Whether meeting face to face or online, it is important to remember that first impressions are lasting impressions. If you are representing your business, keep your image professional.

The fastest and easiest way to make a good first impression is to ask a lot of questions about the other person. Be Interested before being interesting... Rule #1
Rule #2: notice the little things they say about their personal lives - they have a boy in little league or a daughter who just won the best student award, then follow up with a handwritten note thanking them for a great meeting and wishing them luck at their son's game this weekend, etc.
People are most impresssed when you show a genuine interest in who they are. That will ultimately open the door to an easier sale.

According to me it's better to have a Face to Face discussion with the clients as the tone of our voice, the way we present it all influences the client’s final decision.
