Calie Salter

Managing Director (Co-founder)

Calie is passionate about all things psychology, marketing, web, social and research.

With a focus on innovation research (both quantitative and qualitative), Calie has developed cutting-edge consumer insight analyses across a variety of industries. Whilst at global market research firm TNS and local firm Raspberry Innovation Research and Strategy, Calie gained invaluable experience in branding, advertising concepts, and research studies for several blue chip FMCG clients.

Calie’s background in market research evolved into digital marketing, with a focus on creating (and then growing) websites that not only look good, but that work from psychological perspective. No wonder she co-founded Clickify in 2012.

Today, Calie oversees just about every aspect of Clickify’s operations, managing the entire team, as well as multiple clients and projects. She prides herself on delivering personalised customer service and is very much involved in the day-to-day of Clickify. Somehow though, she finds time to work on her own websites including Marketing.com.au.

The super organised Calie is a stickler for detail (you should see her draw straight lines on a whiteboard!), and is never one to quietly accept the status quo. Calie holds a Bachelor of Science (Psychology/Psycho-physiology).
