XVI. Make up your own dialogues using as many phone conversational phrases as you can.
XVII. Read and translate the text: speaking over the phone
When you deal with someone face-to-face you can get lots of information from their body language, facial expressions and gestures as well as hearing what they say and how they say it. Making a phone call is not always easy – you do not see each other and can’t make use of non-verbal factors which usually help to establish mutual understanding.
When speaking over the phone on business remember telephone techniques:
-
Identify yourself by giving your name and your position in the company.
-
Explain the purpose of your call.
-
Speak clearly and briefly.
-
If you haven’t heard something say: "Sorry, I didn’t catch you" or just "I’m sorry, I didn’t understand". It is impolite to say: "Please, repeat".
-
Don’t interrupt the other person even if you think you know what he or she is going to say, let them finish what they want to say.
-
Give important information, like figures, names, quantities, dates and so on, slowly and carefully.
-
Note down all the important information you are given by the other person.
-
Send a following-up fax or e-mail to confirm any important details (especially prices and numbers), so that you both have a written record of them.
