Welcome the Social Coyote!

The people we see most often are usually the ones we become the closest with.
Not necessarily the people we have the most alignment with.
Consider the person I met at an Easter egg hunt yesterday who had perfect alignment with my interests. If I donโt put the effort in to see them again, the relationship will never form. Thereโs a little work for me to do.
In fact, I have a better chance of forming a stronger, closer relationship with my barista, because I see them every day.
Which is cool! I really like Rachel, and weโre pretty good friends now.
But the point is, frequency is really important, and heading out of our caves for an occasional event might not be enough for building a strong personal pack.
One strategy is to explore a few events until we find our โpeople,โ or a community that clicks with our interests, and then spend real time getting to know that group.
That said, we should never discount the magic of serendipity along the way.
But to build strong connections, we need a few things: time and repetition, a little vulnerability, and enough frequency to really get to know each other.
Howl yeah, letโs meet someone new this week!
- Jonah
Howl yeah Nick!

I met Nick a while back, before he launched avianu., through a mutual friend who said, โYou two need to connect. Nickโs basically running the Social Coyote, but for bands and music venues in San Diego.โ
We got to know each other over newsletters, growth strategies and San Diego events.
He told me that he was launching something new on the Founder's Hike, and said it was called avianu. I remember mispronouncing it on the spot. No surprise there, Iโm not exactly known for nailing names on the first try.
Since then, Iโve seen his business take off. He brings senior-level design to growing teams without the hiring drama. The work is excellent, and the model is as thoughtful as the design.
Iโm fired up to be teaming up with Nick as a Pack Partner. You should give him a howl for 2 reason: to surf and to level up your design.
Ahwoo-vianu!
