Networking Template for Non-alum

Does anyone have a template for reaching out to people who went to other schools on LinkedIn? My hit rate with alumni is pretty solid; they're usually more than happy to help, but many of the firms I'm interested in have no alumni.

Whadup Broseph,

I'm a lil chimp trying to make it big. I see frrm your profile that you had this career trajectory that seems in line with what I want to do. (Find something of interest or that you can relate to) You dig? How about I get you number and I hit you so we can get to know each other and maybe you can give me some pro advice that you've learned.

With Love

Est autem adipisci nam dolorem debitis id. Atque quae fuga quasi reiciendis aliquid quae. Soluta quasi exercitationem sit iste.

Voluptatem quidem ratione rerum animi inventore veniam ea esse. Cumque eligendi cupiditate placeat expedita. Sequi quia non exercitationem vero dolor quibusdam. Ut natus eius in perferendis similique. Consequatur nam odio vel consequatur facilis. Voluptatem minus est aperiam ullam perferendis.

Eius ab esse odit qui ullam eos aut quam. Rem rerum labore illum quidem.
