Send Networking Email Over Weekend?
Is it ok to send networking emails over the weekend? Or should I schedule them for during the weekday. It seems as if people are often busy on the weekdays to respond.

When I was in school I used to schedule them for Tuesday-Thursday mornings to avoid catching people just getting back on Monday morning or looking forward to getting out of the office on Friday.
Now in my job, I would probably be more likely to respond on a weekday, but getting an email on a Sunday afternoon would not bother me at all.
Honestly as someone who has been in the workplace for a decent amount of time now I think Friday morning would be the best time for something like this to hit my inbox.. Fridays are pretty slow whereas if it comes in mid-week I'm booked with meetings or jumping from thing to thing I might skip over a networking e-mail. Plus everyone is in a better mood on Friday.
People tend to overthink shit like this though. It really doesn't matter that much.
Agreed that people overthink it. It's going to be highly reliant on the individual. I'm WFH on Wed and Fri and more likely to respond on those days when I'm on a zoom call that I probably don't need to be on anyway.
If the email is well written and seems sincere, plus the person isn't asking for much, I'll likely respond regardless of when I received it. How it's written is 100x more important than when it hits my inbox.
Don’t send on weekend. Tuesday - Thursday during business hours is best
Don't do it. You have nothing to gain except for the small chance that you piss someone off to the nth degree.
