Your college may establish something about you.
Your law school classmates can actually open doors.
They're becoming general counsel, business owners, CEOs, bankers, government officials, entrepreneurs, investors, partners at other firms and corporate executives.
And unlike a random prospect, they already have something in common with you.
Don't send: “I'm practicing law now. Please keep me in mind for referrals.”
Send: “I saw what you're doing at Acme. I'd love to catch up and hear how things are going.”
Relationship first. Business later.
Do This This Week: Pick three law school classmates you haven't spoken to in years and reconnect.
