There are over 50 marketing companies in Blackpool, ranging in size from freelancers working at home, to established agencies working from serviced offices. For companies that are based in and around the town, we do advise choosing a local marketing agency rather than a marketing agency in Hull or even further away. There are tens of thousands of marketing companies in the UK to choose from, we believe local is best.
Working with a local agency is always better than one that is based in another part of the UK. There is a loyalty that comes with working with someone local. It may be due to they feel that you can drop in on them for a meeting or review. It could be that they feel they want to support another local business.
Working locally is becoming more popular for lots of companies these days. Brexit and detaching ourselves from Europe is partly to blame for this. But sourcing food locally, supporting cottage industry and working with local companies is in most of our minds.

Going with the cheapest agency will not give you the best campaign. Likewise you do not get what you pay for in marketing. The highest priced agency will not necessarily get you the best results.
