About the Founder
Stethon Digital Marketing was founded by Al Heitzer, a performance marketer with over a decade of experience building data-driven growth systems across international markets.
By 2015, Al Heitzer was managing digital campaigns across Europe in multiple languages, developing omnichannel strategies for industries including eCommerce, tourism, nightlife, and live events. His work involved high-budget campaigns across Google, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube in highly competitive markets.
After 2020, Al Heitzer shifted his focus entirely to healthcare marketing after witnessing how clinics struggled with compliance, messaging, and sustainable patient acquisition.
