Wendy Campbell is the Vice President of Sales at Jage Media, producers of MJ Unpacked, a distinctive event for cannabis brands and retailers. Though she has a long history of proven success managing sales and marketing for large companies across multiple industries, her leap into the cannabis industry is where her persistence, enthusiasm, and quick thinking have been able to shine. Previously serving as the National Sales Director at DOPE Magazine, Wendy played a crucial role in the sale of the company to High Times, a deal valued at more than $11M.
Before her promotion to Vice President of Sales, Wendy was the National Sales Director at Jage Media for more than two years, where she was an instrumental part of the company’s successful launch during a challenging time at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Her resilience and dedication helped push the company to new levels and simultaneously elevate other brands in the industry through her personable approach and fierce support – both of which are an integral part of her character.
Wendy has openly spoken about overcoming physical challenges, from working through a total hip replacement to celebrating life post LAP-Band surgery, sharing her successes and hardships to inspire others. She is the co-founder of weight loss surgery support and education group WLS Success Matters, author of Eat Your Way To Success And Learn How To Control Hunger – A Weight Loss Surgery Friendly Cookbook, and a dedicated weight loss surgery vlogger.
