Your Network is Your Net Worth

What are Social Groups?
According to Wikipedia, “A social group can be defined as two or more people who interact with one another, share similar characteristics, and collectively have a sense of unity. However, other theorists disagree and are wary of definitions that stress the importance of interdependence or objective similarity.”
Two or more people who interact and share similar goals, objectives and work ethic, have got the power to accomplish their goals as a team. It’s possible to find great supporters, business partners and clients at social groups and events.
Every person you meet can either help your business grow or present the opportunity for you to share your advice, expertise, services, or products. Your greatest opportunities lie in social groups!
Now, while it is a priority to collaborate with people in your niche, we suggest stepping outside of your comfort zone to learn about different people’s industries, businesses, ideas and methods to spark your own ideas and expand your network even further. It’s important to step out of your comfort zone because you may just find some of your best connections at social events.
Here at Jha Briel allen, we host social group activities and networking events to connect small business owners for business growth, collaboration opportunities and network expansion.
Importance of Houston Social Groups for Small Businesses
Social groups are essential for small businesses to thrive, market and build relationships. Whether we network online or in person, relationship building is KEY to any small business.
Social groups offer access to people who can support your business with resources, finances, word-of-mouth promotion, and many other wonderful opportunities that a business relationship can bring.
As a member yourself of your favourite social groups, your impersonal skills become sharpened, helping you with your leadership, public relations and listening management. You’ll tend to discover a lot about your own strengths, weaknesses and areas of uncomfortability.
Learning from others help you learn even more about yourself personally and as a professional. For example, you might be good at coming up with unique ideas but not good at putting them into action.
The more social groups you attend, the more noticeable you’ll be. You can grow your reputation to highlight your accomplishments, areas of expertise and authority in your industry when attending events and maintaining the relationships made.
Networking is still one of the most authentic, original ways of marketing yourself, first and foremost, then your branding, business and expertise. That spotlight creates a vacuum for more partnerships and opportunities.
