While I love the convenience of email, it is far from the most efficient way to do business often and not the way I will communicate to try to get a read of off a potential vendor or courting a large customer.
I am also the type to drive or jump on a plane to meet new vendors or clients.
Guess I must be old school.

That is not at all what I happen to be saying. The entire reason my toll-free number is on my websites is to take phone orders and service customers in a timely manner.
That, in fact, is why I don't / can't / shouldn't waste time with cold calling salesmen that want to give me a new alarm system, health care, insurance rates - or as happen within the last hour a call from a guy saying he is the "Local Google Specialist" and can get me in the top of Google, guaranteed! (He didn't ask what business I was in or what keywords I would want).
