Professional, practical and founder-led
Work directly with Tom.
I'm Tom, founder of Tom's Handy Solutions. I started my working life as a YTS Payroll Assistant in August 1991 and have gained experience across various sectors since then.
That experience covers administration, customer service, customer support, payroll, data processing, data entry, website management and technical support roles.
Tom's Handy Solutions was created to help local businesses save time, stay organised and maintain professional customer communication without the cost or commitment of employing additional staff.

Common questions
Quick answers before you book a free business support review.
Do I need to sign a long contract?
No. You can start with hourly support, a one-off task, the starter package or website support before deciding whether monthly support is right for you.
What businesses do you work with?

Can you help with website updates only?
Yes. Website updates and online support are available separately at £35/hr, including content changes, service updates, price changes, WordPress assistance and basic maintenance.
Can support hours cover different tasks?
Yes. Support can usually be used flexibly across agreed admin, organisation, customer communication, data entry and website-related work.

That depends on current availability and the type of work required. The free review is the best way to agree a practical starting point.
How is confidential information handled?
Business information, customer details, guest details and access credentials are handled carefully and only used for agreed support work.
