TELEPHONICETIQUETTES
TELEPHONIC ETIQUETTES
• Be formal
Being formal is classy. In business, you need as much class as you can
get.
• Getting through
Although email and instant messaging are quickly becoming standard
forms of office communication, the telephone still plays an important
role in business
• Making the call
When making a business call, be sure to first identify yourself and
your company
• Answering the phone
People make business phone calls for specific reasons. Very rarely do
vendors or clients call just to catch up. Telephone calls usually lead to
some action to be taken,
Just because you can't see the caller, it doesn't
mean you have the right to suspend the normal
rules of politeness
• Hold, please

The hold feature is generally considered a double-edged sword in telephone


etiquette. No one is usually available at the exact moment of a phone call, and being
on hold simply must be tolerated

• Voice mail and messages

If you have to leave a message or voice mail for someone, make it short and to the
point. Speak clearly and slowly and leave your name, phone number, and a brief
message.

• Listening skills

Another skill in receiving telephone calls is the ability to listen properly. Passive
listening is simply allowing the caller to talk and not taking any action to ensure we
have the right message.
