Marketing for Crawley businesses
Crawley's economy has grown up alongside Gatwick Airport, which lies within the borough and is one of the largest employers in the South East. Airlines, ground handlers, cargo agents, aircraft maintenance firms, hotels, car parking operators and travel companies cluster around it, and Virgin Atlantic has its head office in the town.
Airport-related consumer services, such as parking, transfers and hotels, face some of the most price-compared searches in the region. What helps:
- Google Search campaigns focused on high intent terms, with bookings tracked as conversions and value-based bidding where data allows
- Fast mobile landing pages with clear prices
- Branded search protection and email to past customers before holiday seasons
B2B aviation suppliers and maintenance firms reach airlines and operators through LinkedIn and specific search terms, and run recruitment campaigns for engineers and ground staff.
Manor Royal Business District, between the town centre and the airport, is one of the largest business parks in the South East. It holds manufacturers, engineering and electronics firms, pharmaceutical and medical technology companies, distribution centres and trade counters, along with offices of national and international companies including Thales. Manufacturers use search ads on capabilities and LinkedIn for buyers. Medical technology firms work under promotional rules, so their paid activity is mostly aimed at professionals and recruitment, with all copy approved by their regulatory team.
The town's neighbourhoods were each built with their own parade of shops, and County Mall and Queens Square serve the centre. Local retailers, salons and takeaways do best with Facebook, Instagram and tight radius ads. The M23 and the Brighton Main Line mean many trades and service businesses here cover a wide area from Horsham to Redhill, so location targeting should match the area they actually serve.
