Our Story

The Handbook Club is a brand and communications agency illuminating brands and stories to shine around the world.

We leverage storytelling to cultivate meaningful impact for diverse audiences by driving dynamic communication solutions so change is fluid.

Let us help you shine even brighter!

Life doesn’t come with a handbook. We’re all do our best every day - collecting the good advice and discarding the troublesome habits. With each passing day, we curate our own handbook about who we are, what we do, what we enjoy, how we communicate and problem solve, and how we love and express ourselves.

The best stories are ones expressed with authenticity and learnings, and shared stories are what propel us forward in this human experience. Through our collective experiences and expertise, we aspire to bring more love and light by helping others to achieve their dreams and business goals. We would be delighted to work with you to illuminate your brand or story.

Lisa Vailencour is the founder of The Handbook Club, and has been a brand & communications strategist and leader in the technology industry for over 20 years. The Mom Handbook is her first book, written for her daughters and you. Lisa is a great listener and storyteller with a big heart who believes in others.

Lisa was born and raised in Washington, and is the only person in her family to graduate college. She holds a master’s in strategic communications from Washington State University and a bachelors in leadership and organizational studies from Antioch University Seattle. When not writing, she is likely deadlifting, running, swimming, cooking, singing in her car, or playing with kids.

Publishing her first book is just the beginning of another lifelong dream. Lisa hopes you’ll join her on this new journey of helping others achieve their dreams!
