When you start to consider what you are going to send as this year’s company Christmas card you might want to write your self a tick list. First of all you will no doubt want something that is a bit different, so that it stands out above the cards sent by your competitors - you will avoid cards featuring carol singers and those custom efforts showing members of staff wearing Santa hats. You will want your greeting to create an instant impact so a regular card is out of the question – there’s not much impact in a piece of card folded in half. In an ideal world your company’s greeting will create such a stir that it will be passed around your customer’s office for work colleagues to see – thereby spreading the word about your company. It would also be great if your company greeting could remain on your customer’s desk long after your competitors cards have been sent for recycling. Oh, and don’t forget, this wonder product needs to be easily sent by mail and it mustn’t cost a fortune.

So, there’s your list. Can you think of anything that ticks all the boxes?

A desk top pen holder is a good idea as an inexpensive Christmas promotion. How about a pen holder that you can mail? What about one that you can print all over with your own message? How about one that will pop-up in your customer’s hand just as soon as he opens the envelope? A desk tidy that can be printed as a calendar is an even bigger bonus! That’s where our range of pen tidies and pen holders differs from hundreds of others. A pen and pencil holder is perfect choice for a Christmas direct mail campaign or to send instead of a company Christmas card.

A promotional calendar should have a 12 month life span but if it not hung on a wall near the buyer’s desk then it might not be doing you much good. You need to make sure that your company calendar is noticed. Our pop-up calendars are sure to be noticed and desk calendars designed as pen holders will almost certainly stay exactly where you want them – on your customers’ desks!  You can design your own custom calendar to carry your company’s message creating a unique business calendar for a Christmas mail shot!
