When sending an email to request an appointment for a Conference Call or meeting – be precise and to the point in what you plan to discuss and how much time you are requesting. It will help to prepare both parties so the call can be productive and efficient. For example:
Joe, I would like to schedule 30 minutes next week for a conference call with you to discuss:
1. The status of XYZ project 2. Marketing materials for the ABC program 3. Preparations for the LMN conference
I’m available either: (list three possibilities). Do any of those times work for you? If not, please let me know what is convenient for you so I may plan accordingly.
I look forward to the call (meeting).
Thank you, John
Sharing as much information during the initial request helps both parties to be beneficial, effective and professional participants during the conference call. And after the meeting, don’t miss the perfect opportunity to follow up with a handwritten note! It will make a huge and memorable impact.
Do you have a ‘manner’ or question you would like to see covered in a post? Feel free to send me your thoughts, I would love to hear from you. My goal is to help students to feel more comfortable and confident in the social and professional skills; do you know someone who would enjoy this post? If so, please share it and encourage them to sign up to receive Manner Monday? I would appreciate it!
And if you’re new to Manner Monday, I’d love for you to take a minute to learn more about why I started it. You can click here to read my very first post that tells all about it.
Thanks for reading!
