01 / Why Manchester is different
A city of neighbourhoods. Searched one street at a time.
Manchester is one of the fastest-growing cities in the UK, and people here rarely search for “Manchester” on its own. They look for brunch in the Northern Quarter, a hotel near Deansgate or a cocktail bar in Ancoats. Each of those is its own contest, with its own competitors.
The city centre is crowded. Around 85,000 people now live within a mile of Piccadilly Gardens, and hundreds of venues compete for their attention. Altrincham, Stockport and Didsbury play by different rules. Fewer rivals, and customers who are ready to book.
Marketing planned around Manchester
Every channel follows the city's calendar: match days at the Etihad and Old Trafford, gigs at Co-op Live and the AO Arena, conferences at Manchester Central and the student calendar. Search, social and ads then work together instead of chasing the same customer.
We know the difference between a city-centre crowd and a Didsbury regular, and we plan each channel for both.
