What we do for businesses in Macclesfield

Macclesfield built its name on silk and now has a serious pharmaceutical and science presence, a well-off commuter population and the Peak District on its doorstep. We’re a fellow Cheshire business, about half an hour away.

Marketing for businesses in Macclesfield

What Macclesfield businesses are working with

Silk-town heritage, a major science and pharma employer, and some of the more affluent postcodes in Cheshire.

Science and pharma

The pharmaceutical presence brings well-paid, technical B2B work and a supply chain around it. Credibility online is part of qualifying for that work.

An affluent catchment

Prestbury, Alderley Edge and the surrounding villages expect quality. Premium services sell well here, but the website has to justify the price.

Peak District on the doorstep

The edge of the Peak brings visitor trade to pubs, shops and outdoor businesses. That's a seasonal audience worth marketing to deliberately.

Why marketing matters for Macclesfield businesses

For Macclesfield businesses, the local market is affluent and discerning, which sounds like good news until you realise it raises the bar. A website that looks cheap loses work here that it might have won elsewhere.

Local search still decides who gets the call. “Accountant Macclesfield” or “landscaper Prestbury” and the map pack takes the clicks, especially on mobile.

The fundamentals do it: an active Google Business Profile, accurate citations, location pages with real substance and steady genuine reviews.

Frequently asked questions

Are you actually based in Macclesfield?

No. We’re in Northwich, Cheshire, about 30 minutes away. Most of the work is remote anyway, and our overheads stay lower than a firm with a Macclesfield office. Clients tend to prefer that.

Do you understand the Macclesfield market?

Yes. We know the local competition, the search patterns and what actually brings enquiries in Macclesfield rather than what looks good in a pitch deck.

Do you work with professional and technical firms?

Yes. For professional services and technical B2B it’s usually SEO, a fast credible website and content that earns trust before the first conversation. That’s a lot of what we do.

Do we need to meet in person?

No, and most clients prefer it that way. Everything runs over video, so a quick question doesn't sit in a queue waiting for someone to be in the same room as you. We're Northwich-based and we know the Macclesfield market, which matters far more to the work than where the meeting happens.

What's the smallest budget you'll work with?

Web design starts in the low thousands. Ongoing retainers start at a few hundred a month. We’ll be straight on the first call about whether it fits.

Who you'll actually be working with

We founded Cheshire Cat Marketing in 2016 after watching too many small businesses burn through agency budgets and end up with a slow site and a stack of invoices.

We work with businesses across the UK and into Finland and Sweden, and every bit of it is done in-house. Whoever you speak to first is the person doing the work, and they stay with you. Nobody is passing your messages to a separate team.

  • Five-star rated, every review 54 reviews across Google and Facebook. Not one of them below five stars.
  • Award-winning Shortlisted more times than we can neatly list, and we've taken a good few home.
  • Everything done in-house No freelancers, no white-label, nobody you've never met touching your account.
  • Outspoken, honest support We'll tell you when something won't work, even when it'd be easier to take the money.

I just want to say, the guys over at Cheshire Cat Marketing are amazing! I couldn’t have asked for a better bunch of people to constantly be in contact with. Whether it was checking up on me and my business or being open to listening to my ever changing ideas! Everything in between too! I would recommend them to anyone wanting, social media or anything marketing wise for your business!

I’ve just phoned and spoken to Rhi, who has been absolutely incredible! I phoned to cheekily ask for some advice, as I am fundraising for a charity event. She was incredible, offering advice, guidance and ideas. The support was truly incredible and has allowed me now to hopefully generate more publicity and support for the event I am supporting.I am in awe of her friendly disposition and her generosity of her experience.Her entire demeanour was approachable and supportive and offered a true unique perspective, whilst being situational and economically aware.So pleased, and touched to have had such a wonderful and postive interaction and would encourage anyone to use their services again.

The Cheshire Cat team are fantastic. They really care about understanding your business and doing a great job. Each time they send me some posts to approve I'm always thrilled with the results - and with 20+ years marketing experience, I'm not an easy person to please! We've seen our followers steadily grow whilst we've been working with them - recommended!
