Let’s talk about something simple but powerful—Custom tote bags. These aren’t just bags; they’re mobile billboards for your brand. Every time someone carries one, they’re advertising your business—for free!
At Elixir Print, we’ve helped hundreds of businesses, cafes, shops, and events create tote bags that people actually want to use. Want to know how printed tote bags can work for you? Keep reading.
Why Printed Tote Bags Are a Smart Choice
1. They Get Seen… A Lot
Think about it:
People carry them to shops, markets, and work
They get reused for months (unlike flyers that get tossed)
They’re practical, so people keep using them
2. Eco-Friendly = Good for Your Brand Image
Plastic bags are out. Reusable tote bags make your brand look responsible and modern.
3. Perfect for Any Business
Cafés & Shops: Give them with purchases (great alternative to plastic bags)
Events: Sell or give them as merch
Brands: Use them as freebies to promote your name
Tradespeople: Hand them out with your contact details
4. Affordable Advertising
For the price of a few online ads, you get hundreds of walking ads that last for years.
How to Design Tote Bags People Will Actually Use
A boring tote bag gets stuffed in a cupboard. A great one gets used daily. Here’s how to make yours stand out:
1. Keep the Design Simple & Bold
Big, clear logo
Short slogan (if needed)
Bright colors that pop
Bad Example: Tiny text crammed in a corner
Good Example: A bold, centered logo with your brand colors
2. Choose the Right Bag Quality
Cheap, flimsy bags tear fast. We offer:
Standard Cotton – Good for light use
Heavy-Duty Canvas – Lasts longer, feels premium
Eco-Friendly Options – Organic cotton or recycled materials
3. Pick the Best Print Style
Screen Printing: Bold, vibrant colors (best for simple designs)
Digital Printing: Great for detailed artwork or photos
Embroidery: Fancy & durable (perfect for luxury brands)
Where to Use Custom Tote Bags?
1. As Shopping Bags
Replace plastic bags in your store. Charge a small fee or give them free with big purchases.
2. Promotional Freebies
Hand them out at:
Markets & fairs
Corporate events
Networking meetings
3. Sell Them as Merch
If you’re a café, artist, or event, sell them as stylish merch.
4. Employee & Client Gifts
Great for staff welcome packs or corporate gifts.
