Our History

Creative Media Group was founded in 1981 to develop interactive tutorials, disk-based documentation and other support materials for the original IBM PC. Exploring the IBM PC was distributed with millions of IBM's computers, as were similar diskettes to support products from Dell, Microsoft, Compaq, AT&T, and others.

In the late 80's CMG began producing custom marketing applications using diskettes and CD-ROMs as the delivery medium. Working with some of the largest corporations and advertising agencies CMG helped pioneer computerized advertising, promoting such products as credit cards and cholesterol reducing drugs. In the publishing industry CMG worked with several publishers to develop viable subscription and advertising strategies for online magazines.

Looking for a global printing partner to produce materials from some large publishing sites, CMG turned to AlphaGraphics Inc., a worldwide franchise organization with 360 AlphaGraphics PrintShops of the FutureŽ in 22 countries. Working together CMG and AlphaGraphics have developed document management systems with online ordering capabilities that allow large companies to standardize and manage their printing needs worldwide.

CMG and AlphaGraphics formally merged in 1998 to provide integrated services to their respective customers. In addition, CMG today operates the most extensive intranet system in any franchise organization; providing a high level of support to all AlphaGraphics owners, employees, and their customers worldwide. Some of the components of this intranet (known as AlphaLink) have been standardized and are being offered for sale under an ASP model.
