Why?
The inspiration:Lots of people not sure where to
start Agencies and consultants in the
region cannot service this need
on their own

When exactly?
Which time is best? 12:30 – 2:30pm
vs. 2pm – 4pm
![Page 15: Manchester Social Media Surgery Events: an Introduction](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060109/55522395b4c9054c668b4b4d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
2pm – 4pm works best as it allows people coming in from out of town to attend an afternoon event, work needs permitting.
12:30pm – 2:30pm implies it’s a working lunch event.
Lunch is *not* provided!
