How to leverage this unique connection correctly?

Currently recruiting for 2020 IB SA positions. I have networked with a few alums at a bb group I am really interested in and have spoken to a VP in the group. Recently, it has come to my attention that a family member of mine might be a client of this VP soon. What should I do to take advantage of this situation/how much will it help me out? Would appreciate any input.
