Profile

Hi, I'm Merry Robertson and I am a Professional Speaker and Marketing Consultant.

I started my career as Graphic Designer after gaining my Diploma in Graphic Design at the age of 17. I was approached by a respected advertising studio to work for them before I qualified, so decided to do both - finish my Diploma and begin my working career - a very busy time! I worked with some of Perth's most respected illustrators, so my love and knowledge of all things visual got off to a great start.

I migrated into the health, sport and recreation industry where I became a qualified fitness professional and added promotions, business management and events management to my experiences. This included spending some years working in regional WA where I gained an intimate knowledge of all the marketing issues and culture of our 'country cousins'. I gained my two children too! This country life was a wonderful and very insightful experience, and I welcome all opportunities to continue to work with regional centres.

Now settled in Perth for over 15 years, I have pursued further qualifications in Strategic Marketing, and also hold a Cert IV Business Sales, Cert IV Frontline Management and the Cert IV Workplace Trainer and Assessor. All this experience enabled me to become a part-time lecturer on the Diplomas in Business Marketing, Sales, Public Relations and Event Management for over 12 years.

I have indulged my love of training while operating my marketing consultancy - Jump Marketing - as a full time business for 13 years. I am also the WA state trainer for The Australian Salesmasters. I have enjoyed the privilege of training staff and managers from Dulux, Australian Geographic, Thai Airways and Halifax Vogel, amongst others.
