Just to add some detail - we would have to use the horizontal logo, as the other won't work. The color logo is obviously more attractive, but you have to pay for each different color in the imprint, so using it on the pencils would take the cost up to almost $.50 cents a pencil.

Here's the sample my contact sent me (http://www.shepenco.com/ClientProductDetails.asp?action="">).
I suggest using the black and white logo, but then picking a color of pencil that is found in the logo. "Gloss green" or "teal blue" might be the closest we can get, but would look good with the logo in all white on them. (I'd lean toward the green, personally...)

Hello FOLKS,

I asked Bradd to modify the logo a tad to darken the color of the smaller letters. I also asked him to provide a black and white version, as it will be much less expensive to print a black and white logo on a pencil than to pay for all of the colors of the other one. Let me know if you're happy with the new ones, and if you are, we'll be good to go!

I also checked in with the guy I used to do business with for PR materials to see what pencils would cost. The price for 1000-2000 pencils would be between $.13 and $.145 cents each. So for 2000 pencils it would be about $260 - $290, plus a small one-time fee for the imprint (not per item, in other words).

Thanks much,
Beth
