Send 20 highly personalized connection requests to potential clients or referral partners

Sending 20 highly personalized connection requests to genuine potential clients or referral partners is a real, targeted outreach effort, distinct from broad indiscriminate networking.

Genuine personalization dramatically improves connection acceptance and the real quality of the resulting relationship, versus generic mass requests.

How to do it

1. 1
   Identify 20 genuine, specific target individuals

   Real potential clients or referral partners, not a generic list.
2. 2
   Write a truly personalized note for each

   Real, specific reference to who they are or what you noticed, not a templated message with a name swapped in.
3. 3
   Follow up genuinely after connecting

   Real relationship-building beyond the initial connection.
