Why You Should Take Notes Before Calling A Client

Have you ever been on a phone call and noticed your mind start to wander? If so, you are not alone! Below are reasons why taking notes prior to the call can prevent this from happening.

Jot Down Ideas
Some people do not plan ahead before getting on the phone with a client. However, this approach could prove to be disastrous if you are completely unprepared for it. Getting your thoughts out in writing will help you feel confident in your ideas. 

Make A List
When you have a phone call scheduled with someone, it is likely that you will be discussing multiple topics throughout the conversation. If that rings true for you, it is a good idea to make a list of every item you want to delve into. After all, it is better to be safe than sorry! 

Determine The Best Form of Communication
After you have written out your list, you may discover that an email would be a more appropriate form of communication. In this instance, you can explain to the client that a phone call is not necessary and send over the information via email. That way, the client can respond to the email when it is convenient for them.
