Andrea Merrill

Andrea Merrill, M.S. Psychology, is a straight-talking TED talk strategist and speaker coach who cuts through the noise to help entrepreneurs craft talks that actually convert. With her master's degree in the Science of Psychology of Applied Behavioral Analysis, Andrea doesn't just understand what makes a good speech—she knows exactly what makes audiences take action.

Her background sets her apart in the speaking industry. As a former behavior and trauma therapist for high-profile cases, Andrea has worked with both victims and perpetrators, even assisting in dismantling two human trafficking rings. This unique perspective allows her to see beneath surface-level communication to the psychological triggers that drive real connection.

Andrea possesses an uncanny ability to envision her clients' potential before they see it themselves. Using her Gallup strengths and psychology-driven approach to marketing and sales, she intuitively understands how audiences think, feel, and act when making decisions. This translates into talks that don't just fill time—they fill her clients' business pipelines.

As a mother of five, Andrea brings both efficiency and authenticity to her work. She doesn't believe in unnecessary steps or fluffy advice—she delivers exactly what works, helping speakers command attention, create lasting impact, and turn every opportunity into a business growth tool.

Her clients don't just inform their audiences; they influence them, forming connections that drive tangible results. Andrea transforms speakers from informative to influential, crafting experiences that move people to their core and, more importantly, to action.
