Networking for Industries Other than your Current Role

I am currently going in RE AM but have had interests in other areas. I've got a few calls scheduled (HF) to introduce myself and get my foot in the door if I plan on trying to make a career switch (not random outreach but friendly calls). Any advice on how to approach these conversations (structure, questions etc.)? Thanks for the help!
