Pens instead of cash discount

In business, one of the ways to increase sales is by having promotion. Promotions can come in many ways. Normally giving free gifts attracts more sales than discounts. Unless you can afford to give big discount like 30%-50%. This is very unlikely for small business. If you are only willing to let go 10% of your profit, giving out gifts if more attractive. One of the cheapest gifts is pens. Everyone needs a pen. Even my baby boy loves pen. To chew on them! Maybe the ink tastes nice! :D
