KK BOLD ANNOUNCES RETIREMENT OF CHAIRMAN WAYNE KRANZLER KK BOLD today announced the Nov. 28, 2014, retirement of Wayne Kranzler, chairman, from the Bismarck-based advertising agency. Kranzler’s advertising career spans more than 40 years and is marked by significant contributions to the success of corporate, government and political clients. The 1972 graduate of North Dakota State University got his start at Flint Advertising in Fargo, then moved to Bismarck to work for the North Dakota Wheat Commission. The following 36 years of his career have been dedicated to the agency now known as KK BOLD. “Wayne will be missed on many levels,” said LaRoy Kingsley, president. “As a business partner for 25 years, I appreciated his clear sense of right and wrong, compassion and dedication to his ideals and his craft. Wayne always treats people fairly and with respect, regardless of their role or position. In this day and age, that kind of class is fading. As an ad man, Wayne’s
insights into Wayne Kranzler consumer and voter trends are a thing of legend; his ability to take that knowledge and understanding and craft it into a powerful message is truly remarkable.”
Kranzler joined KK BOLD in 1978 as an account executive/writer, became director of account services in 1984 and a partner with Bob Saueressig in 1987. Kranzler and Kingsley assumed ownership of the agency in 1989. Starting with five employees, KK BOLD now employees a staff of about 35.
