Rob Bare:
Digital Director and founder of R&B, Rob Bare has worked with technology and design, with a focus on the internet for 10 years. Combined with a proven entrepreneurial record and marketing degree, this makes Rob a leader in the digital services industry.
A passion for design and a mind for technology has earned him a place at the forefront of the digital services industry. Knowledge and experience of traditional marketing, information architecture, and internet marketing brings a unique combination of talent to R&B’s digital projects.
Rob’s knowledge of design & marketing is complemented by his understanding and experience in creating and building brands. He understands the power of building brands through culture and experiences – an approach which forms the foundation for creating strong brand recognition and loyalty. The final result is the establishment and growth of brands in which people believe, belong and which influence their behaviour.
Another facet of Rob’s professional life is culture, environment, arts and events. From 2000 to 2003 he coordinated the first large scale World Environment Day event for the Gold Coast & Hinterland Environment Council, and has earned the Silver and Golden Gecko Award for services to the environment. In 2004 Rob established the Gold Coast’s favourite live music venue, The SoundLounge, which continues to be an ongoing success today.
Born on the same day 5 years apart, Rob & Bel have an inherent synergy. Bel directs the design team at R&B bringing world class experience and knowledge, formed from nearly 20 years in the industry both in Australia and overseas. Rob directs the digital team and Account Direction, guiding clients on marketing, brand and digital strategies.
