Standing Out When Sending Connection Request

[Liam Bennett]

I want to stand out when sending my connection request. High profile people usually don't accept connection request from people they don't recognize so I want to stand out.

Personalize your message. Mention something specific about the person or content so it shows that you've done you research and it's not just a generic request.

 

[Mickey Molad]

Connection requests are more likely to be accepted if there is something in common, whether it’s a shared professional interest, industry, group, or cause. People are more likely to connect with those they have a clear mutual interest with.

If you have mutual connections, shared interests, or attended the same event, mention it in the message. This establishes rapport and a reason for connecting.
