Cheshire-based agency working with Stockport SMEs across creative, tech, professional services and retail. 30 minutes away. Properly built sites, SEO that works, 30 days notice.
A few of the many businesses we've worked with, big and small
Stockport’s had a proper glow-up – a regenerating town centre, a growing creative and tech scene, and a business base that runs from established professional services to new studios and startups. It sits right on Manchester’s edge but keeps its own identity. We work with Stockport clients across services and creative, and we’re about half an hour away.
Stockport’s one of the more interesting markets in the North West right now. The town centre regeneration has pulled in creative studios, tech firms and independents, on top of a solid base of professional services, manufacturing and retail. It’s close enough to Manchester to compete for the same clients, which makes standing out online matter more, not less.
We’re a small team that does the technical work properly. Properly built sites that load fast and rank. Local SEO that gets you into the map pack. Ad campaigns built around enquiries. No account managers in the way – your senior contact stays with you throughout.
Stockport's regeneration pulled in creative studios, tech firms and independents, on top of an established base of professional services and manufacturing.
The Old Town and the regeneration changed who's trading here and where people go. Newer businesses win by being findable before they're known.
Stockport firms chase the same clients as Manchester agencies. Ranking locally puts you in front of people who'd rather not deal with a city-centre firm.
A lot of studios and independents here sell on craft. The website has to show the work properly and load fast doing it.
Pick what you need or hand the whole thing over. Most local businesses we work with use two or three services together.
Properly built WordPress, WooCommerce, Shopify and Magento. No page builders. Properly fast. The kind of site Core Web Vitals actually likes.

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.

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!
