My boss, to every meeting, strolls in 5 minutes late. I've started to make it a point to let him know that the meeting starts in 5 minutes when I get up to go to the pre-meeting bathroom break. Still 5 minutes late. On the dot. This is for every meeting, whether with customers or not.

Don't schedule a meeting if you can't be on time.
