Our Story





We began with a passion to help local businesses grow.
Big Fish Digital Signs started as a local business membership organization, "The Wilson Business Alliance," in Wilson NC
Since then, we've grown to become a national provider of affordable advertising, digital signs, and our exclusive Neighborhood Network TM program.
The brainchild of Patrick Joyner, owner of Computer Central Inc.,, the Wilson Business Alliance helped consumers connect with businesses on the internet, long before smart phones and search engines. Local networking events and advertising opportunities followed, and the members included national franchises as well as locally–owned "mom & pop" retail stores.
In 2008 the WBA welcomed Michael McHarg as marketing director, and began using the emerging technology of digital signage. 10 in-store signs turned into a local network of 20+ screens. Local businesses, franchises, and independent professionals all enjoy the benefits of low-cost, high-exposure advertising through our programs.
Big Fish Digital Signs, now owned by Mr. McHarg, continues to add new services while expanding into new communities with our Neighborhood Network TM.
We offer a variety of services including fundraising opportunities, business organization benefits, internet advertising, in-store or in-stadium networks, as well as employment for sales people and entrepreneurs, coast to coast.
Any company which is committed to our core values and who shares our passion for empowering local businesses with effective and affordable marketing tools is a candidate for partnering with us!
We’ve grown, evolved and expanded over the years, but we've never lost our primary mission: “Transforming the way local businesses share information.” Take a look today at our Neighborhood Network TM and see how we can help you grow.
