Rob Otley (Proprietor) was born in Loughborough, East Midlands and moved with his family to the bonny hills of Scotland.  He was raised on the snow capped hills farming pedigree cattle and sheep.  Rob quickly learned that hill farming wasn’t for him and after studying agriculture at Seale-Hayne in Newton Abbot, Devon (thinking that farming as far away as possible from the cold, dark, yet beautiful ruggedness of the Scottish mountains may change his mind) he realized that farming was absolutely, most definitely not for him - so he went into the media world with high expectations.

He progressed his career from sales to management and to divisional head level within the country’s largest media houses dealing with national and international, multi-million and multi-billion pound turnover businesses. 

Rob has also traveled Africa and developed and lectured an international sales and business development course at Africa University, Zimbabwe which is now an established part of their business and management curriculum.

After watching many episodes of “Dragon’s Den”, he caught the entrepreneurial bug and set up Mister Media to help and develop not so well known local business brands into market leaders within their regions.

Rob’s philosophy in life and business (one of the commonest and most important business statements and yet is one of the most ignored) is “KISS” – "Keep It Simple St***d!"  This simple instruction has led to the success of many of the world's most famous brands and therefore Mister Media applies this in every operational aspect.

Throughout his career Rob has generated over £50 million pounds worth of increased sales revenue for his clients - local, national and international.  Let Mister Media do the same for your business!

Rob has also gone into partnership with David Jones to form Bright Blue Creative Design, one of the UK's first completely carbon neutral design and print service - details can be found here.
