Telephone Talk

Ava Lucanus from Edge Communication was honoured to be featured in this month’s issue of workforce development magazine, IMPACT.

Many businesses do not recognise the importance of getting it right over the phone. Even though the telephone is often the first point of contact for your customers. That means when you answer the phone or make a call, you are responsible for the first impression of your company, in your customer’s mind.

It takes only 3 seconds to form a first impression over the phone. Your caller cannot see you, so he/she will make an instant judgement of you and your company simply by your tone of your voice. In the first crucial first 3 seconds, your customer will determine whether they trust you enough to do business with you or go elsewhere.

Happy Clients

Ava is a very natural and engaging speaker

Ava is a very natural and engaging speaker, who I noticed a few years ago and have experienced many times in different settings since. Her language is very clear and pragmatic and she communicates on the level of her audience, to make it most relevant to them. We have engaged Ava as a communication expert twice in the past 2 years to train our staff in communication skills and we have always been impressed with her abilities as a speaker and trainer. I highly recommend her.

Engaging and Captivating

Ava presented two professional development workshops, the aim being to create an awareness of the importance of aligning customer experience with our brand promise. Ava did a wonderful job of achieving this aim and enabling our professional staff to identify how they can ensure their service delivery aligns our client’s experience with our firms values and our promise of “great people, great results.” Her seminar was engaging and captivated the attendees to understand better the customer journey, the use of different types of “language” and the importance of a customer service system. We all thoroughly enjoyed and benefited from her knowledge and have taken on board many of her ideas to improve our client service approach. Ava is an extremely professional and experienced communications consultant. She uses humour, interactive techniques and factual information to ensure she gets her message across to a diverse group of people. I would not hesitate to recommend Ava.
