"Hajimemashite."（No question mark)

hajimemashite means "Nice to meet you." genki desu ka is a question and It means "How are you?". You can say, Ogenki desu ka? This way is more polite.

I don't know exactly, but "hajime" means "the first time."
I think that "hajime mashi-te" means "I'm glad to have the opportunity to meet you (FOR THE FIRST TIME)."
