LOOKING BACK, AND
ENJOYING THE VIEW
» » THE END OF THE YEAR PROVIDES A
natural marker to reflect on the last 12
months. The past year here at Clearview has
been one of many exciting developments,
including new editor Gemma, taking
over from Helen in May, followed by the
whole team heading over to Lockex 2018
– Security & Fire Safety (organised by our
sister publication The Locksmith Journal)
which not only provided the excuse to catch
up with old friends and meet some new
ones, but was also the perfect opportunity
to see the latest and greatest designs and
developments in hardware, security, smart
technology, and the ever-prevalent fire
safety upgrades and updates.
From a business point of view, the
Clearview Group has seen strong customer
retention rates across all publications, one
of which – The Locksmith Journal – will
be celebrating its 10-year anniversary in
January. As always everyone here at CV HQ
would like to thank all of our customers, and
readers, for another wonderful year, we wish
you a Merry Christmas, and all the very best
to you and your families for 2019.
