✔ Start on time.

Communication History
Every conversation should be recorded.
Example:
| Date | Activity |
|---|---|
| July 1 | Inquiry Received |
| July 2 | First Call |
| July 4 | Product Demo |
| July 6 | Proposal Sent |
| July 8 | Pricing Discussion |
| July 10 | Customer Purchased |
This history ensures every team member has complete context.
Response Time Matters
Customers appreciate quick responses.
Recommended targets:
| Inquiry Type | Ideal Response Time |
|---|---|
| Website Inquiry | Within 15 Minutes |
| Within 10 Minutes | |
| Within 2 Hours | |
| Phone Call | Same Day |
| Support Ticket | Within 4 Hours |
Faster responses often lead to higher conversion rates.
Active Listening
Communication isn't just talking.
Great salespeople listen carefully.
Ask questions like:
What challenge are you trying to solve?
What system are you currently using?
What improvements are you looking for?
What timeline are you planning?
Understanding customer needs helps you recommend the right solution.
Personalization
Avoid generic conversations.
Instead of:
"Hello Customer"
Use:
"Hello Mr. Sharma,
I hope your school admission process is going well."
Personalized communication builds stronger relationships.

❌ Interrupting customers
❌ Talking too much
