Raoul
Pascual is the driving force behind WYNK Marketing. He is a
multi-talented award winning artist and has over 30 years of
experience in the Graphic design business. He has produced brochures,
newsletters, logos, stationeries, newspapers & magazines,
posters, record jackets, set designs, and books for varied clientele
like the Recording Academy where he designed the 42nd
GRAMMY Awards logo that was telecast all over the world.
Raoul has dabbled in web technology since the
inception of the internet --- designing and programming web
sites containing shopping carts, member password protected areas
and other interactive B2B features. He does web animation and
installed complex multi-media sites with streaming video clips
and sound clips.
In spite of his hi-tech abilities, he still
loves old fashioned creative pastimes like pen and ink sketches
and oil painting. He does political cartoons and caricatures.
Once he was commissioned to draw detailed caricatures of all
the participants of an international Motorola convention.
One of his favorite pastimes is to do caricatures
of children every year during the Halloween fairs in 2 different
churches. And it's all for charity --- just another way Raoul
gives back to the community which he feels he has been blessed
with.
Ever since he was young, Raoul has always been
interested in marketing. While others raided the refrigerators
during TV commercial breaks, Raoul would stay glued to the set
and absorb the sights and sounds of the ads. He is fascintated
by the purchasing habits of consumers.
He has a knack for bringing opportunities and
people together. His introduction of one wholesaler to a manufacturing
client resulted in the sale of the client's total US inventory.
Some of WYNK's marketing success stories can be seen in WYNK's
case studies.

Raoul started WYNK Marketing in 2003 with two
of his friends. His partners have since moved on to other ventures
but Raoul has stayed with WYNK because he enjoys his work and
feels this is his calling.
Like his father and grandfather before him,
he enjoys the challenge of being a business owner. Early on
in his career he was the Operations Manager of their family
business --- a marble and limestone mining company where he
developed and maintained the payroll for over 200 employees.
He admits that was quite a detour from his artistic passion.
But it was through this experience that Raoul developed his
computer programming skills.
Raoul's focus for WYNK is embodied in our mission
statement which is to make his clients and and his employees
successful.
