I finally had a chance to see the hottest movie of the year (Social Network) and was amazed not just by the great acting, great screenplay but amazed at how valuable the Facebook company has become by doing the same thing we do everyday at Signature Community. Give people at opportunity to be part of a community!
A few weeks ago I wrote a blog about the movie Wall Street 2 and how it sort of missed its marked and was really about a time that is now behind us (see below) whereas the original Wall Street movie from the 90s started an era. Well Social Network seems to be the new Wall Street. Although it overly glamorizes the start up business and uses a 1 in a billion example of success what it does show is that in today's world if you can create a product that everyone feels a deep desire to be part of (Sense of community is one of the principle needs of people, in some cases more important than food or sex) you can have millions of followers. In less then 10 years Facebook has more that 500 million members and is one of the biggest success stories of our generation.
At Signature Community we understand people need/desire for community. We do everything we can at Signature to make our residents feel part of the community not like a tenant. We have programs that promote resident involvement, newsletters to keep our residents informed and even a helping hand program to give some of our less fortunate a leg up in this brutal economy. We continue everyday to try to make Singnature a bigger and bigger part of our residents lives and their sense of community. We hope that if you have any ideas that will promote the community aspects of life at Signature Community please share them with us at ideas@asignaturcommunity.com.
Thanks for helping to make Signature Community the greatest living social network.
Nick
