How The Handy Network helps
Clair leads the strategy herself. When the plan calls for specialist skills, such as a website rebuild, paid advertising or photography, she brings in the right people from the Network and keeps everything joined up.

Led by Clair Bryant CFCIM
Clair is a Chartered Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Marketing, with over 25 years in marketing. She can advise on and manage every part of your marketing, which is how she knows exactly which specialists to bring in from the Network, and how to get the best from them.
The Handy Marketing Company were recommended to me when we were struggling to recruit. Clair was a delight to work with, knowledgeable, personable, enthusiastic and responsive. Trying to keep things going when you're a team member down can be tough but Clair made it as easy as possible, providing flexibility and a guiding hand as to how to spend our limited budget wisely. She also helped to induct and support the new recruit providing continuity and maintaining quality. I would not hesitate to recommend her and she remains firmly in my contacts should I find myself in the same situation again or have the budget to involve her in specific projects. Everyone needs a Clair in their life.
