Considering that you have name of the customer in B3 cell and the date to meet that customer in C3 cell.
1. Select the B3 cell and choose 'Format -> Conditional formatting'
2. Select 'Formula Is' in the 'Condition1' field
3. Input '=$B$3-1=TODAY()' in the text box
4. Click the 'Format' button and choose a font style
