The 24-Hour Rule for Networking Follow-Ups

Lucas and Luna break down the overlooked art of the networking follow-up, with a specific focus on the '24-hour rule' — why sending a note within a day of meeting someone can double your recall and open doors. They examine a 2025 study from Harvard Business School showing that follow-ups sent within 24 hours have a 47% higher response rate than those sent after 48 hours. Lucas shares his own system for writing follow-ups that are specific, not generic, and Luna pushes back on the idea that a quick 'great to meet you' is enough. They also discuss how to follow up when you don't have a clear ask, and the surprising power of following up months later.
