In the fast-paced world of blockchain and meme tokens, getting your project noticed can feel like shouting into the void. But what if you could learn proven strategies to make your Solana-based meme token surge ahead of the pack? That's exactly what Mitch Lees, co-founder of Surge, is offering with his upcoming Startup Marketing Accelerator workshop in Manchester.

Posted on X (formerly Twitter) by @mitchlees, this event is tailored for Solana builders looking to level up their marketing game. Set for October 17 in Manchester, it's a hands-on session promising "less theory, more sauce" – meaning practical, actionable advice you can implement right away.

What's on the Agenda?

The workshop dives into key areas essential for any web3 project, especially meme tokens that thrive on virality and community engagement:

• Brand Building: Learn how to create a memorable identity for your meme token. In a sea of dog coins and frog memes, a strong brand helps you stand out and build a loyal following.

• Storytelling Frameworks: Meme tokens are all about narratives – think of how Pepe or Dogecoin captured imaginations. Mitch will share frameworks to craft compelling stories that resonate and spread organically.

• Growth + Distribution Systems: Discover systems to scale your audience. This includes leveraging social media, partnerships, and distribution channels to grow your token's reach without burning through your budget.

• Powerful GTMs (Go-To-Market Strategies)​: Get the lowdown on launching effectively. For meme tokens, a solid GTM can mean the difference between a quick pump and sustainable growth.

This isn't your typical lecture-style event. It's interactive, designed to arm you with the tools needed to cut through the noise in the web3 space.

Why This Matters for Meme Token Creators

Meme tokens on Solana have exploded in popularity, thanks to the blockchain's speed and low fees. Projects like Bonk or Samoyedcoin have shown how marketing can turn a fun idea into a multi-million-dollar phenomenon. But with competition heating up, creators need an edge. Events like this accelerator provide that by focusing on real-world tactics from industry pros like Mitch, who's built systems to scale web3 brands through Surge.

Superteam UK, a key player in fostering Solana talent in the region, is also tagged in the post, hinting at potential collaborations or support for attendees.
