Choosing A Jet Charter That Is Environmentally Sound

By Chris Channing

When you go to purchase a jet chartering service, you probably aren't necessarily thinking of the environment and how you are affecting it while you travel. But there are indeed those that care for the environment- which has forced major jet chartering companies to go "green" to a certain extent.

It is important to inquire whether or not the factory that was used to create the jet was making use of clean energy. Powering factories based on a clean source of energy, such as wind power, can help save the environment from other sources of energy use- such as coal. Clearly, it is best to give your business to a jet chartering service that is informed on how the jets they obtain are created and under what circumstances.

A jet chartering service will likely give you a nice selection of jets to choose from, both new and old. It would be in the best interest of the environment if you were to opt for the newer models, since they are typically better at engine efficiency and their ability to keep wind resistance down to a minimum. If everyone did this, there would be much less emissions to worry about.

When you are choosing your jet, try to pick one that is closely sized to the amount of space you are realistically going to need. A large jet would be nice to have a luxurious flight, but larger jets take more energy to run and will put out more emissions, burn more fuel, and overall be more of a problem. Thus, the smaller jet usually equates into the better option.

Currently there are several types of hybrid jet fuels in the works to help lessen our dependence on conventional fuel. In doing research on this subject, humanity will be closer to a fuel type that will be able to burn better, and with natural resources that can be easily renewed. Currently these advances are a bit out of reach, but some of the most popular jet chartering services stand out from the others by donating to these causes. Supporting jet charter services that support green movements is always a good idea.

The best way to bypass the act of putting more emissions into the atmosphere is to simply not obtain a jet charter. While this sounds good in theory, few modes of travel will rival jet flights- which are characterized by their speed, range, and ability to go places where other travel types can't. Even still, you may consider public transit for trips that would only take a couple of hours.

In Conclusion

You should speak to a travel broker if you have any further need to get into contact with a jet charter service. You should also look online for your options in services that have a presence on the Internet to help get the best deal you can possibly get.

Options In Style And Functionality In Laptop Totes

By Chris Channing

Laptops don't come cheap, with some going as much as a few thousand dollars. If you take the money and effort to obtain a laptop, you are probably going to be inclined to buy a laptop carrier of some sort afterward. This can help keep your investment safe from harm, and ensure accidents don't happen.

You would like to keep your investment safe, so do be sure to consider padding and hard shell cases if you are protective of your laptop. A hard shell laptop case is less flexible and can go less places than their counterparts, but they do provide for better protection. Bags such as this also typically come with special locking mechanisms to protect your laptop from being stolen in the case of theft.

You would be surprised at how much a laptop can take in abuse, and how much a simple leather case can protect it in a fall. Dropping a laptop from about waist-height can damage your laptop considerably, but even a moderate layer of leather in between the ground and the laptop can protect it from serious damage. In the event you drop your laptop, immediately check it to see if it is working, otherwise check your warranty for information.

Some people have problems with buying a laptop bag from a department store. After all, buying a generic laptop bag will lead to confusion in knowing which laptop is yours if you are in an environment of many different computer users. You can help avoid this by going online to get a wider variety of styles- or even create your own via different special websites.

You are likely going to be considering security and style primarily during your search, but also consider what optional compartments the tote may have. Having extra compartments for backup media, blank discs, writing utensils, and other things is always great to have. Laptop bags that only carry the laptop will only prove to be a hassle when you need to carry around other small items as well.

Trends change daily, but one neat trend starting up is to buy laptop bags that are transparent. In buying such a bag, anyone passing you buy can see into your tote- and also your laptop and accessories. This can make for easy identification of your own laptop, and makes for a fun style that few are likely to have.

Closing Comments

You won't necessarily have to settle for less if you don't find a laptop case you like in your local store. Go online and visit retailers who stock laptop bags and accessories for more options. In doing so, you will individualize yourself and your personal property for a more enjoyable laptop case.

