Meet The Team

Ben Coale has been the owner of Trojan Graphics. Before Trojan Graphics and Playmaker, Ben was a science teacher and football coach. He enjoys applying things learned in that profession to his business today. The practice of developing and working with a team has been significant in putting together the fantastic staff at Trojan Graphics. Owning a small business makes a person part of the community and Ben deals with many local businesses, schools, non-profits, and churches. He truly enjoys the personal relationships he develops with his customers and he prides himself in being customer-focused. When Ben is not working, you will find him spending time with his wife, Olivia, and his son, Webb. He hopes to teach Webb aspects of owning a small business such as problem-solving and work ethic. On many days, you may see a cute little red-headed boy “working” with his Daddy.

Mark Culver is partner/owner of Trojan Grapics.  Mark has served as Houston County Commissioner and Chairman since 1986. He has been active in the local business community, being involved in ownership of several companies and having served as a commercial Realtor since 2000. Mark has three children: Dr. Stephanie Simmons, 35, Robert Culver, 32, and Cannon Culver, 21. 

Jim English has been the manager, artist, and primary salesman for Trojan Graphics since it first opened its doors in downtown Troy in 1997.
