Social media is a powerful tool to reconnect with old business contacts. Start by updating your profile to reflect your current work and interests. Send personalized messages, mentioning shared experiences or expressing interest in their recent activities. Engage with their posts by liking, commenting, or sharing, which keeps you on their radar. Share your own updates, such as achievements or industry insights, to spark conversations. Join professional groups or forums to contribute to discussions they might notice. If appropriate, tag them in relevant posts or articles. Mutual connections can also help with introductions. Stay authentic, consistent, and patient to rebuild those connections effectively.

Social media can be used in seven strategic ways to connect to old clients, by: 1. posting content relevant to them to gain their attention. 2. By liking their posts on social media. 3. Commenting on their posts. 4. Reposting their posts with supporting comments. 5. Recommending them on posts of third parties. 6. Seeking former clients to endorse / recommend. 7. Be actively seen serving the common industry. I have also found when I share my holiday photos, award events, and fun posts, some old clients get in touch once again.
