Favorite tip for contacting busy people

My favorite technique for contacting really busy people is to message them simultaneously via multiple mediums. For example, email and Twitter make a great combo. Linkedin is good re-enforcement as well.

The content of your messages doesn’t need to be the same, so you can send a core message by email and follow with unrelated reply on Twitter. They key is recognition via closely-spaced repetition as these people may be so busy that you literally have to earn their attention. 

Similarly, getting intros from 2-3 directions at once works magic and with some people is the only way you’ll get their attention. 

Have fun playing the game.
