This is Fred Ball for Zions Bank, speaking on business.

Mark McLelland believes very strongly in being a champion for the "little guy." Through his company, ELS Productions, he strives to do just that.

ELS Productions is a one-stop shop for CD and DVD disc duplication. The company specializes in producing lesser quantities of discs. Mark says it offers the same high-quality product at a price smaller companies can afford. It recently launched a new Web site which makes it even easier to get an instant quote on all types of packaging options for CDs and DVDs.

The company offers retail packaging on every disk they produce, including full-color prints on the disc itself and shrink wrap around the case. Some of its most popular packaging options include DigiPacks or CD cases printed on four-or eight-panel board stock with full-color photos or graphics.

Last December ELS launched its own exclusive design, the "Eco-Pack", an environmentally conscious package printed on heavy cardstock. The packs provide an alternative to traditional plastic jewel cases that can take years to break down in a landfill, and are more bulky, which means they cost more to ship. Mark says the Eco-Packs have been warmly received thus far.

The idea for ELS Productions came to Mark many years ago following his own experience at a recording studio. Mark learned that many patrons wanted studios to offer additional services. Based upon those needs, he decided to start his own audio production company, and the result was ELS Productions.

ELS Productions is distinguished by its one-on-one customer service. Mark's staff takes the time to meet with clients personally and answer any questions they have. He hopes to see the company continue to expand and offer additional product lines and services, especially as new technology becomes available.

For Zions Bank, I'm Fred Ball. I'm speaking on business.