Read about Why I Love My Kindle 2

By Joseph W. Risinko

With 20% faster page turning and improved ergonomics, the makers of Kindle 2 have made the experience of reading a book, periodical or blog an even more enjoyable one. While the Kindle 2 may weigh less than the average paperback book, it employs electronic paper technology that provides an experience similar to reading words on a piece of paper. There's no need to worry about eye-strain with the Kindle 2, because you have the option to adjust the text size to suit your needs.

Kindle has shown that people are more willing than analysts think to read on devices other than books, and I think Kindle, and e paper in general, are going to be very popular. Kindle makes it easy to take your personal documents with you, eliminating the need to print. Kindle also includes free built-in access to the world's most exhaustive and up-to-date encyclopedia--Wikipedia.

Personally, I like the size of the reader, but would consider jumping up to a larger screen if the footprint isn't too big. If you're an avid reader such as myself, buy one and you're hooked. I was a sceptic about any ebook reader, but since purchasing my Kindle last year, I can't imagine my reading life without it.

With Kindle 2 Amazon kept everything readers love about the original Kindle"the convenience of reading what you want, when you want it, the immediacy of getting a book wirelessly delivered in less than 60 seconds, and Kindle 2s ability to disappear in your hands so you can get lost in the authors words. The Kindle 2 actually feels comfortable in my hand now"unlike the original Kindle which is much to angular and sharp-edged to be comfortable after an hour of reading. You will be able to eat with both hands while reading your current read.

With an 800x600 resolution e-ink screen and unlimited free Internet access, the Kindle 2 makes a compelling choice for anyone who enjoys reading. The color of the button text is the same shade of grey produced by the e-ink screen, which helps everything to blend together. The front of the device is entirely white except for the screen and the labels on the buttons.

Wireless: 3G wireless lets you download books right from your Kindle, anytime, anywhere; no monthly fees, service plans, or hunting for Wi-Fi hotspots. Kindle was an interesting concept, and its ability to load books quickly and wirelessly was innovative- but as the author states, it seems much more likely that other devices will step in and do what the Kindle merely suggests: a better screen, better interface, and perhaps best of all much less DRM on the content. I love the wireless features, dictionary, electronic ink, etc. Especially with the wireless capability to get what I wanted on demand.

I think eBook readers like this will be the future, eventually. However, I think that the advantages of eBooks over printed ones are great enough that the main factor affecting sales will be the popularity of reading vs that of listening to music. The wireless near-instant downloads of the kindle is what makes it superior to other ebook readers to me.

Im a HUGE news junkie, and I would love to subscribe to the New York Times, the Washington Post, and a host of other faltering newspapers on my new Kindle 2. The weeks that I have spent with my Kindle 2 has made it clear that it is miles ahead of the competition. With an 800x600 resolution e-ink screen and unlimited free Internet access, the Kindle 2 makes a compelling choice for anyone who enjoys reading.

Dopod 838 and Dopod 900 Comparative Evaluation

By Professional editor working for cheaponsale.

838 with a one-year, and today over 838 have been incomplete, and before thinking about the total 838 for what should be broken machine, I think a lot of 838 faithful friends thought about this question, ten thousand thousand picked after the last election Dopod 900 pro put such as arms. Since my 900 has been a lot of such as Friends of Friends will ask me 900-to-use? High-performance? Better than 838 the number of such questions. Today, I put my own embodied write to share with the Friends of the faithful, hoping to help the replacement friends.

First, from the appearance point of view, the 900 than on 838, to a large circle, a lot of friends that used 900 large, individuals prefer to use a large cell phone, so look it up on the result of people, and 900 are also listed the cell phone a long time , so they would like to join a new is impossible, are now available on the market are back to a new cell phone, I think, as long as the machine hardware itself no problem, then it is acceptable, together with the JS were promised after-sales service, the number of many less also give themselves a little confidence, after all, the prices are very attractive. In fact, accept it is because of people.

