How do you reach prospects if the network is mostly "uh okay can't hurt to accept this connection I guess" type relationships?

Are your prospects mostly existing business relationships?

Multiple ways:

- Cold outreach (rapidly becoming impossible with the amount of unhinged automation pouring over LinkedIn)

- Engaging on the posts with my "takes", not selling anything, just genuinely helping / contributing

- Warm connections that I've made, for me it's attending work fairs / conferences then connecting on LinkedIn

- Posting as myself (the founder): AI-assisted engineering, industry takes, etc
