Apart from developing the site we’re in lots of conversations regarding new initiatives and with the help of Stuart Witts we came up with the idea of a speed helping event for May or June. The exact format isn’t decided but for now what we’d like to do is get together 8-10 social media consultants and around 20 small businesses for an evening of rapid fire getting and giving help. It’s going to be a great opportunity for small business owners who are wondering about social media to get some first hand advice from some of the UK’s leading experts on the subject, before deciding whether to take the plunge and get further involved.

We as a company can speak from personal experience about the value participating in the Twitter community has delivered so we’re keen to see more small businesses benefiting from this new and exciting opportunity. The event will be free and if anyone would like to register their interest in taking part they can mail us at speedhelping@cofacio.com or tweet us on @cofacio. We’ll be posting more details shortly here on the Cofacio blog.
