Dear Jeffrey,
First of all, I am truly and sincerely sorry to be bothering you with yet one email.
However, I am very kindly and humbly wondering if you would be willing to make an email introduction
between Ried Hoffman and me? When I met Ried Hoffman last Sunday, he wanted me to email you to ask you to
introduce me to him. However, if you are unwilling to do this for me, I totally and fully understand. But, if this is
the case, may I very kindly ask you to let me know?
Once again THANK YOU for allowing me to tell Ried Hoffman that I am a friend of yours. I cannot enough
emphasise how much it meant to me. As always, if there is anything I can do to help you, please let me know.
I wish you a good weekend,
Yours,

Dear Jeffrey,
I hope that this email finds you well and that you are having a good weekend!
I was able to meet Ried Hoffman in person and I did let him know I am a friend of you (he told me that he had
received an email from you today). He asked me to ask you to introduce me to him, through an email, so that
Read Hoffman can set up a Skype meeting with me.
Thus, may I kindly ask, would you be willing to do this for me?

Dear Jeffrey,
Thank you for your reply. But foremost, thank you for permitting me to tell Reid Hoffman that I am a friend
of yours. It means much and I highly and very much appreciate it. I will let you know if I get the opportunity
to see him.
I wish you a good evening,
All my best,

Dear Jeffrey,

First of all, I hope that this email finds you well.
I have a vague memory that you know Marcus Wallenberg; that you drove through Sweden with him
many, many years ago? (I might be mistaken though). I will have dinner with him tomorrow night; if
you do know / knew him and if you want, I am happy to send him your regards.
Ried Hoffman writes in his book The Startup of You that he prefers individuals that hassle and are
persistent.
As you don't get anywhere in life if you are not determined, I feel that I have to ask, once again, if you
would be willing to ask Ried Hoffman if he would be willing to meet me, if only for a few minutes,
when he is visiting Oxford on Sunday (the 5th)? Needless to say, I will be available to meet him when
and where he prefers.
Jeffrey, I do apologize for asking a second time, but as Ried Hoffman also writes in his book, the answer
is not `no' until you have received an answer.
In his book, Hoffman furthermore stresses that he is interested in designing 'human ecosystem with
technology and finance'. What I (and my group) are trying to do is exactly this — we are trying to create
a social media platform in Africa (including games and quizzes) with the aim to use as a recruitment
database. Kenya and Rwanda is investing heavily in start-ups, are the second most connected region in
the world, yet have no dominant social media site at the same time as companies' reference recruitment
and skill shortages as one of their five major challenges when doing business in Africa.
Once again, I am sorry to be bothering you.
I truly mean it, if there is anything I can do for you, it would be a privilege to help.

Dear Jeffrey,
Thank you very much for your quick reply. I highly appreciate it.
I am well, thank you. I hope that also you are well (?)
I have one question, and if you have the time / would be willing to give me some advice, I would be
more than grateful. If not, please ignore the bellow.

Question:
I am considering spending the summer travelling to a few African countries to meet managers at
international companies in order to `collect' information of what talent/ branding/ recruitment
challenges they face. However, before making this investment, may I kindly ask, do you think this is
an idea worth while trying? I have great respect to you; any advice, recommendations, or comments,
would be highly, highly appreciated.
Furthermore, if you believe that this is an endeavour worth while trying, would you recommend me to
try to corporate with a larger company? (Either a recruitment company, branding company, or a social
media company?) Linkedln is not yet big in Africa.
Once again, I am sorry if I am bothering you.
Kind regards from a rainy Oxford!

Dear Jeffrey,
I hope that this email finds you well and that you have had a good week so far.
I have hesitated to reach out to you earlier (as I might be bothering you). However, if you have
the, and is willing to speak with me, may I call you at some point?
Also, may I ask, do you know Bob Wigley? (I am meeting him in a couple of weeks)
I am sorry if I am bothering you, and, as always, I do understand if you do not have the time to
speak with me.

Dear Jeffrey,
It was a true privilege and pleasure meeting you again last night; THANK YOU for interesting
conversations, your hospitality, and for inviting us.
I am sorry to bother you but I am kindly wondering if I may disturb you with two questions;
thus, would you have the time to either meet me or talk with me on Skype (or on the phone) at
any point? I do know that your time is precious and I of course understand if this is not
possible.
Once again, thank you for a very nice and memorable evening last night.
Yours sincerely,
please note
