Honestly, I prefer to establish the new key on the V rather than the I. To me, it helps get the key better in our ears. Fun fact, the first scale degree (do) of the old key would be the seventh scale degree (ti) of the new key, so if I was to start the new key on the V, the do would be the third of the V chord of that new key.
