I recently received a phone message which made me think about ways we can all improve on this important, yet neglected activity.
The Do
- Speak slowly and clearly.
- Say your name, your company, your callback number and a brief reason for your call.
- Repeat your callback number at the end of the message.
The Don't
- Speak quickly, especially when leaving a callback number.
- Call while eating, coughing, or sneezing.
- Call while outside or a loud environment.
- Leave messages while carrying on a conversation.
- Leave rambling messages which exceed common courtesy.
- Leave a pitch, plea or unusual request.
- Forget to leave your name of callback number.
Voice mail is your friend. Use it wisely and with courtesy and it will pay back handsome dividends.
