Custom Canvas Tote Bags

How Canvas Tote Bags Help Promote Your Business

 

If your company is hoping to boost brand awareness, leveraging customized promotional items can be an effective marketing strategy. Rather than relying on promotions like business cards, press releases, and social posts — which people read and quickly move on from — your brand can add customized merchandise to its marketing reservoir.

 

Practical and useful items like custom canvas bags are well worth the investment because they are a marketing tool that can be used again and again.

 

At DiscountMugs, the leading supplier of wholesale items in the U.S., we carry thousands of customizable products your business can take advantage of. Our DesignLab enables companies to create and personalize items, offering the opportunity to add your company’s logo and messaging to them. And canvas bags are an ideal choice for businesses looking to expand their reach.

 

Tote bags have become a popular means of carrying groceries, transporting items from place to place, and remaining eco-friendly in the process. That is why many companies have started taking advantage of them: They are practical and can be used by just about anyone. People also tend to carry totes from place to place, meaning even more people will be exposed to your brand and its messaging — something that doesn’t always happen with items like pens or mugs.

 

Here is why you should consider using personalized canvas tote bags to increase your brand awareness:

 

What’s So Special About Canvas Material?

 

When investing in a marketing strategy, longevity is a goal brands strive for. That is why choosing canvas tote bags—rather than opting for materials like duck cloth—is so important.

 

Canvas is a fabric that is both durable and strong. It is even water-resistant, making it difficult to ruin canvas products by simply taking them outdoors.

 

This means the people you are marketing to will get prolonged use out of your canvas bags. Not only will the person using the bag come to associate your brand with a product that is consistently helpful to them, but they will be able to use it in a long-term capacity. The longer they have it, the longer your company reaps the benefits of the additional exposure.

 

The ability to reuse canvas bags for long periods of time also makes them more eco-friendly than other products. Research shows that more than two-thirds of North Americans prefer doing business with eco-friendly brands, so why give them another reason to consider supporting yours?

 

Marketing Benefits of Custom Canvas Tote Bags

 

Studies show that 90 percent of consumers are more likely to do business with a brand they have gotten a free product from. However, there are plenty of personalized items companies can offer. What makes custom canvas tote bags such a beneficial marketing tool?

 

- They are practical: To start, canvas bags provide genuine value to many consumers. They have numerous practical uses, from carrying supplies to class or work to traveling with children to picking up groceries. This means people are more likely to actually use them.

 

- They build consumer trust: Since totes solve problems consumers face regularly, they’ll start to associate your company with being helpful. This is a great way to build consumer trust.

 

- They are intended for public use: Carrying things from place to place implies whoever is using a tote bag will be out and about — meaning more people will see your branding. Items like kitchenware, car accessories, or office supplies don’t always see the light of day, but canvas bags do. By offering them to consumers, you’re essentially gaining free brand ambassadors.

 

- They are reusable: Canvas bags are reusable, so you will not need to worry about your investment being short-lived. You’re also being eco-friendly!

 

Canvas tote bags have become fashionable in recent years, but our custom totes are far more than just handy accessories.

What’s more, many of our laptop and tablet bags are reinforced to accommodate electronic items, while some of our bags have interior and exterior pockets for mobile phones and charging cables. So why not give your students a tote bag they can use every day, emblazoned with the logo of your college or school?