Performance, 900 of 3.6 VGA screen, 520 frequency of the CPU, 128 +128 of the memory, the keyboard is very perfect indeed better than the 838 on more than one grade on the keyboard, the 838 and 900 have one, but the practicality and 900 work on a lot of good. Needless to say on the CPU, and one is 195 and one 520, light from the figure 900 on the CPU will be able to feel powerful. 3.6 VGA screen and 2.8 QVGA screen, not to mention that resolution 900 of the 838 are 4 times. Please note that the Friends of the faithful, light from the hardware specifications, performance on that of the 900 are 838 times better (I believe a lot of the Friends of the faithful into the 900 from its appearance on the hardware performance and make decisions), appearance, performance 900 victory 838. However, the actual use of what can now use 838 for some time that the 838 Friend considerable use and stability (often said that the rookie except), currently 838 of the ROM a lot of other documents, update soon, but 900 do? Not, want to find a good ROM that is not an ordinary hard-Yes, 838 is relatively speaking, the resources of 900 small, hard to find a more stable ROM brush, and one test, 520 of the U is not as powerful imagination sometimes feel that with the 195 before the 838's no different, of course, if true then it must surely be no better than than, but really think that 900 individuals are 520 Whether or not true then the U. 3.6 VGA screen, very good imagination can be as small VGA software are often diverted from QVGA, and one showed more than QVGA ugly, that's a waste it.

128 RAM, previously 838, the hair would also like to dream of their own RAM are 128 and 128 can be here today is a so what, the performance is indeed strong, and there is use up the RAM, but 128 of the RAM is not an ordinary charge point, the original 1620 milliamperes with electricity, can see that one of 99.98.97 ...... gone in each frame, with a 3200 milliamperes can only be used in the day, the cost is half of the mobile phone on thick What it does not have any feel, when really miss the 838 days of 1250 milliamperes can be used when ah.

Other words, if a cell phone when the two are, the 900 apart from the data, hardware than 838 strong, the other I really do not think that there is any stronger than the 838, and 838 although the configuration it is not high, but relative to a mobile phone it good enough for us. Or this sentence, you want when the 838 is a cell phone, do not use it as PDA.

A Virtual Phone Service Can Make Your Business Appear Larger

By Caressa Waechter

When you have your own business, it is in your best interest to make sure that you use anything you can to get a competitive advantage. An easy and affordable way to get an edge on all of your competition is to use a small business virtual phone service. By making use of this service, you can actually make your business appear larger than it is to your customers.

Just like the largest of companies, a virtual phone service uses an auto attendant to efficiently answering calls. This virtual receptionist handles correctly routing incoming calls to ensure they end up where they are supposed to, using the same system that a large corporation does.

With call answering rules, you have complete control over the routing of phone calls. You can set up rules that define how certain calls are handled depending on the day of the week, time of day, or even where the call originated from.

You can also set up a call queue, which puts callers in a holding pattern until the next employee is available to take the call. You can define what the caller listens to as they hold, such as music, or a company message. Call queuing ensures that calls are answered as quickly and efficiently as possible.

A voice mail system that is full of useful features is another benefit of using a virtual small business phone system. This allows calls that cannot be answered directly to be answered by a professional greeting and handled with mailboxes for each extension. The voice mails then can be sent to your via email, or you can be notified that you have a new message waiting through a variety of means.

Multiple phone extensions allow you to efficiently route incoming calls to the appropriate place. This will also give your company the appearance of having multiple departments with many employees. You can add extensions as you need, allowing for easy and affordable phone system expansion.

For that ultimate big company feel, go with a toll free number to use with your virtual phone service. It will not cost you anymore, but it certainly will give your customers the impression that you run a big company.

These are just a few of the features offered by a virtual small business phone service that help make your small business appear to the customers to be much larger than it really is. Try an affordable, easy to use virtual phone solution and see how its powerful features can really work towards improving your company's bottom line.

