Most people are terrible at building connections.
7 ways to craft DMs that get 100% responseđź§µ:
Before writing anything in an Online business, you need to ask “WHY”
Why are you DMing?
• To make like-minded friends.
• To spread the word in more people's minds.
• To leverage their audience for growth (this is how you grow as a beginner).
1. Picking the right person
Don't DM people you have nothing in common with.
Send DMs to people:
• You are inspired by.
• You wish to work with.
• You have mutual interests.
• You would want to be friends with.
2. Inspired Compliment.
Identify people's:
• Work.
• Content.
• Pictures.
• Current projects that you are truly inspired by.
Send it to them and tell them how it resonated with you by giving them your opinion and value.
Then wait till reciprocity kicks in.
3. Genuine Interest
Showing interest in their works makes you interesting.
Ask them about:
• Their goals.
• What they are building.
• What they do for work.
This is an opportunity to find out whether you can help them.
4. Slide in with Value.
This is the peak of a perfect DM.
Most people fail at the initial steps and never reach this point.
• Share a resource
• Show your interest in helping them.
• Connect them with someone else in your network.
5. Face-to-Face call.
Making an interaction call is priceless.
Nobody can see your personality, thoughts and Values through text.
Having a video conversation is the closest thing to reality.
6. Maintaining Connections
The job is not done after initial contact.
Remember their goals and look out for any content, resources, or people you can send their way.
Send it to them this way if you find something valuable or related.
7. The End Game.
If you follow all the points above, getting ignored is impossible when you ask for something.
It'll be easier to get them to:
• Offer advice.
• Retweet your tweets.
• Give you a testimonial.
• Throw opportunities your way.
Bonus Tips:
• Be transparent when you talk.
• They will never forget it if you start a call with a video recording.
• Don't connect with every creator in sight all in the name of "networking".
