- ghaff 7y agoThat's not really a cold outreach though. LinkedIn can be OK if you can send a message of the form "We met at XYZ and talked about ABC..." Though I'll not infrequently miss LinkedIn messages simply because they go into a Gmail tab that I don't make a point of checking--and most of the LinkedIn messages I get are very ignorable. You can usually find the company email convention, as you say. (That specific example wouldn't work in my case though and, for larger companies, email collisions mean there are a fair number of non-standard addresses.)