Technology Tips - The target buyers of the iPod video

By Mac Maurer

Every new release of a product gets the interest of a particular type of people. While men seem more interested in technology and women in beauty products, while teens are fond of games and music and adults more of books, the marketers precisely know, before launching a new product, the main target of their new item. For example, the iPod video is one of the new releases which defiantly have a specific type of buyers.

The target buyers of this new device are, for sure, young people and adults which are trying to buy a great present for their children. In this example, the critics say that in many cases, the adults do not know the features of the new device well and all the things that it can be used for. So, one of the most important worries that parents should have is the fact that some children might use the iPod to directly download (as this new iPod video allows to do so) some materials from sites destined to adults only. More precisely, the target customers of the iPod video are somewhere between the ages of 16 and 30, but there are various categories which don?t fit in this group, too.

Among these, there are the people above 30 years which want to remain modern and keep focused on the new releases in the technology department. Even more, there are various customers which own an iPod from the 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th generation and simply want to upgrade their item and to be healthy to watch clips and movies on the device, as well.

On the other hand, the income so far clearly indicate the fact that the new iPod video is bought more by men then by women. In many cases, the iPod is bought in order to be offered as a gift for various occasions, as it is consistent, original and useful.

Due to the fact that the new iPod video represents quite and investment, there are rare cases in which teens might purchase one of these with their own money. Still, parents seem disposed to pay the necessary amount of money in order to see their children happy. The income of the iPod video showed the fact that the device sells best before Christmas and before the summer holiday. Due to the fact that the usage of the new iPod video is one of the most pleasant ways to spend the time, (as it offers both video and audio possibilities), the iPod is intensely used while people are on vacation.

So far, the sales say that the number of the buyers is increasing and the people become more and more receptive to the device and its capacities. At the same time, people adapt fast to the new technology, so they expect even more from the next iPod of the Apple Company. Due to this, the team of engineers already works on the next and more optimized iPod, which will bring, besides many new features and accessories, an innovative new capacity, which will surprise the market.

I phone ringtones

By Frank Feelwell

If you want your iPhone to be updated with your favorite music, there's no need to spend your money in getting ringtones. Free ringtones could be found all over the internet if you will just follow these suggestions that will give you instructions on how to get free ringtones for your most precious iPhone. Use Jailbreak for the following options.

SSH/File Transfer is simply done by grabbing an iPhone's iPod-compatible ringtone into the iPhone/Library/Ringtones directory. MP3s, M4As and AACs could be used to let this work. Just make sure that it is supported by iPhone's iPod to make it do its job for you. Another method similar to this is the iFuntastic.

iBrickr, which is compatible to Windows PC format, transcodes sound files. When you found WAV formats way back 1999, you could convert them into a format that could be recognized by iPhone. Just before you start syncing your sound file, it is already converted by iBrickr for you.

Sendsong, which needs AppTapp to be installed, lets you transfer a song from your iPod into the Ringtones section of your phone. It is basically sending a song from one folder into another.

Without the use of Jailbreak, you could also get ringtones for free. iTunes Music Store and Rogue Amoeba's MakeiPhone Ringtone are a few samples. You will need AAC-formatted files to be able to use these. The ones that you purchased on iTunes are all in AAC format. SImply place the AAc files into the Ringtone folder and you'll have instant ringtone for your iPhone.

M4R, which is produced by Apple, is a new format for your phones. It is the renamed version of AAC and works well into iPhones. You could choose files from your folders, put it into iTunes and go back to your music file to convert it into AAC. The iTunes folder already has it and changed its format into M4R. When you put it back into iTunes, it will now be recognized as a ringtone and be easily uploaded in your iPhone.

If your music files are already into AAc format, it will be much more easier for you to convert it. You will only do one step and that is renaming your M4A format into M4R. If by any chance you have other formats, such as MP3 or OGG, you will still have to convert them into AAC and rename again.

