Local / Waltham Cross and Cheshunt
Waltham Cross and Cheshunt
Blank Canvas Media is based in Waltham Cross. This page explains how we help businesses in Waltham Cross, Cheshunt and the towns around them win more local customers.
Local customers
cross borders
Waltham Cross sits on the southern edge of Hertfordshire. Enfield and the rest of north London are to the south, Waltham Abbey and Essex are just across the Lee Valley, and Cheshunt and Hoddesdon are to the north. Your customers do not stop at the county line, so your marketing should not either.
For most local businesses that means planning around how far people will travel to you, or how far you will travel to them, rather than around council or county boundaries.
What we do for
local businesses
- Meta Ads with a tight radius. Facebook and Instagram adverts shown to people within the distance your customers really travel, built around one clear local offer.
- Google Ads for local searches. Adverts for the moment people search for what you do, such as a service plus a town name, or “near me”.
- Ad creative that looks local. Adverts that name the area and show your real work, so people can see you are nearby and not a national chain.
- A joined-up plan. Growth marketing that follows a customer from first seeing your advert to booking, buying and coming back.
Three checks
before you spend
1. Know your real area. Look at your recent customers and note their town or postcode district. That is the area your adverts should cover first, not a circle drawn on a map by guesswork.
2. Send people somewhere that works. Point local adverts at a page or booking form that names your area and makes the next step obvious. A good advert sent to a confusing page wastes the click.
3. Name the place. A headline that mentions Cheshunt or Waltham Cross tells people you are local in a way a stock photo cannot, and it costs nothing extra.

Questions
answered
Do you only work with businesses in Waltham Cross?
No. Blank Canvas Media is based in Waltham Cross and works with businesses of any size across the UK. Local businesses get an agency that is based in the same area as their customers.
Can Meta Ads be shown only to people in Waltham Cross and Cheshunt?
Yes. Meta Ads can be shown to people within a chosen distance of a town or postcode, or in a list of chosen places. A very small area limits how many people can see your adverts, so the distance is usually set by how far your customers travel.
Are Google Ads or Meta Ads better for a local business?
Google Ads usually suit services people search for when they need them, such as repairs or appointments. Meta Ads suit businesses that are easy to show, such as food, beauty and events. Our guide to Meta Ads vs Google Ads explains how to choose.
