“Use Networking As Your In”

Hi Bob,

I hope this message finds you and your business doing well.

One of the things I love about LinkedIn, in particular, is the ability to easily meet and connect with interesting people to share connections or ideas. With that in mind, I thought this might be an appropriate time to learn a little more about each other and our mutual businesses.

Would you have time for a brief phone call next week? How about Wednesday, June 5 between 2-4 pm?

I look forward to hearing from you. Have a great day!

Regards,

Craig

We’ve connected here on LinkedIn for a while but don’t really know each other.

Would you be open to a call or maybe grabbing a coffee sometime soon? Just to get to know about each other’s businesses and see how we might be able to help each other.

Thanks,

Carl
