Telephone has become a vital part of communication. So its only logical to know the basic telephone manners. Lets follow the below mentioned basic telephone manners to make our calls count.
Basic Telephone Manners:
* Let the telephone ring a reasonable length of time. It is frustrating to just get to the telephone and hear a dial tone.
* If you dial a number that is wrong, apologize, promptly and hang-up.
* Calling a business at or very near closing time is to say the least un-thoughtful. When it is time to go home, after a long day, do not delay them.
* State your name when placing a call. The game of "guess who this is" may not play very well to a busy friend.
* When speaking to anyone who is working and time is of the essence, make your call informative and short.
*Dial carefully and in proper lighting to avoid calling a wrong number and in-conveniencing others.
