Curt Donohue brings unique skills to RedBarre.  He is a grass roots expert in producing client video content specifically intended to capitalize on the growth in Internet video.  Video production and broadcasting have traditionally been the provenance of large companies.

Recent changes in SEO strategies, bandwidth capacity, and cost of producing quality video have dramatically increased the opportunities open to small businesses in this market.  Curt is at the leading edge of this new, burgeoning field.  He produces top quality video meeting tight cost constraints and the Internet criteria for quality, message length, and viewer engagement.

Curt brings other skills and abilities as well.  Prior to 2008, he was leading multi-million dollar commercial construction projects for end clients such as Centurylink, Level 3, Celestial Seasonings, Ball Aerospace, and Great West Life.  He developed a reputation for delivering his projects on time and under budget and established trust relationships with Fortune 500 C-level client executives.  The 2008 economic downturn allowed Curt to pursue his long-held dream to enter a new career in Internet technology.

RedBarre is looking to Curt to lead field operations, manage client projects, and ensure customer success.  He is a master at asking great questions that directly serve to discover each client’s “why”, and translating it into powerful solutions that deliver the required end results.  He speaks the corporate language of timelines, capital expenditures, and results.
