沒有人能保證每個電話都能接到要找的呼叫對象,也很難保證不錯過接聽電話。如果有人轉(zhuǎn)接,這兩種情況都可以避免。電話可能轉(zhuǎn)接到要找的人,也可能接到相關(guān)的同事,或者語音信箱。
禮貌
無論轉(zhuǎn)電話或者將來電臨時掛起,都要以禮相待(courtesy)。在轉(zhuǎn)電話之前先要問:“您是否愿意我?guī)湍D(zhuǎn)到(like to be transferred)……?”
⊙I’m sorry, Mr.Garcia is not in at the moment.Can I transfer you to hisvoice mail?
對不起,加西亞先生現(xiàn)在不在。要我把您的電話轉(zhuǎn)到他的語音信箱嗎?
⊙Please hold while I transfer you to the Customer Service Department.
我把您的電話轉(zhuǎn)給客戶服務(wù)部,請稍候。
⊙Ms.Kerry is available to take your call.I can transfer you to her private line.
克里女士現(xiàn)在方便接聽您的電話,我可以把您的電話轉(zhuǎn)到她的專線。
⊙Let me transfer you now.
我現(xiàn)在就幫您轉(zhuǎn)。
⊙If you like, I can transfer you to a technician.
如果您愿意,我可以把電話轉(zhuǎn)給一個技術(shù)人員。
⊙Mr.Samuels is currently on the other line.Would you like to hold?Or I can transfer you to his voice mail?
塞繆爾斯先生正在接聽別的電話。您愿意稍等一下嗎?或者我?guī)湍D(zhuǎn)到他的語音信箱?
⊙Would you like me to transfer you to the Billing Department?
我可以把您的電話轉(zhuǎn)到結(jié)算部嗎?
⊙Can I transfer you?
我能轉(zhuǎn)您的電話嗎?
提供號碼
如果來電者同意轉(zhuǎn)電話,你要告訴他那個相應(yīng)的電話號碼,以防(in case)電話被轉(zhuǎn)后沒有接通,也可以為來電者的下次來電提供直撥號碼。
⊙I can transfer you to Ms.Staple’s desk now.Her extension is 880.
我現(xiàn)在可以把您的電話轉(zhuǎn)到斯特普爾女士的辦公桌那里,她的分機號碼是880。
⊙I will transfer you to Mr.Jeffrey’s number now.His direct number is 8876-8766.
我現(xiàn)在把您的電話轉(zhuǎn)到杰弗里先生那里。他的號碼是8876-8766。
要等線路轉(zhuǎn)接成功后再掛斷。
A:I will transfer you to Mr. Jeffery's number now.
B:Thank you!
C:Hello, Jim Jeffery.(A hangs up the line)
A:我馬上把您的電話轉(zhuǎn)到賈弗里先生那里。
B:謝謝您。
C:您好,(我是)吉姆·賈弗里。(A掛斷電話)
再轉(zhuǎn)電話
如果一個電話被轉(zhuǎn)遍整個公司還沒有找到合適的人,你不妨記下來電者的姓名和號碼,在找到合適人選(appropriate person)后再回電話給他。
A:I can transfer you to the Billing Department.
B:I called Billing first!They transferred me to the Accounting Department, who transferred me to Finance, who then transferred me to you. Isn't there anyone who can help me?
A:I'm sorry for your frustration, Sir. Let me take your contact information and understand your situation better. I will find out who the best person to help you is and have that person call you back.
A:我可以把您的電話轉(zhuǎn)給結(jié)算部。
B:我最開始打給了結(jié)算部,他們把我的電話轉(zhuǎn)給了會計部,會計部又把我的電話轉(zhuǎn)給了財務(wù)部,財務(wù)部又把電話轉(zhuǎn)給了你。你們就沒有人可以幫我嗎?
A:對于您的煩惱,我深表歉意。讓我記錄下您的聯(lián)系信息,更多地了解一下您的情況。我會找到幫助您的最佳人選,并讓他回電話給您。
總結(jié)在現(xiàn)代社會,信息就是商機,錯過一個電話導(dǎo)致錯失一次掙錢機會的例子屢見不鮮,轉(zhuǎn)接電話能避免這種情況。在轉(zhuǎn)電話的過程中要有耐心,且保持禮貌,充分理解來電者的意愿,做到轉(zhuǎn)接準(zhǔn)確。沒有人愿意像皮球一樣被踢來踢去。
