Why Your Customers Need An Architect Scale Ruler

3030 Hollow Triangular Architect 12″ Scale 3030

A good way to advertise your company is putting your logo on useful tools. Then give those tools to your customers or contacts. A unique measuring tool is an architect scale ruler. If you are in the building or remodeling business, this form of advertising is taylor-made for you. It will last forever, and so will your logo.

Your clients and customers can use it for:

  • Reading the blueprints for building a new house.
  • Reading the remodeling plans for an addition
  • Making paper models of furniture to put in a new house.
  • Choosing the right size hot tub or Jacuzzi to put in a new addition.
  • Seeing if your present furniture will fit in your new house.

Promotional Maglites® (or maglights) make the best logo gifts for these reasons:

  1. They are suitable for all age groups.
  2. They are appreciated by both men and women.

  4. They last forever. They are covered by a Maglite limited lifetime warranty by the manufacturer (in the western hemishpere).
  5. Your company logo is permanently laser engraved on the anodized aluminum barrel. It will never rub off.

Why You Must Give Your Customers A Pipe Diameter Tape Measure

Well, not all your customers need a pipe diameter tape measure. But these customers really need one. Why not give them one with your company logo imprinted on it?:

  • Oilfield workers
  • Gas field workers
  • Plumbers

    Diameter Tapes

  • Car repair people
  • Boat repair people
  • Arborists
  • Pipeline inspectors
  • Municipal utility workers
  • HVAC installers and inspectors
  • Architects
  • Manufacturers
  • Building contractors
  • Building superintendents

If any of your customers are on this list, a pipe diameter tape measure  with your logo will be visible to them every work day.

If These Are Your Customers, You Should Give Them Tally Books

Pipe tally books aren’t just for the drilling industry. They are used by many other people to record readings and data in the field. They are small enough for a pocket, and water resistant. Tally Books with your company logo are a great way to “woo” your customers, if they are on this list:

  • Oilfield workers and inspectors

  • Gas well workers and inspectors
  • Engineers
  • Survey companies
  • Electric power companies
  • Contractors
  • Geologists
  • Railroad workers
  • Environmentalists
  • Botanists
  • Zoologists
  • Biologists
  • News reporters
  • Truckers

Your corporate logo can be put on the front and back cover, even in full color. The new optional “stone pads” look like paper, but they are water resistant, and cannot be torn. If your customers use your tally books, they will look at your logo many times a day. That’s the best way to target your market advertising. They are also made in the USA.
