Robyn Schaub
Designer & Educator

Objective 
It's simple. Do what I love (i.e., crafting and writing...or writing about crafting!). Never stop learning. And most importantly, always be willing to pass along what I know to someone else.

Currently seeking opportunities in marketing, education and social media outreach with companies in the crafts industry to build brand awareness and enhance product knowledge among retailers, consumers and the media. 

Background
  • Over 17 years of experience in corporate communications and marketing, including strategic planning, brand positioning and promotion, and development of print and digital content. (Visit my LinkedIn profile for corporate resume.)
  • Over 9 years of experience in scrapbooking, cardmaking and papercrafts, including project creation, instruction, blogging and social media outreach.
Design Team Experience
I've created project samples for catalogs, trade shows, features on QVC and HSN and manufacturer websites. I've contributed ideas and input on new products in development and developed video tutorials demonstrating proper use of tools and showcasing new collections. I also designed projects with accompanying instruction sheets for retailers' use in classes and promote products and collections through my personal blog, Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter.
