When networking don’t send a canned invite
Most social networking sites allow you to send an invite like this.
Dear Joe Bloe,
I’d like to add you to my LinkedIn network.
Don’t use it! It is a big turn off to most people. It is really impersonal. It’s a lot better to send a personal email. Also send a reminder of how you know the person you’re trying to connect with. That will make a better first impression than sending a canned invite.
