If anyone has ever told you that virtually anything can be promotional, they were not kidding. We live in the day and age where people are personalising everything in order to accentuate the fact that it belongs to them. There are also other reasons in which items are promotional and those reasons range from simply adding a promotional touch to a gift to putting business information on items that would not usually be thought of as marketing materials.



One of those items is colouring pencils. Promotional colouring pencils make a great companion to promotional colouring books. The thing about giving away colouring books is the fact that they need to have something to colour them with. Without something to colour with, then they can't use the colouring book the way it was meant to be used. Promotional colouring pencils change that in every way. Basically, they are the icing on the cake, the finishing touch.

As a business tool

If you give away colouring books to children in your business, then you have to add in something to colour with. Promotional colouring pencils are a great way to do that and the most obvious one. You can have your business name and information printed on each of the pencils. That way, when mom and dad find them throughout the house, they will see your information on them. What better way to provide a constant reminder that you are there to meet their needs? Not only do they see the colouring book that you have provided, but the promotional colouring pencils add that additional reminder that you provided something for their children and you have what they need at this moment.

As a party favour

Using promotional colouring pencils as a party favour doesn't just apply to a child's birthday party. They do make great giveaways to the other kids when colouring books are provided. For example, you can have printed on the promotional colouring pencils, “Jake's birthday party, 2008.” Jake gets that promotional touch to his party and the kids and parents are reminded where they got the pencils from. Chances are they won't forget Jake's party the next year.

Maybe you're having a bachelorette party and you would like to add an interesting game involving promotional colouring pencils. If so, you can have the words, “Jane's bachelorette party, 2009. The end of freedom”, or something cute like that. It is obvious that you have a lot of flexibility when it comes to promotional colouring pencils.

As a sign of ownership

Maybe you area teacher or you teach Sunday School at your church. Maybe there's a problem with coloured pencils disappearing and you need a way to keep them within the classroom. If so, then promotional colouring pencils that say, “Property of…” would be a great way to ensure the pencils do not leave their home. If they do, then they can be returned, reducing classroom costs significantly. There is just so much that you can do, making promotional colouring pencils a very worthwhile investment in so many ways.
