Answering the Telephone- turning good morning into good business
A 1-day in-company workshop
Callers judge the professionalism of your organisation from their first contact with your people. A well-handled phone call will convey the right image, and customers who are well handled will call again and bring you more business.
This workshop is for every member of your staff who uses the telephone for their day-to-day interaction with customers, suppliers or work colleagues. Delegates will learn the skills necessary to be effective on the telephone along with the key principles of giving good customer service.
Description:
This is one of our pre-designed (standard) in company workshops and can be delivered to your staff at a venue and on a date of your choice.

Essential telephone techniques, including the correct way to handle an incoming call, making an outbound call and leaving professional voice messages are discussed.
