I picked up a simple hack from Chaniqua (Nikki) Ivey & Richard Harris™’s Discovery Webinar which I thought was cool. It’s a quick and unconventional way you can build up some social capital with someone you want to start a relationship with…

👉🏽 Like or Comment on posts of theirs where they haven’t gotten much engagement.

This works especially well if the person you’re engaging with posts frequently.

For example, posts on their LinkedIn Company Page or a post of theirs that really resonated with you, but for some reason it didn’t get a lot of engagement from others.

Maybe it was a video or a photo (wtf LinkedIn 😀)

Imagine the adrenaline rush the author will get, especially if they work hard to post frequently.

If you genuinely enjoyed the post, adding your insights or challenge to it will carry social capital into your relationship.

I always learn something new when listening to Nikki & Richard, thank you both for the session!
