How having only a small community is a good thing

Monty Python were right, we’ve got to at least try to see the bright side in each situation we find ourselves in. This principle must be applied to all aspects of life be it business or private as it will define who we are, how we are perceived by others and in the end its what differentiates the successful from the crowd – well, its one aspect of that.

A positive side can be found in almost anything. How about a low number followers and connections on social media platforms? Is there anything good about that, too?

Yes there is!

Many of my clients at some point complain about not having the fan-base they meant to built or at least are concerned about the numbers not growing fast enough.

But really, focusing on the positive, this is an invitation! Its an invitation to care about the connections we already have with even more passion and to an extent that will simply blow their minds.

With only three customers instead of the hundreds we wish for it is wrong to wine about what we don’t have and risk loosing the customers we already have for the bad attitude.

Instead, if we focus all our energy on satisfying those three people willing to engage with us they will likely refer our businesses to their friends, their family, their colleges and probably spread the word online. There is enormous power in that!

Who knows, they might have thousands of people to share the positive experience we created for them with in their online networks.

The lesson to learn is to be grateful and to stay positive.
