In early 2019 at Sawyers & Jacobs, we began development of an online platform to reach our clients who wanted our approach to banker education and our original content but in an on-demand, online environment with presentations viewable anytime and on any device. That client-driven demand led to
RedTorch Academy which has proven a popular new service for our clients across the nation. We can now help more clients, more efficiently, and without travel restrictions.
We established RedTorch Studios in our Collierville headquarters to develop on-demand content as well as live presentations. Using the latest tech to reach our clients on a variety of platforms, on their terms and at their convenience, was our objective.
Little did we know how important this significant investment and year-long project would be, as March 2020 ushered in a new world and a new way of interacting with our vast network of clients, friends, and industry providers. While we believe there is no equal substitute for in-person engagements, we have leveraged RedTorch Studios to continue delivering high-quality consulting services to our clients in an online environment. Recent engagements include:
-

Demand has never been higher as we all make adjustments to continue serving our clients, who in turn are learning to serve their customers in new ways on a variety of digital and physical channels.
We currently perform many in-person engagements but we are glad to offer these new channels where appropriate and where required.
