Our History
Cybergraph Advertising, Inc. was founded in 1997 as Cybergraph Advertising and Design after its president, George Michael, left the shopping center industry to create an ad agency unlike any other. His experience as a mall marketing director for six years and attaining the prestigious CMD designation (Certified Marketing Director) from the International Council of Shopping Centers brings a unique understanding to Cybergraph of the shopping center and retail industries. It was his goal to make our clients more successful than they thought possible through marketing and visual advertising at affordable rates.
Today, Cybergraph operates as three divisions, Cybergraph Advertising, MallSigns.com and RaleighBigPrints.com. Cybergraph Advertising is our main creative engine generating logo designs, print ad campaigns, marketing plans and other creative services. MallSigns.com services retailers and shopping centers nationwide through it’s online catalog and ordering system. RaleighBigPrints leverages our in-house large-format printing capabilities to provide affordable, high quality printing to businesses for marketing, trade shows and fine art displays.
In today’s competitive environment we understand that a business' survival is all about branding and maintaining top of mind awareness through marketing and social media. The most successful brands are clear and consistent about whom they are and the messages they deliver. At Cybergraph we help our clients get the best exposure for a reasonable investment. By being innovators, Cybergraph has cut costs and passes those savings along to our clients while providing unmatched quality. We are a full service agency with complete creative services for all your advertising, marketing and social media presence needs. In addition to traditional graphic design, Cybergraph offers web site design and hosting, social media promotion and management, traditional print media design, radio scripting and production, and print collateral item deisgn.
Our mallsigns.com division, serving retailers and shopping centers nationwide, was first in the industry to offer an online proofing system for customized sign orders; first to have a complete online catalog of ready to use designs; and we strive to be first in customer service. For the budget-conscious, mallsigns.com has nearly 3000 designs ready for your personalization to use as posters, banners, flyers, postcards, print ads and more. We are continuing the growth of our design catalog and adding more useful marketing equipment and hardware items regularly. With our exceptionally fast turnaround times on printed products, there is no need to order months or weeks in advance.
CyberGraph and George Michael have been recognized in our field with a Boots Mims Award, a MAXI Merit Award, and the Society for the Preservation of Historic Oakwood’s Special Achievement Award. We are committed to our community and participate in many philanthropic events. We have been active supporters of the Frankie Lemmon Foundation, Crape Myrtle Festival, American Red Cross, North Carolina Museum of Art, Leukemia Lymphoma Society, and Sassafras All-Children’s Playground, to name a few.
