got sent this today through the post, how cool is that, well taken in by it. my own ballpoint pen, and a posh one at that.
£30 for 50 but discounts for bulk.
what dya reckon, give them away to custys, worry for me is it will run out before they need there carpets re doing.

I got something similar last year sent to me and I am surprised you're impressed to be honest Derek... They're quite expensive and tacky and there are better ways at wasting your hard earned!
Now an umbrella with your logo on.... that's when you know you've made it ;D

What about fridge magnets?
You need to think of something that the customer will still have the next time they require your services but of course they may just chuck the thing straight in the bin when you walk out the door!

There's a few companies do pens and diaries usually send out samples around September / October they're not bad value, but your details on a spotter is much better

you mean like this bob.

My current pen is one just like yours......
except its got "Chemdry" written on the side.
I found it whilst doing an EOT.
It's a good quality ball so writes well.
Never ever ever done any type of promotion like that although I have a couple of pens, various diaries over the years, some fridge magnets and 3 mouse mats with a calendar on, all of which have been personalised with the details of Doctor Carpet.
These were all sent to me free by the companies who try to get you to place an order.
It really did take them quite a while to work out that I simply would accept their freebies and had no intention of placing an order. ;D

Alan rigby used to do the fridge magnets as givaways to customers..
-
Fridge Magnets are too old fashioned as most people have integral fridges, the spray bottles are the best value for money, pens have been over worked and people see them as 'too free', mugs are more personal and people like them for decoration in the home in a commercial installation may be different but I don't think they will be the buyer you want.

with all this talk of finding vibes in ladies bedrooms, maybe a logo on one of them would be a good idea ;D
i was thinking of doing a bit of booking in for next year but 1) i'm worried they would change there mind when it came to having it done and therefore it would make our relationship slightly awkward once theyve been approached and turned me down, and 2) where the fork do you get a 2010 calendar from ???

Derek your an x trader so the long slow close to book for next year is in your blood .
give them a reason to say yes PLEASE !!
calander vista print have a deal but wait for the right e-mail offer then jump to it
Ps they never change there mind only the month and they seem to add stuff to it
into my 1st year and every on is belling on nicely but a few tweaks to be had here and there
