The Bourquin Group
We believe in creating techonogy solutions that work the way people work. Our solutions make it easier for your customers to do business with you, not harder.
A Little History
In 1970 the first generation of our family started out creating full color catalogs, logos and glossy brochures to help business connect with customers. Beginning in the 1990’s, we became a full service digital agency that helped you build a better user experience online and offline.
Nearly 10 years before Google existed if you wanted to grow your business it meant you needed a computer. Imagine that, just a computer. Cell phones were the size of a loaf of bread, and people were just discovering that you didn’t need a fax.
Today the Bourquin Group’s creates websites, software and apps that leverage AI to help businesses, and make life easier. We don’t make stuff that works for us, we make technology that works for you and your customers. If you want technology that can change your business, you are in the right place.
Two Generations of Building Successful Businesses
Custom Photocraft Since 1970
TeleData Enterptises Since 1985
Combined and re-imagined in 2009
Changing Gears in 2022
Before the internet there were glossy photos and magazines to catch the eye of potential customers. Rich Ryder was a pioneer in the catalog and mail order helping brands with logos, mail order catalogs and product development.
As the world of the internet expanded and then Al Gore invented it, TeleData became an Internic registrar. This let TeleData create domain names for its customers. Admittedly TeleData was sitting on the next boom and completely missed it. TeleData didn’t buy a single domain name on speculation.
There were less than 10,000 registered domains in existence in 1998. Today that many are added every week. Becoming a registrar took one step out of the process for the customer. TeleData could instal the computers, network and set up your domain name for e-mail and eventually a website. We would show you pictures but our cameras still used film then.
If you wanted to grow your business in the early part of the 90’s, you needed computers and eventually a website and an email address that doesn’t end in AOL.com. As the popularity of websites expanded and being a networked office became standard, TeleData was acquired by one of it’s largest equipment vendors.
For 2022, we are taking all of the lessons of our family history and moving forward with a few changes. Our SEO business is gone, we think SEO is over used and now counter productive to the customers experience and journey with business. While this might look like a major shift, it is not a “re-invention”, it is just another minor evolution.

Our Beginning
In 2009, the second generation of the family went to work. The Bourquin Group was created to buy back what little was left of TeleData after the buyers ran it into the ground. Custom Photocraft was added when Rich Ryder decided to retire.
The Bourquin Group isn’t Custom Photocraft or TeleData. It is the best of the two brought together by the original family to continue to improve the secret sauce.
The Bourquin Group has one job, to make the user experience the best that it can be. On the tech side we call this the UX. We are now starting to apply the same philosophy to the offline and onsite businesses. It’s a big challenge to win over a swipe and deliver customer.
Today building a clean website isn’t enough. A website is no longer an online brochure, it is the main connection to your customers. The website has to tell your story and connect you to your customers. Since 2008, the Bourquin Group has grown and been divided into separate divisions which makes it easier for our business to help you grow your business.
The Bourquin Group focuses on your why, and follows that up with creation of technology and marketing solutions that focus on customers, not KPI’s (or whatever buzzword you heard this week). .
We don’t want our customers to feel like we are the only choice. If there is a better copywriter out there, our customers have the freedom to purchase copy from them. If they find a production studio closer to their office, they can choose them. At the Bourquin Group, we offer a full range of services because “Our business is helping you grow your business with a better experience”©
