  SPEAKER_00: If you are great at what you do, your reputation is solid, and your network is full of impressive names, but none of it is helping you get closer to your business goals or professional aspirations, you are in the right place.
• 0:19
  SPEAKER_00: Welcome to the Social Capital Method.

  SPEAKER_00: I'm your host, Sabine Gideon.

  SPEAKER_00: This is the show for the high-performing professional, founder-led business owner, or consultant ready for the referrals, revenue, and recognition your work deserves.

  SPEAKER_00: Tune in each week for a breakdown of the strategies, systems, and identity level shifts behind sustainable relationship-driven growth.
• 0:41
  SPEAKER_00: Let's get into it.
• 1:04
  SPEAKER_00: But once you have been able to build your ecosystems and your engine, if you will, that's what allows your name, the work that you do, the impact that you make to show up in rooms when you're not there.
• 1:18
  SPEAKER_00: And so when all of the ecosystems and all of the gears are working, the goal is that the opportunities start to circulate naturally because the people that you've invested in, they're advocating for you when you're not there.
• 1:30
  SPEAKER_00: So this week, focus on choosing five relationships that you've built real trust with and ask yourself one of these three questions or all three.
• 1:38
  SPEAKER_00: Who can I champion this month?
• 1:40
  SPEAKER_00: Where can I add value without expectation?
• 1:43
  SPEAKER_00: And which introductions can I facilitate that align with both of our goals?
• 1:47
  SPEAKER_00: And so I have a weekly dashboard.
• 1:49
  SPEAKER_00: And part of my weekly dashboard is not only just reaching out to a specific number of people in my network just to check in, provide a resource, but I also have a goal around connecting.
• 2:01
  SPEAKER_00: So I my goal every week is to connect to people within my network.
• 2:06
  SPEAKER_00: Now that could be based on a conversation that I had recently, or if I remember that they asked for something or that they were looking to do something and someone pops into my mind, I will easily go ahead and send an introduction note either via email or via LinkedIn between the two people.
• 2:23
  SPEAKER_00: And so what I've noticed and what my clients experience too is as you do this consistently, you'll start to see your network, your ecosystems working for you.
