What do I ask the big players? The shakers and movers?

[Steven J.]

I've just developed a contact with one of the partners of one of the biggest real estate development groups in my area. Having lunch or dinner with them would be an excellent opportunity for me. Being a bit star struck I'm not sure how to approach them as I have very little to offer them. I would like to think myself a great networker, eager apprentice, and a connector of people - but they don't need that. 

Does anyone have suggestions as to how I can network with them, prove that I'm serious, examples of specific questions that impress them? I'd love to have these guys as a contact and/or mentor.

THANK YOU!
