That’s not how it works. Most of those emails/contacts have never spent any time getting to know what kind of work I do.

As a follow up to an LOI package, if a company that interests me can’t use me at the moment, I’ll ask to be remembered if they need to hire on additional writers during a busy time, and then I add them to my quarterly direct mail postcard list to check in and see where their workload is. But not as social media communication.
