Walk, connect and network with those in line with your vision and goal. Because the people you surround yourself with can create a big influence in your life. They can either bring you down or raise you up. It’s better to have two right connections who are ready to work with you than having a thousand wrong connections that can bring you down and reduce you to a mediocre.

“I’d like to connect” – follow this up WITH WHY you want to connect and MOST SPECIFICALLY WHY the person you are wanting to connect should want to connect with you

Here’s an example of a note I may send when trying to reach someone I DO NOT ALREADY KNOW via LinkedIn:
Dear X,
SHARED CONTACT said you worked together at (former employer), I was curious to learn more about what you are working on (in your new role) as I am looking to BE VERY SPECIFIC ON YOUR GOAL/FOCUS and I’m thinking (we could help each other reach a common goal)? Might you be available for an intro phone call in the near future to discuss further?
You can reach me directly on my cell: 614-686-7220 or vial email (include address).
Kind regards, Melissa
