I’M NOT SUGGESTING IT’S BAD, I’M ASKING IF YOU THINK OF HOW TO MAKE IT BETTER?
I’m often looking for ways to drive business to my companies, after all I own a Branding/Advertising Agency so that should be easy right? Well it’s not always that easy. So while I do all the same things you likely do, I have given myself a big advantage by creating a networking organization called “The Art of Active Networking” and in the 6 years of doing it I have gained very little business. But I have built amazing amount of “Social Capital”. This was not on purpose, it is simply who I am and I care about people, relationships and helping others to do better, and frankly I don’t get a lot in return business…and that’s ok!
Today I decided to look up the term “Social Capital” and here is what I got: "Social capital refers to the collective value of all 'social networks' [who people know] and the inclinations that arise from these networks to do things for each other ['norms of reciprocity’]." Well damn, by accident this is exactly what we do at my events across this country and in Canada! Who knew?
And I do believe I am going to now create a T-Shirt to sell that also reads: "NORMS OF RECIPROCITY!" So watch for that coming soon!
Now, come and build your Social Capital with a roomful of folks you don’t have to convince or sell to. My network rocks, you are a part of that network, so come get your Social Capital on, and let’s embrace our Norms of Reciprocity in one big connected room!
