Category • Spiral Bound
Foote Printing can handle all of your printing needs, including your very own spiral bound books. There are many different uses for a spiral bound piece, and Foote has the means to get it to you quickly and for a good price too!
A Spiral Bound for the Ohio Secretary of State
This piece is a great representation of how well a spiral bound book can work for the masses. It is an informational handout for all of the volunteers to use at every polling location in Ohio. The great part about a spiral bound book for this case is that you dont have to remember which info in on what page. Instead, you can easily flip to the section you are looking for and proceed with the process listed.
We won the honor of completing this project for the State of Ohio on a bidding process. That means that we were able to outbid our competitors and offer the best price for the best quality and turnaround time on the order.

At Foote Printing, we try to be as green as possible because we care about our impact on the environment. We understand that our industry can create a lot of unnecessary waste. This is why we have resolved to take every possible action in order to reduce our carbon footprint. In fact, our most successful proxy was making the switch to solar power!
How Foote Printing Has Gone Green
Solar Powered
We knew we wanted to switch to a renewable alternative energy, but we didnt know which one would work out best for us. Initially, we thought about installing a wind turbine as we all know Cleveland is a windy city! Sadly, that wasnt a viable option for us as we had nowhere to put the turbine.
Instead, we opted for solar energy. We installed 305 solar panels to our business which cover our entire roof. Covering the whole roof of our shop are 305 solar panels which produce enough energy to power about 80% of our printing! Of course, this can vary from month to month depending on how

We can all agree that large companies such as Amazon are extremely beneficial for our modern society, with our fast-paced lives and ever-growing need for quick and responsive services.

Moreover, why would you want to outsource your money to these businesses when you can get the same value and then some with local businesses?

Sometimes, the old way of doing things is really the best way. Many marketers are finding that print advertising is more effective than digital advertising, and more businesses are choosing to place their marketing dollars into print advertising due to its ability to grab the consumers attention, and ultimately, their sales.
Using Print Marketing to Stand Out
No one has noticed this trend more than Foote Printing. Weve been supplying the Cleveland area with excellent print advertising since 1907. While the digital revolution did change a lot about how businesses advertise, marketers quickly found out that in the world of ads, print is where the customers are. In fact, market surveys show that consumers trust print advertising more than digital, and you can actually use your Google analytics to monitor your print advertising return on investment.
