If you are selling design services, then Arial is probably the second worse choice (Comic Sans being first). You should be showing some of your design esthetics, and choosing the default font for many applications will not do the trick. Neil has given a few good choices ... I could come up with another hundred given some time (as could he).

And that is only on the sans side ... there are even more good serif fonts that communicate good design esthetics. A Garamond, Janson, Aldus, Goudy Old Style, Warnock ... all much more impressive than Times New Roman.
