What we do for businesses in Wigan

Wigan’s a serious logistics and manufacturing town – big distribution sites, food production, a strong trades base and a proud local identity. It’s a market where being found locally and looking credible online brings the enquiries in. We work with Wigan clients across B2B and trades, and we’re around 40 minutes down the road.

Wigan sits on the M6 with the warehousing and distribution to match – logistics, manufacturing and food production are a big part of the economy, alongside trades, retail and a fiercely loyal local market. Businesses do well here when they get found by the people nearby and back it up with a site that looks the part.

We’re a small team that does the technical work properly. Properly built sites that load fast and rank. Local SEO that gets your Google Business Profile into the map pack. Ad campaigns built around real enquiries. No account managers in the way – your senior contact stays with you throughout.

Marketing for businesses in Wigan

What Wigan businesses are working with

Wigan sits on the M6 with the warehousing and food production to match, alongside a strong trades base and a fiercely loyal local market.

Logistics and distribution

The motorway location built the sector. B2B buyers here shortlist online, so being findable and credible decides who gets asked to quote.

Food and manufacturing

Wigan has a real food-production heritage. That's B2B marketing with long lead times, where showing up early in the research pays.

Loyal local market

Wigan people back Wigan businesses. Local SEO and reviews turn that goodwill into enquiries from people who didn't already know you.

Why marketing matters for Wigan businesses

For Wigan service and trades businesses, local SEO is the highest-impact move. “Electrician Wigan” or “skip hire Leigh” – the map pack takes the clicks, and missing it hands the enquiries to whoever showed up instead.

Ranking there means the basics done properly: a complete, active Google Business Profile, accurate citations, real location pages and a steady flow of genuine reviews.

With a strong logistics, manufacturing and trades base and a big loyal local population, Wigan runs high on local intent. Do the fundamentals and you catch it.

Frequently asked questions

Are you actually based in Wigan?

No. We’re in Northwich, about 40 minutes away. Close enough to know the area properly, far enough that our prices stay sensible. Most Wigan clients care more about the value than the postcode.

Do you understand the Wigan market?

Yes. We’ve worked with logistics, manufacturing and trades businesses across the North West. We know the local competition and what actually drives enquiries in a town like Wigan.

Do you work with logistics and trades firms?

Yes. For logistics and trades it’s usually local SEO, a properly run Google Business Profile and a fast, credible website. That’s where the enquiries come from, so that’s where we focus.

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 Wigan 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.

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.

  • 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!
