Price/Quality
 

If you are not sure about the product or supplier, when buying a stationery, do not focus only on the price. Often, cheap stationery is made of low-quality materials. Therefore, it is better to carefully inspect the entire assortment of interest in advance personally.

 

Another question is if you have reached out to a reliable supplier. In this case, it is more profitable to buy products in bulk. A reasonable price and a guarantee of uninterrupted security are the main aspects that answer the question of what stationery is needed in the office.

 

PERFECTION IS IN THE DETAILS
 

Stationery in the office is provided not only for the organization of the work of working personnel. By the appearance of the office, exactly, as well as by the design of the office space, the visitor will instantly make an impression of the reliability and reputation of your company.

 

CORPORATE IDENTITY
 

Corporate style is designed to emphasize the individuality of the company. Even such a trifle as improperly selected stationery can spoil the first impression of the organization. And it, as a rule, is the most important thing - do not forget about it.

 

If we talk about the image, the first thing that needs to be done is to choose the maximum possible number of stationery in the corporate colors of the company. A single color scheme will be a good help in the recognition of corporate identity. To do this, you need to purchase all office supplies in one place. If you were offered several options for the color scheme, opt for similar items in design or shape. The final touch in corporate identification will be the application of corporate elements (logo, slogan, etc.) to stationery.
