Consider the audience you want for your tote bags. If you&rsquo;re a higher end book store or record shop, add a really nice design instead of a promotional tagline and you can sell the tote bags.<\/p><p>If you&rsquo;re looking for attention at a tradeshow, go for something bold and bright!<\/p><h2><strong>3. Tote Bag&nbsp;Sizes<\/strong><\/h2><p>Again, the size of the tote bag depends on who you&rsquo;re giving them out to. For promotional events like trade shows, a small non-woven tote bag will help people carry their stuff around.&nbsp;At a book show or record store however, a larger tote makes more sense.<\/p><h2><strong>3.&nbsp;Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h2><p>At Artik we&rsquo;ve been printing totebags for over 30 years. Our staff can walk you through the totes on our website or you can come in to see samples for yourself. We find a great design with a simple colour scheme will save you money and attract more attention from customers and potential clients.<\/p><p>When you need tote bags printed in Toronto, come to Artik.
