No, they're the same. Although here used in different contexts (trying to start a sync conversation VS marketing trying to get you to sign up for something), but they are effectively saying the same thing, "I need a minute from you for X".

It's still poor etiquette as it lacks basic context. Chat about what? Something important? The weather? What is the urgency/priority?
