1) If you call repeatedly and don't pick up, don't keep calling.
If you call the other person four or five times and they don't pick up, you shouldn't keep calling. It may be because the other person has some other important issue. Or maybe it's someone else's phone. If you are, you must have been in such a situation. That's why you should understand that the other person is not picking up the phone. Sometimes, I was about to get off the bus with bags in my hands. You must have experienced that the phone keeps coming out of your bag. It is very disturbing for the other person. That's why you should understand if the person on the other end doesn't pick up the phone.
2) If you are not comfortable talking on the phone, you should ask first.
When the phone rings, I want to be myself, Rather than saying what you want to say first, you should first ask if the other person is in a situation where you can talk on the phone. "Can I talk on the phone..." The first time I asked, the person on the other end could also answer....I know a situation where I can't answer. Sometimes, when I'm in the meeting room, the phone starts ringing, so people in the meeting room pick up the phone and listen. Asking the other person's situation first is a form of understanding the other person's situation.
3) Say a greeting.
The other person is your boss, If you are senior than yourself, say, "Congratulations, sir." Are you comfortable talking on the phone?" etc. You should ask if you are comfortable talking on the phone while saying goodbye. If it's okay, then you should continue to say what you want to say. your friends If it's friends, "What are you doing...friends. ....I have something to say....Can I say it?" etc. should be said first.
4) You should not mince words.
When I start the phone call, I wonder if the person on the other end is interested in what I have to say, rather than saying everything I want to say in a row. You should let the other person talk back to you and see how the other person responds.
5) Say yes.
Not responding to what the other person says is disrespecting the other person's words. That's why I'm listening to the other person. Emphasis on To show that you understand, you should respond with "Yes..." "Yes..." etc.
6).
End the conversation with something like, "If that's the case..." to make sure the conversation is complete. That way, the other person will know that you have spoken on the phone for sure. Sometimes I have experienced that I dropped the phone without knowing what I was talking about. You haven't finished speaking from this side yet, The other person hung up the phone. That's why we should say something like "That's it..." as the meaning of what we've already talked about on the phone.
7) Call back if you see a missed call.
If you see the phone calling you, at a time that is convenient for you, Or you should call me back when you can talk calmly.
If you read the points above, they are simple and easy to follow, but they can be annoying because of unknowing people. I don't like it if it bothers me. You should be careful not to disturb others. Please share this post and tell other friends.
