Reconnecting with Old Friends: How to Ask for a Show on MySpace

[kaseydee]

I have some high school & college friends who have found me on myspace & added me as a friend. I don't know how to call them to ask them about hosting a show nor do I have their mail address to send them a card. I can only message them through myspace's private email system. My question is how would you go about wording a message to someone you haven't seen or talked to in a long time about hosting a show with you?

I would approach it in a post catching up on what is new in your life. Tell them about your great new business and say that you are looking for people who would be interested in helping to get you business off the ground and would they like to?

That approach worked for me - had a catalog show in Seattle (I'm in Illinois) with someone who found me....and I remember not liking her and her clique at all in HS. LOL

Check out the Business Guide. They have some real good verbage you can use... tweak it to fit your situation.

Remember that if you get a chance to talk to her... show a lot of interest in what she is doing.... she's bound to ask you, too! Then... the door swings wide open and the business guide comes in handy!!!

Good luck!

Maybe talk about how much you would like to see her, where she lives and meet her friends and help her get free stuff. I would try to approach it as a "I want to get back in touch with you" thing. Good luck.

Instead of asking her if she'd like to host a show for you, you can tell her how you would love to do a show for her. (It would be a fun way to catch up.)
