Lapel Pins in the news

Gentle readers, listen to my tale told originally by a disgruntled client who braved the shadowy world of decrepit promotional lapel pin suppliers. These purveyors of dubious promotional products, chief amongst them poorly assembled promotional lapel pin models  persuaded this kind and trusting soul that their many years of industry experience and alleged access to thousands of styles of promotional lapel pins would guarantee a job of the highest quality result. Sadly this fine fellow called, in tears, after receiving promotional pins which were too blunt to penetrate the cloth from which his humble shirts were made, and which had been assembled with superglue. The lapel pin delivery delaminated as soon as they were attached to a garment, leaving the organisation unbranded and in a state of low morale. Promotional products fans, ensure that your lapel pin order is obtained from a trusted industry leader, not a dubious fringe player. Avoid lapel pin sin.
