Networking Follow-Up

Help me follow up after a networking interaction.

The interaction:
- Where we met: [EVENT/CONFERENCE/ONLINE/INTRODUCTION]
- Who I met: [NAME, TITLE, COMPANY]
- What we discussed: [KEY TOPICS OR SHARED INTERESTS]
- Any commitments made: [DID EITHER OF US PROMISE TO
  DO SOMETHING -- share a resource, make an introduction?]
- How long ago: [DAYS SINCE THE INTERACTION]

My goal: [WHAT I HOPE THIS CONNECTION LEADS TO -- advice,
job leads, mentorship, collaboration]

Write a follow-up message that:
1. References our specific conversation (proves I was
   paying attention)
2. Delivers on any commitments I made (or acknowledges
   their commitment)
3. Adds value -- shares something relevant to what we
   discussed (article, resource, introduction)
4. Keeps the door open for future interaction without
   being pushy
5. Is appropriate for the channel: [EMAIL/LINKEDIN/TEXT]
6. Is under 100 words (networking follow-ups should be brief)

Also suggest:
- A cadence for staying in touch (how often to reach out)
- Ideas for adding value to this relationship over time
- When and how to make a specific ask (if I have one)
