Surely they know about logo imprinted pens and promotional t-shirts but so many different business owners miss the mark when it comes to using these imprinted items for their own business advertising. Perhaps this is because they really don’t understand business marketing or perhaps it is simply because they don’t really know how to order and then how to integrate these products into their business effectively.

In smaller areas, many times you either don’t have access to this type of business or if you do they will charge an arm and a leg for their products because they really don’t have much competition locally. It is for this reason that many business owners choose to order products from a larger online company.

Of course, you may be thinking that doing so will wind up costing you quite a bit more in wait times, shipping, and handling charges, however, many companies will waive these charges for orders over a certain amount. Some companies even go as far as to upgrade shipping to a faster method on orders over a specific amount as well. Many times even when including shipping and handling, larger companies can simply afford to take a smaller profit per item or can order in bulk which means they can charge the customer less and still make a killing.
