给国外客户打电话总是感觉恐惧,其实实战中打电话是有一些固定的说辞,但前提是你要对公司及产品相关英文介绍要烂熟于心,然后结合下面这些话术,再和客户电话沟通就很轻松了!一起来看看,各种情况下,电话应该怎么打?
1. Hello/Good morning/Good afternoon. [Company name], [your name] speaking, how may I help you?比如:Hello/Good morning/Good afternoon. Quick Translations, Alice speaking, how may I help you?
2. [Company name], [your name] speaking.比如:Quick Translations, Alice speaking.
1. Hello, this is [your name] from [company name].比如:Hello, this is Neil Jenkins from ABC Travels.2. Hi, it's [your name] from [company name].比如:Hi, it's Neil Jenkins from ABC Travels.
1. May I speak to [person's name]?比如:May I (please) speak to Mr. Smith?2. I'd like to speak to [person's name], please.比如:I'd like to speak to Mr. Smith, please. 如果你很确定你要找谁,可以用这样的句型。
一般打电话时候,开头的时候,你需要稍微阐释下,为什么你要打这通电话,这样双方能知判断下面该如何处理,是直接对话,还是需要转达等。1. I'm calling to ask about/discuss/clarify…例如:I'm calling to ask about your current printing promotion.例如:I just wanted to ask if you need any more details about our plan?我想打电话过来问下,你是否需要知道我们下个计划的具体细节?例如:Could you tell me the address of Friday's networking event?
打电话开始时候少不了寒暄一下。英文里,管这个叫做small talk,那么寒暄话如何说呢?
1. Hi, [first name], how are you?如果你记不起来具体要说什么了,或者难以开口直接请别人帮忙,可以用这样比较general的句型作为开头,做为ice breaker.2. How are you getting on with…?如果你能记住具体细节,想要以此拉近和对方关系,可以用这句。比如,如果你记得对方公司刚刚搬进一幢新的大楼,你可以这么说:How are you getting on with preparations to change office buildings next month?下个月你要搬去新大楼了,准备得怎样了?
如果你发现对方不是找你的,你只能帮忙留个口信,那么可以怎么说呢?1. I'm sorry, she/he's not here today. Can I take a message?2. I'm afraid he/she's not available at the moment. Can I take a message?3. I'm afraid she's in a meeting until 4 p.m. Can I take a message?4. Could I ask who's calling, please?5. I'll give him/her your message as soon as he/she gets back.
如果你打了个电话过去,发现要找的人不在,如何拜托接电话的人转达呢?1. Could you please take a message? Please tell her/him that…例如:Could you please take a message? Please tell her that Cindy from accounting called about Mr. Shapiro's expense reports.你能记一下吗?告诉她会计部的Cindy打电话来问Shapiro的费用报告事情。2. I'd like to leave her/him a message. Please let her/him know that…例如:I'd like to leave him a message. Please let him know that tomorrow's lunch meeting is cancelled.
Asking when somebody will be available?1. When is a good time to call?2. When is she/he going to be back?1. Could I ask what company you're with?2. Could you give me your mobile number, please?
Asking the other person to repeat information有时候,讲电话难免听不清楚对方的话,怎么要求对方重复呢?1. Could you spell that for me, please?2. How do you spell that, please?3. Would you mind speaking up a bit? I can’t hear you very well.4.I think we have a bad connection. 5. I'm sorry, I didn't catch your first name.Let me see if I got that right.
When you say…do you mean…?
So if I understand you correctly…
Just to confirm, …
Just to clarify, you said…
I'm not sure I understand. Did you mean…?
再跟您确认一下,您的意思是……
有时候,你确实没法回答别人相关问题,那么如何说你帮不了别人呢?1. I'm afraid I can't give you that information.2. Sorry, but I'm not allowed to give details about that.
1. Thank you very much for your help.3. Thank you for your time.Thank you for your time. Have a great day!
