BAJAN SUN MAGAZINE DEC 2014 HOW TO ANSWER THE PHONE IN A BUSY SITUATION 1. When answering the telephone in a busy company, never answer with "Thanks for calling, hold please," as this immediately belittles the person on the other end. 2. If the phone rings while you are helping another guest, politely ask the guest to excuse you for a moment, then answer the phone. 3. After greeting appropriately, let the person on the other line know you will be able to help them momentarily. 4. Finish helping your current guest and come back to the phone within the next minute if possible. www.bajansunonline.com/MAGAZINE/ | [email protected] | @BajanSunOnline
