    How to Make an Efficient Phone Call
  
 

       Nowadays you need to make phone calls every day. When you make a telephone call to an office, a bank or any other places, it is useful to know the extension number of the person to be called. The operator will know this, but it might save any delay if you mention it first. Before you dial, you should always have the necessary information with you. In this way, you can make a correct and useful telephone call.

 
     You need a list of points -- dates, time of arrival and so on. This can help you to make an efficient telephone call. Proper preparation may even prevent you from making a second telephone call. You should use a telephone pad in order to take down the information of the call.
