Rod and the team at ClearlySo.com are doing something utterly brilliant. Social business is undeniably going to be a critical element of the fabric of society in the 21st century. ClearlySo's insight and contribution is to accelerate the growth of Social Business by connecting and providing service to the people, companies and funders involved in this nascent arena. ClearlySo and its community will - for the good of us all - flourish.

ClearlySo is an idea whose time has come—in fact, it’s overdue! We have tremendous confidence in the team at ClearlySo and have known Rod Schwartz for many years. As our Chairman he has brought energy and a pragmatic approach to the problems of our young social business—we have also seen their approach work wonders for others.

We have worked with the ClearlySo team over the past few years and they bring a degree of professionalism and dedication to the sector, as well as commercial disciplines, which have been really welcome and invigorating.

Gordon Roddick

The launch of ClearlySo.com comes at a very appropriate time. Positive investment is going to be a cornerstone in some sort of recovery process and ClearlySo.com will grow to be an important player in that arena. We have also known Rod Schwartz and the team for many years.

Jenny Tunley Price

I have been on what, at times, seemed like a fruitless search for what I consider to be fairly straightforward information about how my planned organisation should be structured. I happened upon ClearlySo and within seconds of my calling, they gave me clear, precise and sensible advice and provided all the answers I had been searching for. Now I can, at last, get this business up and running. Thank you Tom!
