"This was the first project The Barnhart Company executed for the City of Tucson, and they knocked it out of the park! I am impressed by the clarity of their communication, and the efficiency and quality of their work. We will certainly be looking to work with them again."
Kevin Burke
City of Tucson
"The Barnhart Co. was instrumental in helping the district launch an annual plan for social media. With guidance and expertise of TBCo., our five high schools learned how to brand their campus, increase digital engagement and improve video production. Having TBCo. as a thought partner in our marketing efforts, has given our staff the confidence and skills to connect meaningfully with our students, families, staff and community."
