Curious to wonder what's your best way to succeed only using these two channels, tbh honest I rather call because it gets me more results, open to learn more

LI takes a lot more time for sure. I've seen the best conversion on LI only after I have engaged with the prospect's posts and other activities a few times

Purpose of mailing is to record our name, company , phone , mail id with them..so that they will read it in their own time rather than disturbing them by calling in their busy hours. 

It may take some time - I even got a positive reply mail from one of the customer after one year.

Still, if you got a reply.  it will be a verified or good lead to proceed.

In B2B its important to mix in every possible medium you have available.  Email, phone, LI, direct mail, other social channel -- but equally (if not more important) is personalization at scale.  If a robot could send (or does send) your emails, you are going to be ice skating up hill in the long run.

The Phone, gotta have conversations. But let's be honest, we love getting those meetings through emails and linkedin, less effort i guess

Agreed. Phone conversation is a great way. 
Rather a skill. But the failure rate is high here. We need to spend our quality time every day to understand each customer before giving it a try where it may end either way.

Great! Unfortunately I don't have that much time to spend per call which is not even a lead. :)

To start off it's going to be over the phone. BUT if I have the chance I'm trying to meet with them face to face.
