Just sent my first five warm outreach messages on LinkedIn. Reached out to a former client, a couple of well-connected friends, and a developer I've known for years.
I kept them short and asked "do you know anyone?" instead of pitching.
Now the uncomfortable part: waiting. ๐
To anyone who is a perfectionist like me and is still tweaking their message for the fifth time.. just hit send. The polish isn't the point. ๐
