The tone of your voice is above all. Too high or too low tone will create a negative impression on customer.

The body language should be aligned with the words you speak.

Your dressing if you are meeting the customer in person.

2. Dress code-not dressing properly such as not neat and not clean appearance.

4. STOP looking your watch and your phone.

Thank You all very much for your participation, i agree with you sirs.

Here are some factors that create a negative impression:

• Making the customer wait

• Not answering the phone promptly

• Not saying “please” and/or “thank you”

• Speaking loudly or condescendingly to customers or colleagues

• Making faces, frowning, acting distant, not smiling

• Looking disheveled or like you do not care about your appearance

• A poor handshake

• Focusing on another task while addressing or servicing a customer.

Remember, impressions stay with those you meet, especially customers, and once registered;

negative impressions are difficult to overcome.
