In person when appropriate. Next would be teams. Seeing faces is extremely important in order to build a solid relationship foundation. I said when approriate, because it isn't ALWAYS needed and not everyone wants to meet immediately. The classics - phone call, email and LinkedIn - are important.

Hi! Just joined the academy - I'm a one-man band design business, looking to grow and be more serious - my tool of choice would be e-mail or LinkedIn so far, but I'm definitely open to getting new ideas! Cheers!

Omnichannel as its greatly dependent on the sector/persona and watering holes. LinkedIn interactions, calls, WhatsApp, email and F2F at small local events-generally.

In person has been my SOP, but i'm learning virtual sales. LinkedIn is a resourse and we're looking at Wiza or Apollo for the actual lead generation.
