Reaching Back Out To Reconnect and Network

Hey All,

Just wondered if someone had any tips about reaching out to people who you haven't talked to in a very long time.  Sometimes years without an agenda just to rebuild and put them back into your network.  What are some things you say?  

I started testing Mogul Networking and I like it so far.


In one episode of the podcast it was mentioned to make a layoff list.  Who are the 15 people you would call if you got laid off from your job.  A lot of that list I haven't kept real close contact with.  It's not like we have talked in the last 30-60 days maybe even years.  Or starting at the bottom of your text message list.


What things would you say to reconnect besides just like a random text that says "Hey how have things been?"


Also and I suppose this would be similar things - once reconnected and you start reaching out on say a 2 week, 30 day, 60 day cycle whatever it may be.  What are some things to say then?  Obviously you can follow up on anything from the last time you talked and I have been putting that in my notes for Mogul Networking, but like a few of my in person interactions that I had last week I don't really have anything to be like "Hey how did X turn out?" which would be ideal.
