Promotional badges are light hearted and fun, yet are a powerful and cost effect way to communicate your corporate identity and promote your business. Promotional badges such as these would be perfect for a charity or a social society in particular.

Affordable branded pens are the most popular type of promotional products. Despite Blackberry’s and iPhone’s being everywhere, the branded pen or even pencil are still as useful as ever.

One of the most popular of all these pen ranges, are the branded ‘Senator Super Hits’. Melissa Chevin, marketing manager at promotional pen manufacturer Senator, observes: “The pen , with its practical, portable and cost effective credentials, continues to be one of the most popular items of promotional merchandise. There is no doubting its role as an integral part of the marketing mix, both internally and externally, in creating and maintaining brand awareness. It is as effective with employees as with customers in communicating a campaign, a launch or a way of thinking.”

She goes on; “The promotional pen has universal appeal (among the literate community) and this is one of the reasons that it spans industries and is utilised by a whole range of organisations from SMEs through to the major blue-chips. However, with thousands of different types of pens on the market, selecting the right one for the can job can seem like a daunting task for the person responsible for making the choice.”

The branded Senator Super Hit is a great choice if you’re looking for something practical and affordable. For the full range, check out www.senatorsuperhit.co.uk and ask their friendly promotions team if you have any questions at all.
