Ways To End A Business Phone Call

There is always that one client who seems to ramble. Since they are so chatty, it can be difficult to bring the call to a close. Below are some tactics you can use to politely end a business phone call.

Ask Direct Questions

When a talkative client is asked an open-ended question, they can take a long time to answer the question. To avoid this, only ask them very direct and relevant questions. Not only will this help keep the length of the call to a minimum, it will also help you get to the heart of the matter.

Offer A Solution

Once you have uncovered what is on the client's mind, do your best to offer a solution in a concise fashion. This approach will let you control the direction of the conversation. In the end, it can minimize the amount of tangents the client goes on. 

Discuss Next Steps & Say Goodbye

To conclude the call, it is always a good idea to discuss next steps. This should be the first indication to the client that the current call is ending. After the next steps have been established, you can politely say goodbye. That's all there is to it!
