How to use it

  1. Use the person's correct name and mention one real connection to their work.
  2. Ask one answerable question or request a brief conversation; make it easy for them to decline.
  3. Do not imply you know the person or have a referral if you do not.
  4. If they reply, respect their time and follow up with a specific thank-you.
