If you experience feelings of anxiety before getting on the phone with someone, you are not alone. Luckily, there are things you can do to combat phone anxiety. Continue reading to find out what they are. 

Speak Up
It is natural to speak softly when you are nervous. However, increasing the volume of your voice will help you speak with confidence. When you speak up, people are more likely to listen to what you have to say. 

Have A Positive Tone of Voice
Remember to maintain a positive tone of voice throughout the duration of the call. This is important to do even if the person on the other end of the line is frustrated. Being optimistic about the situation at hand can only make things better. 

Mind Your Body Language
Even though the person you are speaking to will not be able to see you, body language can still have an impact on the conversation. It is a good idea to stand up whenever possible during phone calls. This will help you improve your posture.
