Fact: 88% of your customers who stop using your services or products do so because of perceived employee indifference or rudeness.

One of the most common ways our customers interface with employees is through the telephone. Therefore, having an understanding of telephone etiquette will make a large difference to your customers and your profits. Your reputation for service depends on how well your staff handle incoming and outgoing calls. 87% of the message your customers receive on the telephone is through the tonality of the voice they hear. Only 13% of the message they hear are the words used.

This McTimothy Associates telephone etiquette training helps your employees to develop and master the techniques that will enhance your company’s image.

This workshop includes dynamic trainee/trainer interactions and discussions, written and oral exercises, voice recordings, case studies, reflection, quizzes and a workbook for each participant to take back to the workplace.

Target Audience

This workshop is designed for everyone who deals with customers on the telephone – call centre agents, customer service representatives, receptionists and all customer-facing staff.
