One of the most common ways our customers interface with employees is through the telephone. Therefore, having an understanding of telephone etiquette will make a giant difference to your customers and your profits. Your reputation for service depends on how well your staff handles incoming and outgoing calls. 86 percent of the message your customers receive on the telephone is through the tonality of the voice they hear. Only 14 percent of the message they hear are the words used. Our “Business Image on The Telephone” training helps your employees to develop and master the techniques that will enhance your company’s image.
Telephone etiquette is an effective public relations tool for creating a positive telephone experience for your customers. This workshop includes dynamic trainee/trainer interactions and discussions, written and oral exercises, visual aids, and a proprietary workbook for each participant to take back to the workplace.
Audience: This program is designed for any one who deals with customers by telephone – call center agents, customer service representatives and all customer facing staff.

Overview
Manage your telephone impressions: A caller’s first impression with an organization is often over the telephone. The caller’s expectations and their reality are examined.
Enhancing telephone impressions: How we answer a call, or how we transfer or put someone on hold creates an impression on the caller’s mind. We demonstrate techniques for developing a pleasant telephone voice that will make the difference between a poor or excellent experience for the caller. We explore the positive vocabulary that creates rapport with the caller.
Improving your listening skills: When customers call, two of their most important needs are to be listened to and to be respected. We focus on what to do and what to avoid when we are listening to our customers to ensure we deliver to their expectations.
Dealing with difficult customers: We provide solid tips on how to effectively handle complaints and how to keep your customers satisfied without experiencing frustrations, or needing to escalate the issue to a higher level. We show how to diffuse situations without anger.
