Does Office stationery Help in Brand Building?
When you send a letter to a customer, client or other professional office, your stationery become a representative of your company. Without it, it would be nearly impossible to run your office effectively. Your company stationery says a lot about your level of professionalism. It gives your company image a level of stature and credibility.
So, if you are in business, the purchase of stationery should be one of your most important business investments. It may not seem like it, but it should be right up there with rent and utilities. You may have a nice office, but more likely than not, your stationery will be the first impression that a person will have about you and your services. If your stationery is sloppy or unprofessional your potential client may not even make it to see your nice office.
With that in mind, what kind of stationery should you consider purchasing. Well, at the very least you need to have business cards. If you are on a tight budget, you can find some printers that have some nice business card templates that can be reproduced for a small fee. Of course there are some printers that boast free business cards but while they have no cost up front, the image they present usually tells a lot about how much you are willing to spend. The quality of paper they are printed on and the cookie cutter templates can at times give off the impression that your business is not where it should be. If possible, it would be in your best interest to have some business cards designed specifically for your business. Something that would help you stand out from the rest.
After your business cards are ordered, matching letterhead and envelopes are the next thing. If you can, try not to limit your choices to letterhead and business cards. The word stationery includes all sorts of things. Which one is a customer more likely to remember, a business card or a wall calendar that he has to refer to nearly every day? What about notepads, pens, diaries, highlighters and pencils? If you put your mind to it, I’m sure you can think of more than enough ways to build your business through your choice of stationery.
It really doesn’t matter how you look at it. stationery is a must for any business new or old. An office without appropriate stationery is like going to a black tie affair in blue jeans and a T-shirt. They may be comfortable to wear but you may end up sitting in a corner by yourself while the rest of the party dances on without you.
