Apps such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter have made connecting with others easier than ever before. However, the ease of connections through social media comes with a price: genuine social connections are much more difficult.
Social capital is the cornerstone of genuine social connections. Social capital, recently described by McKinsey is “the presence of networks, relationships, shared norms, and trust among individuals, teams, and business leaders.” At The Endurance Group, we also consider social capital to be the potential for genuine social connections. Shared backgrounds such as growing up in the same hometown, attending the same alma mater, or volunteering with the same organization are all aspects of social capital. Many of these things are lost or simply not a factor in social media connections, as much of social media is focused around “likes” and interactions with posts, so the connections between people and groups never really take off.
Commonality aims to fix the lack of social capital and connections prevalent today. It promotes genuine connections rather than likes and comments. Commonality, created by The Endurance Group, uses your company’s social capital to find potential customers with whom genuine connections can be made, and gets your foot in the door.
