About Robert Weitzel

Strategist - Change Maker - A self-starting, well-organized, content conjuring, elevator of business with over 30 years of consulting, editing, and production in advertising, communications, copywriting, graphic design, marketing, photography and video, along with extensive experience in leadership and business process improvement leveraging Enterprise Resource Planner (ERP) Systems, Association Management Software (ASM), Content Management Systems (CMS), Customer Relations Management (CRM) Systems, and Learning Management Systems (LMS).

Current Director portfolio includes Brand Management and Evolution, Communications and Content, Community and Public Relations, Customer and Member Experience, Marketing, Information Technology, Online Program and Training development. Key marketing strategist responsible for setting direction and management of go-to-market efforts ensuring alignment with strategic priorities. Lead annual budget planning for all corporate marketing activities to support goals for growth and sustainability. As a Professional Photographer, I've provided services for the likes of ESPN, Canadian Press, Tourism Saskatchewan, and have a long standing relationship with the University of Regina Athletic Department. My expertise in Adobe Creative Cloud products including InDesign, Photoshop, Lightroom, Dreamweaver, Premiere Pro, Muse and Edge Animate affords the ability not only to create, but also to deliver, messages on a variety of platforms. My career education and training started at Heinze Institute of Applied Computer Technology, a private college in Saskatoon, SK, where I completed a Computer Applications Specialist Diploma course as well as one in Graphic Design & Pre-Press. I was then hired to instruct the later. My time at WBM provided valuable training in the areas of IT Consulting, Feature/Benefit Solution Selling, and Customer Relationship Management. Organizations appreciative of creativity, versatility, and integrity find value in my services. I enjoy two-wheeled transportation, balls hit with sticks that fly far towards holes containing flags, something similar with flying discs, pickleball, and everything motorsports.
