Be cognizant.
If someone steps back from you - there may be a reason.
If someone offers you a mint or piece of gum - take it!
They might be following the old rule - share and share alike
OR
They might not have the courage to say that your breath is
OUTRAGEOUS.
Bathe.
There was a co-worker once that rarely seemed to smell good and all hints were ignored.
Finally, the branch manager of the office called the guy in and suggested to him that if he
was going to do sweaty work at home before coming to the office then he needed to allow time for a shower. Thank goodness that helped; not everyday was great but the man improved.
Wear clean, neat clothes and if you serve in a humid part of the country or in an industry where you can get sweaty and dirty - at least keep a clean shirt handy to switch into before the next call. You cannot predict the future and can never know what opportunity may arise. Sure, Chris Gardner pulled it off (at least in the movie "Pursuit of Happyness" he did) but that is a card you probably shouldn't try to play.