Do You Need to be an Email Sherlock Holmes

By James Warrington

Are you receiving emails and wanting to discover who exactly is sending them to you? You are getting those annoying spam emails and you just cant seem to get off the senders list? Now you are fed up and determined that you are going to find the perpetrator. The only problem is, how do you get this information?

Perhaps it is a person that has been sending you continuous span and you cant get rid of them. You know the times I am speaking about. You have clicked the remove me link and you still dont get off their mailing list. Or worse yet, they have left no remove me link at all on their unsolicited email which makes it obvious spam.

While there are directories on line that will give you a phone number and address if you have the person name, there are no such obvious directories if you only have an email address. So where do you go to find that information and what do you do?

Many people are still somewhat dinosaurs when it comes to using their computers, and the idea of conducting a reverse search on our computer is quite overwhelming. In fact, many people allow this harassment to continue because they simply do not know what to do. They just want to avoid the hassle and so they just change e-mail accounts. This may not end the harassment, especially if someone you know is the perpetrator of this harassment.

So you have the question, what kind of person would actually attempt this kind of personal invasion? While the person who is doing this may not be someone you are directly involved with in your life, it may be someone who is involved in a friends life or someone who works for a company that has your e-mail address. Just think about how many people may have your e-mail address. This list becomes a long list if you are on any mailing list at all.

Email-411 can provides you with answers so that you can put a stop to these ugly e-mails. You do not need any further information than just the offending e-mail address to conduct a reverse search with Email-411. You can do an extensive search once you enter this e-mail address in the search box on the site. Just hit Search button and you will have instant records in just a few seconds.

An online search program like this can provide you with more information than just the name of the offending individual. This site can also provide you with access to over one billion public records. Examples of these records include criminal background checks, arrest records, federal criminal records, sexual offender records, and a list of all the individuals addresses for the last twenty years. You may also be able to access a list of friends and family who are commonly associates with the offending individual.

I have done a thorough review on my Consumer Review site of the Email-411 investigative search program as well as a number of similar programs. Email-411 can help you track down how this person became linked to you and possibly explain why this individual decided to target you. Either way, the information you can obtain will help you put an end to the intrusion in your life. You will finally be able to move on without wondering who is targeting you.

Business Resources - Women in Advertisements

By Jan Maurer

Featuring a female model in advertisements initially started with advertisements on products like alcohol and adult entertainment. The trend then spread like a wildfire in the market and is still being widely used although being exaggerated. It has become a compulsion now to have a beautiful model in all kinds of advertisement, which sometimes seems unnecessary. They seem to sell anything from shaving gel to cars.

Many women right activists say that the women are being projected as merely an object by such advertisements. But the harsh truth is that advertisements featuring women is influencing viewers of all ages and advertisers have realized this. The advertisement starts with an attractive woman posing in seductive ways followed by the product or the service offered by the company.

But there are certain drawbacks in using women models in some advertisements and if a consumer is smart enough, it won't take time for him to realize that. It is totally irrelevant to feature a female model or an actress in advertisement promoting men products. Some good examples of this point are showing a woman in axe deodorant commercial and comparison of a partially nude woman's body to the body of a car. Second drawback is due to more concentration on the model, the attention deserved by the product is not sufficient. The main focus of the advertisement is lost.

Surprisingly only few male models advertises for male oriented products. Even a picture of a woman on an Internet commercial seems not logical to some extent, as there are thirty percent of female internet users and seventy percent of male internet users, worldwide. To add to it, advertisers cannot explain why beautiful bodies bring success to advertisement.

Advertisements are convincing and motivating tool, which can leave a deep impact on the minds of the viewers and plays a major role in molding the culture and attitude of the people. Expansive and extensive portraying of women in this manner merely reduces their image to an object of passion. Emphasis is laid only on the physical beauty of the woman like features, body curves. After the commercial has been shot, using graphical technology, any kind of imperfection of the body is altered which in a way sends out the signal.

