For trades, shops and service businesses in Stowmarket and the surrounding villages, being found on Google can be the difference between a full diary and a quiet month. Customers search, check reviews and call the businesses that look most trustworthy near the top of the page.

What clients say

  • I have nothing but praise for Clair and her team. I am a new business and did not even feature in a Google search and now I am on the first page! Clair's communication with me has kept me informed, and her professional approach to creating a strategy for me to move forward (and patience) has left me feeling confident and knowledgeable. I highly recommend The Handy Marketing Company and look forward to working on further projects for The Creative Desk with Clair.
