Hi Aly! Thanks for helping to troubleshoot. I message them over LinkedIn (if I'm unable to find a direct email address), I state in a sentence or two who I am, what we have in common, and the transition I am trying to make. And then I ask a specific question about their background or company. "I would love to learn more about xyz. Would you have 20 mins to chat sometime this week?"

Nice, that sounds like a great approach. Maybe consider splitting it into 2 parts. The initial connection on LinkedIn includes the commonality and a little bit about you since there is a character limit but then, after you've connected, you can send a more detailed message with more characters that provides additional information, elaborating on your situation and what you're looking for. It's a challenge to create that connection point in 299 characters in a LI connection request message so I'm wondering if that's part of the challenge in creating the know, like and trust factor.