The companies have a moral responsibility also in the society. These commercials have a negative impact on the society and leads to problems faced for the common woman. The major ill effect is the pressure on woman to get those near-perfect bodies. They get so pressurized that they take the unhealthy way to reach the set goals. They develop eating disorders; their health gets affected which may sometimes result in irreparable damages. And those who never make it to that point, face humiliation and get taunted by everyone around them. This results in depression and other long-term psychological diseases.

According to researches and surveys conducted, most of the women vow that commercials lower their self-confidence and they visualize themselves as unattractive due to the image being portrayed of the perfect woman in ads. In America, seventy-five percent of healthy females think that they are over-weight. Half of the women populations are on some kind of diet program and nearly ten million women suffer from serious eating disorders. The weight of a fashion model is twenty three percent less than an average weighed ordinary woman.

Advertisements haven't spared women being beaten up. In a particular after shave lotion commercial, the background voice says that its essential to learn martial arts because once a man applies the company's product, women around will be attracted and will pounce on him. Towards the end of the commercial, they show a male model kicking several women model that seem to have attracted to him. This is degradation of respect of women to the lowest level.

After all this exposure, women viewers identify themselves as the weaker sex. Some think that males decide their self-worth. Over exposure of women as sex objects have triggered cases of physical assault and rapes. Majority of the women are taking the wrong way to get those stick figures, which are results in diseases, sometimes leading to death. And most of this is attributed to the advertisements that pour into the lives of innocent people everyday. Marketing ethics should be built to raise the status of woman in the society and give them the due respect but not degrade them.

Cell Phones - Discover What Cell Phone Minutes You Really Need

By Aaron Siegel

Constantly we are exposed to cell phone calling plans and their minute promotions. Whether on television, radio, or online, they are everywhere. Great offers as well as expensive are always advertised to us.

Of the most popular plans, the 1,000 minute plan is the most consumed by Americans today. It may seem like a lot of minutes however the reality is these minutes can easily be drained and cost you more in the long run.

A very important part of the decision process should be based on how many people are going to be using the calling plan. More importantly, who is going to be using your calling minutes. Are the users teenagers? How many of your children will be using the plan? Do you or your spouse frequently make calls? How long is the duration of most of these cell phone calls?

A somewhat simple way to calculate how many minutes you are going to need or may be lacking is to basically make some rough estimates of all possible user's monthly usage by rounding off into hours. Yes, hours not minutes.

In an Example:

Stan (Husband) 4 hours

Sally (Wife) 3 Hours

Sue (17 years old) 5 Hours

Issac (15 Years Old) 4 Hours

TOTAL FAMILY USAGE: 16 Hours

With your combined monthly usage somewhat figured out you then only need to convert those hours back into minutes to compare against current minute plans. To do this you simply only need to multiply your hours total by 60:

16 Hours times 60 Equals 960 Minutes.

As you can see, we came up with a total of minutes by using the times by 60 method. The family usage for this month ended up being a total of 960 minutes.

In this scenario the family is just right for a 1,000 minute plan and that is lucky being you can expect to pay as much as .30 cents per minute after you go over your amount. In any case you should always use some math and fair estimates of how much cellular calling you really will be making.

Just as in the same manner you can multiply the hours by 60 to get your amount of cell phone minutes, you can also divide cell phone minutes by 60 to get your average of hours as well. It is advisable to do this when browsing cell phone minutes to get a better idea of the hours that will be available monthly.

If you do not want to do the math, here are some quick conversions that can help you out quickly. 3,000 Min./50 Hr. 1,500 Min./25 Hr. 1,000 Min./16.5 Hr. 600 Min./10 Hr. 300 Min./5 Hr.

Call Center Training Tips to Increase Your Call to Close Ratio's

By Tyson Daniel

What is a dial worth to your company? What percentage of calls do you schedule for appointments? And could you sell more if you saw more prospects? While most of us see the inherent value of a phone call as a potential lead, if we cannot sell the appointment, we might never get the chance to tell pitch product benefits. Understand that you have an open line of communication between you and the prospect, so be prepared when a live one picks up. Call Center Training can help your organization tackle any challenges you may have been experiencing with respect to caller dropout or dissatisfaction. This article attempts to cover the basic premises of phone etiquette and how to deal with difficult customers and situations through preparation and good customer service training.

