Personal contacts and networking are largely how publishing works, I think. If you know anyone, or anyone who might know anyone, see if they can help. Info on who to send query letters to would be good stuff.
Beyond that, 'help,' would be the person has an actual ongoing talking relationship with someone, and is willing to talk about you. Names you can drop, even with permission, count for nothing.
