How do you connect with your contacts?

I like to email them, and either call right away or wait for an open notification - it's also nice to call them in Hubspot so I can take notes in the CRM right when I'm on the phone with them or just after while it's fresh in my brain and a lot of the clicking around for logging information is already taken care of.

Initially, I might connect via email - but the next step is either a phone call or a video call.