The number one piece of advice you will hear during any good call center training workshop is to KNOW your purpose on any given call. Ask yourself, "What are my intentions for this phone call?" Is it your first call with the caller? If so, you're only goal should be to set up an appointment to discuss the finer details that are MOST important to them. As such, you should only highlight the product benefits, not cover them in great detail. Most call center training research will tell you that the objective of the first call is to introduce yourself, your company and the product - THEN ask to follow up with another call. Yet, most businesses don't hear their employees doing this. Instead, they are tyring to close the deal in one call. While this may be possible with the elite phone salesman, it is certainly not the case with phone novice. Just get the appointment. After greeting them, state your purpose immediately. Call center training research indicates people tend not to pay attention more than a few seconds. Again, keep these maxims close to heart: keep it brief, friendly but concise. Good customer service training will show you the only way of accomplishing this is to practice, practice, practice. Every call should begin, "Hello, the purpose of my call is"

Have some sizzle in your pitch, a big fat claim. This is typically called a 30 second commercial, which is approximately 16-20 words, and it has to be compelling enough that they want to see you. In other words, start out "The purpose of my call today is to ask the opportunity to show you our new product that does this and that and saves you such and such." This is precisely that sort of advice you can expect to hear during any call center training workshop, and it usually makes the difference between a good business model and a bad one. You need only pique their interest. Of course, you'll find this difficult without a good product, so that's first and foremost. Next you'll need to supplement it with excellent customer service which comes only through rigorous customer service training.

Finish the call using an Alternate Choice Close. When requesting an appointment, call center training tells us it's best to offer alternative times, i.e., "Are mornings or afternoons usually better for you? What's better Wednesday at 9am or Thursday at 3pm?" This trick puts you in control of the call while offering options that prevent the "I'm too busy" Whatever you do, do not limit their choices. However, presenting too few choices can scare them off as well. Present a few options, then say something like "If neither of those times work for you, is there a better day?" Customer service training from professionals will help your employees present your company in the best possible light by using these time-tested techniques.

Defer the Objection and be prepared for resistance: Know how to handle objections and tell them you will take that into consideration when you get together. The prospect will give you answers to questions you did not ask! Call center training experts agree that the best way to handle objections is to present options and, in a sense, make assumptions. You are not asking for a meeting. You are assuming that you will have a meeting, and you'd like to when is best. Again, this technique follows from what most experts agree is the best way to defer objections and ultimately get the most out of the customer service training you have spent potentially hundreds if not thousands on, during on-site training. Your statement might be something like, "I understand your concern, other clients use the same system you have, and I will take that into consideration, (name) when we get together, when would be a good time to get together, Thursday at ___ or_____?"

What's your "aura"? Good customer service training tells us you must always sound professional. Use the prospects name and know the name they like to be called. Take care of your voice and project a positive confident "aura." Speak just a little louder, a lot clearer and just a little faster. Call center training experts agree that if you use the phone a great deal for your work, exercise your neck regularly. Drink water without ice cubes, (cold water constricts the voice), breath from your abdomen, avoid dairy products and heavy meals prior to calling time, and most of all be sure to smile. Prospects will welcome enthusiastic, energetic positive people that have a planned call.

And any experienced call center training professional will tell you that you must get "to" the Gatekeeper vs. "past" the Gatekeeper. Too often sales rep's try to get past the gatekeeper. Make them your ally. Get their name. Ask for that gatekeeper on the second try, and ask them when you should try back. Chances are they're more likely to remember you, and if you can leave a good impression, this can only open up the lines of communication. They may even recommend you the next time their tasked with a project by their manager. Hopefully these customer service training tips can make your calling time more productive and your bottom line results more profitable.
