Rules for using a phone - some do-s & don’t-s
Have all the documents you need to hand before you dial a number.
Speak clearly so that the other person can understand you easily.
Always confirm each point of information you are given; don’t pretend that you have understood when you have not.
Speak in a polite & friendly voice- the client can’t see what a nice person you are.
Behave in an efficient way even if you are just taking a message.
Make notes during a call-don’t rely on your memory; read all important information details back to the client from your notes.
Let the other person finish what they want to say-don’t interrupt them.
Send a follow-up fax or letter to confirm any important details (especially prices &dates) so that you both have a written record of them.
SPEAK TO PEAPLE- there is nothing as nice as a cheerful word of greeting;
SMILE TO PEOPLE-it takes 72 muscles to frown, only 14 to smile;
CALL PEOPLE BY NAM E-the sweetest music to anyone’s ears is the sound of their own name;
BE FRIENDLY-you can make friends by being friendly;
BE HELPFUL-act as if it’s your pleasure;
BE INTERESTED IN PEOPLE- you can like everyone if you try;
CONSIDER THE FEELINGS & EMOTIONS OF OTHERS- it will be appreciated.
