What are some examples of social capital?
When a group of neighbors informally keep an eye on one another's
homes, that's social capital in action. When a tightly knit community
of Hassidic Jews trade diamonds without having to test each gem
for purity, that's social capital in action. Barn-raising on the
frontier was social capital in action, and so too are e-mail exchanges
among members of a cancer support group. Social capital can be found
in friendship networks, neighborhoods, churches, schools, bridge
clubs, civic associations, and even bars. The motto in Cheers "where
everybody knows your name" captures one important aspect of
social capital.

Do you need more
time to do what it is that makes you valued in your industry?
Do you need a way to build more of a contact base without
sacrificing time needed to run your business or focus on your
financial capital? Would you agree that financial capital
sometimes revolves around the amount of clients, customers,
or “social” capital you have? It has been proven
that building, managing, and creating social capital leads
to financial capital. It’s not what you know, but who
you know. There may be someone you’ve been wanting to
work with, someone you know would benefit your company in
some way. More than half of my business is partnering businesses
and clients to build their wealth. I help you to build and
manage social capital which successfully leads to the creation
of financial capital.
