Is there any etiquette left on social media?
Maybe I am old school...but I really think if you reach out to someone to make a colleague request on Bigger Pockets that you should make an introduction...send a message with your request and maybe suggest why you would like to connect? At the very least you should have had some dialogue going in a forum post. Otherwise it is just SPAM! And BIG TIP for anyone that does not have a profile picture...please consider adding one as most of us on here do not want to be colleagues with just a name. And please please please do not reach out in pure solicitation (again SPAM). Many of us have enough of that and I have always viewed Bigger Pockets as a place for learning, education, networking, and collaboration. If we develop a relationship through any of those angles then feel free to make your pitch if it is relevant. <Ok, off my soapbox>
