No patterns

Hello fellow pencil afficionados!

We recently shredded orders dating back to 2007.  Each order had at least one sample pencil attached to it.  This provided insight into which pencil colors were the most popular.

Interestingly, there was no winner. Every pencil oolor was well represented.  One would think that white, black, pink & purple, and royal blue pencils would stand out but they didn't. There were lots of greens, yellows, other shades of blue, and orange pencils. No print color stood out either, even though we try to steer customers to white print because it is the easiest to read by far.

What did stand out was that golf pencils with erasers far exceeded orders for golf pencils with no erasers. Maybe because children's little hands grasp and write with shorter pencils better. Maybe because our golfing customers change their score cards.  Who knows?

Glad that clean up project is over.  Once again, the shelves have room for growth. So, we look forward to printing your order.  Regards.
