Our Chairman


Dear Friends,

There is a genuine satisfaction when you engage your brand to bring about positive outcomes. Sure, these outcomes often include driving revenue, membership, awareness for your cause or one of many other worthy pursuits. But not to be forgotten is the incredible collaboration that can cultivate in your employees when you associate that brand with a shared set of values, or a culture, if you will.

This principle is timeless and deep; it is where I have anchored so much of my involvement within our industry. I have watched our team grow from the caring efforts of just my family to a throng of able professionals that really want to make you look good.

We’re not perfect, but we expect perfection from ourselves. We do not excuse failings, nor exonerate our duty to quality; rather we believe that your individual experience merits full priority, regardless of volume.

Unifying both your team and the public eye to the values you embody can truly be synergistic … that is what Engraving Etc is all about.

Sincerely,

Bryan L. Welton Jr
Engraving Etc. Inc


Our Beginnings

There is a Christmas-like excitement to receiving a product with your name or logo on it. Bryan Welton Jr. understood this feeling first and always as a consumer. Early on, however, he perceived some formidable gaps in the service model for such products, namely accessibility and production time. In 2001, Bryan engaged to reconcile those gaps with the founding of Engraving Etc. His approaches were much like his leadership and experience, both well ahead of their times.

Accessibility

Engraving and print shops were, and are still today, generalized by local sales. Hometown service is truly valuable, but it doesn’t always help Customer X, who may live 100 miles away. When similar shops stood skeptical for the early ".com era", Bryan took to learning html programming and built an online store that made "hometown service" a reality for everyone.

Production Time

The old adage "A good thing is worth waiting for" is certainly true, but if the wait were unnecessary; would it offend you to get that "good thing" five times faster? Of course, not. Bryan proactively pushed the pace of manufacturing and built up a company culture to be sustained by speedy, yet detail-oriented employees.



Our Vision

We are the global industry leader of identification products. Service, quality and price define our commitment to the client.
We enjoy a high level of job satisfaction by seizing opportunities for growth and exceeding personal expectations.
We efficiently manufacture a vast array of quality products to fulfill all client needs.
We master superior customer service skills to enhance client satisfaction and retention.
We convert our competitors into clients through principles of efficiency and feasibility.
