Who Is ESG Graphics?

ESG Graphics was started by Eric Gale in January 2007. 

While I was the Marketing Manger for The Aegis I noticed that local businesses did not have many options when it came to marketing, web design, or web marketing. 

The options seemed to be either an affordable but not local firm or a large and unaffordable local firm. I wanted to offer another option.

I created a local boutique firm that uses my years at a Fortune 1000 company, the local paper, and a mid-size company to help small businesses. 

Most businesses are Davids and not Goliaths. (see stats here)

Even in this internet area, meeting face to face is important.  That’s why a local firm is desirable. I will gladly come to your office or buy you a coffee and bagel at the Festival’s Panera Bread (or your location of preference).

The ESG Graphics Difference

Like David, we all chose to fight a Goliath. We get up each day to face what the world brings to our business.

We all have experiences in our past that can help us face our todays. There are new expressions of things (FaceBook = word of mouth marketing, E-mail = direct mail, etc.).

You are smart. You are running a business or non-profit.

What you may need help with is incorporating some of these new expressions into your operations.

Some people think that they should blindly follow what the "big guys" are doing. This doesn't work. We need to find out what works based on your needs.

I take the time to meet with you in order to know where your are coming from, and where you want to go. We are all in a battle (for customers, profits, etc.) I help you pick the right sword or sling to use.

My Goal

To provide a viable web presence for every “Mom & Pop” shop, small business (I define it as a business under 10 employees), and non-profit in Bel Air and Harford County.

So regardless of whether you are a home-based business or have a store front with employees, you will get one-on-one attention. You will be talking directly with the person who will design the web site or marketing materials so you save money and time. And that will help you grow your business.

Life’s Approach: Jedi Master Wanna-Be.

Growing up I wanted to be a Jedi Master. Since I couldn’t build a light saber, I focused on be coming a martial artist.  I’m now a 2nd degree black belt and Sensei (certified instructor) in Tai Chuan Do.

I use the same discipline and strategic thinking that is required to become a black belt, to helping you.

My approach to work and life is a combination of the movies I love and the books that I read.
