Face-to-face networking is the wisest choice when starting relationships. One of the major reasons is that about 90 percent of in-person communication is conveyed nonverbally. A person’s walk, posture, handshake, eye contact, facial expressions and appearance as well as tone, rate, pitch, speed and inflection share volumes of information … and is missing online. If geographically impossible, the second best thing is a telephone call to hear voice modularity.
