What Daisy McAndrew's clients say
"Got to be said that Daisy McAndrew is a fabulous conference host. Warm, discursive, friendly, professional."
"She was fantastic. She stepped in a couple of times when the moderator hesitated; this really helped it not go flat etc. She'd done loads of research as well..."
"Daisy supported an event of Samsung's back in the summer of 2013 & absolutely hit the mark in her ability to put an audience at ease, share knowledge, & professionally introduce various speakers. Her wit & charm became the glue that brought all the components of the event together & as a result the response we got from our customers was excellent. We were so impressed with Daisy's performance that we had no hesitation in asking her to support the next iteration of the event the following summer. If you need a trusted & experienced pair of hands that is going to maximise your brand's presence & offering, look no further than Daisy."
"Daisy has chaired two of our national conferences and has been a superb asset to each event. She is a delight to work with, can think on her feet and has the audience gripped throughout. Her impressive broadcasting background gives her immense political and economic knowledge through which she can add great input to live discussions and Q&A sessions. She is professional, reliable, upbeat and a great asset to any corporate event. 'Daisy was wonderful! Smart, patient, thoughtful and very charismatic."
"Daisy hosted our ThinkFM 2015 Conference and made it an amazing success. The feedback we have received from delegates and partners was positively overwhelming and her support enabled us to create a stimulating and vibrant event... On the day the event hit the top ten on Twitter and started trending in the morning with over 3000 tweets and reaching nearly 850,000. This simply would not have been possible without her support.' - British Institute for Facilities Management'Daisy's performance, professionalism and warm personality ensured that the facilitation played an important and influential part of the whole day. We had great delegate feedback regarding her role and the extent to which she managed to control proceedings. We can't thank her enough, she carried it all off in such style. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her as a facilitator."
"We have employed (on behalf of clients) Daisy's services as a Conference Moderator on many occasions over the past few years. Her grasp of the issues being discussed and her energy on stage, ensure that the events we organise are informative, engaging and entertaining. As a seasoned journalist, she can interview senior professionals and celebrities with ease and just the right degree of humour, and she is equally at home with a pre-prepared script or in an ad-lib situation. Would we work with her again? Yes, absolutely. She is happy to mingle with delegates socially; she is relaxed and easy to work with; utterly reliable and a consummate professional."
"It's great to work with Daisy as she makes my day so much easier than it would be otherwise! Her grasp of the issues and energy on stage made this year's event informative, engaging and entertaining too."
