Description

Who Should Attend?

All staff who directly, or indirectly, communicate with internal and external customers, and who need to improve and develop their telephone etiquette.

About The Program

This program is specifically designed for people who spend at least 50% of their time on the phone with customers. Poor telephone handling can be very expensive for your company, both in lost image and lost money. Millions of dollars are lost in the Gulf region every year because of poor handling of customers by staff on the telephone. In one example, we tell a real-life story of how a company lost over AED 5 million because of poor telephone skills by a member of staff who did not know how to deal with a customer! Customers who are well-handled will call again and bring you more business. Bad telephone technique, and poor customer care, will lose you customers. It costs you approximately eight times as much to find a new customer, compared to keeping an existing one. This course is essential, if your staff have not been trained in effective telephone skills. It teaches the correct methods of proper telephone handling, in an enjoyable and highly participative program.
