  1. Get a tally book with a pen loop attached to it. This keeps your pen where you need it the most.
  2. Get one with a hard cover, or a flexible cover. You can determine what is the best for you.
  3. Determine if you want a sewn-in pad or a wire-o pad. A sewn-in pad is a permanent arrangement. A wire-o pad allows the pages to easily be torn out, but the book lies flat when you are using it.
  4. If you work in a wet environment, get a “stone pad” instead of a “paper pad”. The new Stone Pads will not get soggy when wet. They won’t tear, either. Also use a writing instrument that works well when wet.

  6. Get your company logo imprinted in
