RiseUp is a Google Premier Partner running paid search, social, SEO, creative, web builds and analytics for North West brands — from 3 Hardman Square in Spinningfields, backed by our Birmingham HQ.
Manchester is crowded with agencies, and plenty of them are decent, so we'll skip the patter. RiseUp's office is at 3 Hardman Square in Spinningfields; the head office and most of the delivery team sit at Alpha Tower in Birmingham. That split works in your favour: senior people you can meet in central Manchester, backed by a Google Premier Partner that has driven £750M+ in client revenue across 100+ brands since 2013.
Manchester made its money on trade, and the modern version is ecommerce. If you sell online we cover the whole revenue path in-house: Shopping and PMax, Meta and TikTok, Amazon, CRO and retention email, run as one plan against one revenue target.
See our services →Our neighbours at Hardman Square are law firms, banks and consultancies, and much of our work looks like theirs: considered purchases, long sales cycles, a pipeline to feed. We build lead-gen campaigns with tracking wired into your CRM, so you can see which pound produced which enquiry.
See our services →Straight answer: strategy, creative and data are produced at our Birmingham HQ, and 3 Hardman Square is where we meet, workshop and review with North West clients. You'll always know who does the work and where they sit.

03Rankings on Google plus presence in AI-generated answers. SEO & AI Search →
04Sponsored Products, Brands and DSP for marketplace sellers.
05Ad concepts, video and design turned around quickly, so tests never starve.
06Sites built to convert, then improved month on month by structured CRO testing.
07GA4, server-side tagging and dashboards that report profit, not proxies.
08Klaviyo programmes that raise repeat rates and customer lifetime value.
No agency opens a city office with an instant wall of local logos, and we won't fake one. What we can show is national work: Sotheby's International Realty, Micro Scooters, Chummy's Bakery, Jean Store and Pickfords, delivered by the same team a Manchester engagement gets.
3 Hardman Square sits in Spinningfields, a short walk west of Deansgate among the law firms and banks. Client kick-offs, workshops and quarterly reviews all happen here — and if travelling doesn't suit, we'll come to you.
Four stages, applied in the same order for every client. Senior strategists make the calls; our AI tooling does the heavy lifting underneath.
Before anyone touches a setting we go through your accounts, analytics and site to find what's leaking margin and what's underfunded.
AI-acceleratedYou get a ranked plan: the channels that move revenue this quarter, the ones that can wait, and what each should return.
Senior-ledCampaigns rebuilt, tracking corrected, creative refreshed weekly — every change logged against the metric it was meant to move.
AI testingBudget follows proof. Underperformers get cut early, and reporting stays tied to profit rather than platform vanity numbers.
AI insightsNothing here is improvised. This is the standard opening sequence for a new account, and the strategist responsible is named before you sign anything.
Read-only access, a benchmark of every live channel and agreement on the numbers that will define success. Free, and the findings are yours to keep.
Conversion tracking and analytics corrected first, because nothing downstream works without them. Obvious efficiency savings get banked early.
Priority channels restructured around intent and margin, with new creative entering test from week five.
Budget shifts to what's demonstrably working, and your first quarterly review puts results beside the week-one baseline — at Hardman Square if you like.

Yes. Our Manchester office is at 3 Hardman Square, 3 Hardman St, Manchester M3 3EL, in Spinningfields. It's where kick-offs, workshops and quarterly reviews happen for North West clients. Our head office is Alpha Tower in Birmingham, where most of the delivery team sits, and we're upfront about that split.
Eight, all in-house: paid search (PPC), paid social, SEO with AI optimisation, Amazon Ads, creative production, web design with CRO, analytics and email automation. Most Manchester clients start with the channel that hurts most, then add the rest once the first one is paying for itself.
No. From Hardman Square we look after clients across Salford, Trafford, Stockport and the rest of Greater Manchester, and the wider agency runs national and international accounts from Birmingham. Most of the brands on our books trade UK-wide; the Manchester office exists so North West clients get face time without the motorway.
We are. Premier Partner sits at the top of Google's partner programme, and the standard applies to every account here, Manchester included. Alongside it: two Netty Awards wins from 2025, a UK Paid Media Awards 2026 finalist place and a 4.9/5 score on Google.
Honestly: we would sooner show you genuine national results than dress anything up as local. Sotheby's International Realty, Micro Scooters, Pickfords and Jean Store are real case studies from this team, and none of them is a Manchester company. Judge us on that work; the same people would be running yours.
The form above is quickest, or reach us on 0330 678 1100 and info@riseup.agency. Step one is a free review of your existing marketing, from which you'll get our view on what to change, roughly what it should return and whether we suit each other. No contract is involved at that stage.
Those two bring in most of the enquiries we get from Manchester firms, and each has a dedicated page covering method, team and proof in full.
One honest conversation, no obligation. We'll show you where the money is leaking and what we'd do about it — then you decide.
