Client relationships are crucial to any business and maintaining them is a key component to future success. In an age where many communications are done via email, using the wrong words can change a client’s perception of you and your organization in an adverse way. Here are 7 phrases to avoid, and what you should be saying instead.
Key Takeaways:
- Be mindful of how and what pronouns you use when talking to a client
- Make sure you have open communication with the client
