Cindy Sutherland

Former club member, Cindy Sutherland, Red Letter's Strategic Partnership Manager, was our speaker today and shared some very interestin facts and stats on technology in general before telling us more specifically what Red Letter does in this and surrounding communities. Their offices are located in the new Align Center for Workforce Development on Adrian's east side.
 
In addition to the information shared and confirmed by their website: Red Letter was founded in 2002 as a recording studio located in downtown Adrian. Since the beginning there has been a passion for learning the evolution of technology and providing top quality experiences along the way.
 
Red Letter has since become a cutting edge technology partner for IT Management, phone & security systems, Audio/Visual needs, & Events. The top priority every day at Red Letter is to build relationships that last, providing effective solutions for our clients that truly make their lives better. The tech industry will continue to grow & evolve, and our team at Red Letter will be with you every step of the way.
 
Red Letter has set a goal of being distinct, different, & held to a higher standard – we want this standard to be The Red Letter Way. We take pride in doing things right the first time, and striving to be the best in every area we offer to our partners. Our WHY, our purpose, our mission is to make our client’s lives better by making technology simple & effective for them to use.
 
Great to see you again, Cindy, and thank you for a very inciteful presentation! be sure and contact Cindy should you need any assistance im meeting your technology needs.
