1
Write the script that you want to use for your connection message that includes your Why and Call to Action
These are the two most crucial parts of the message. Why do you want to connect with the person? Maybe it’s because you admire the work they do. What do you want them to do? Connect with you, of course! Often times, if you don’t tell people what to do, they won’t do it
2
Be Bold!
How many times has someone come up to you and said, “Wow, we really need to catch up sometime?” And does sometime ever come? No! Don’t make it so you and your new “fan” become almost friends. Do everything you can so you end up meeting.
3
Remember: Be the shepherd, not the sheep
Everybody now! BE THE SHEPHERD, NOT THE SHEEP.
Here’s An Example
“Hi Carlos!
Thanks for connecting with me! I’m an aspiring screenwriter and I would like to interview you and find out how you got to where you are. Which works better for you to meet me on Skype or Zoom? Friday at 2 or 3 pm PT.
Thanks! Maddie”
Do you see that ever-important call to action? Instead of saying, “you should connect with me,” or “please connect with me,” you are providing a deadline: Friday at either 2 PM PT or 3 PM PT.

Not Seeing Success?
If you aren’t seeing success, then you need to look at your messaging technique and see what you could tweak.
Please let us know if you’re struggling on our Private LinkedIn Membership Community so we can help you. We’re here for you!
Also, if people don’t respond to you or do so unfavorably, don’t take it personally. It’s all a part of the journey and some people don’t know any better. Not all sheep take direction very well. That’s why they often get lost and/or eaten. Regardless, you’re LOVED and AMAZING! Here’s a link that’ll help with not taking things personally:
Celebrate your successes! If you send 100 messages, eat a cupcake! If you get a meeting, eat a cupcake! If you receive a positive response, consider a carrot. You’ve been eating a lot of cupcakes and your body is in pain. But cupcakes are generally how we roll. Treat yourself!
Share your best practices with our Private LinkedIn Membership Community to help show others what works and what doesn’t! We’re all in this together!
