What changes the price
- Quantity. Price per piece drops at each quantity break, so 250 pens cost less each than 100.
- Decoration. Number of imprint colors, number of locations and method (screen print, embroidery, engraving, full color) all affect cost.
- Setup fees. Most decorated products have a one-time setup fee per color or location. Reorders of the same design often have a lower repeat setup.
- Brand. Name brands such as YETI, Nike or Montblanc cost more than comparable generic styles.
- Timeline. Rush production and expedited shipping add cost. Ordering early keeps more budget options open.
- Shipping. Quoted separately based on size, weight and destination, and shown on your quote.
Stretching your budget
If your budget is fixed, decide whether you need more pieces or a better piece. A trade show crowd usually calls for an affordable item in volume, while clients and VIPs remember a quality item you give to fewer people. Many clients split the budget: an inexpensive giveaway for everyone and a premium gift for key contacts. See trade show giveaways by budget for specific picks.
Prices are typical ranges, not quotes. Pricing changes with supplier costs, and every order gets its own quote so you know the full price before you commit.
