What are Telephone Skills?

Telephone skills, also known as phone etiquette or telephone etiquette, refer to the set of behaviours and techniques used when communicating with others over the phone. Effective telephone skills are essential in various professional settings, such as customer service, sales, business communication, and everyday interactions.

The fear of using the wrong words, tone, or phrasing can hinder professional calls. This course teaches you how to deliver excellent customer service on every call, from hello to goodbye. We cover tone of voice, pitch, active listening, and presenting yourself in a positive, professional manner.

Making professional and effective phone calls can be challenging due to the pressure of presenting yourself well and conveying your message clearly. This course focuses on overcoming fears that may prevent you from making excellent calls. Confidence can be taught and developed, and we will work with you to ensure you are in control whenever you pick up the phone, not your nerves.
