About Melissa
Hi, I’m Melissa – founder of Otway Marketing.
Living in the Otways inspires everything I do, and it felt only natural to name my business after the region that continues to shape and motivate me.
After a successful career in real estate, I transitioned into marketing during a time when many local businesses were navigating significant change. In my role as a Business Recovery Officer, I worked closely with business owners across the region and gained valuable insight into the real challenges they were facing.
What I saw wasn’t a lack of passion or commitment — it was often a lack of clarity, time, or simply knowing where to begin when it came to marketing. Digital platforms were evolving quickly, and many businesses needed practical guidance and trusted support to move forward with confidence.
That experience led to the creation of Otway Marketing in 2021. With a Diploma in Social Media Marketing and years of hands-on experience, I now proudly partner with 25+ local businesses across Colac and the Otways, helping them simplify their marketing and grow with clarity.
My mission is simple: to connect your business with the right audience, strengthen your online presence, and create marketing that truly works.
