Telephone Etiquette

You are here: Home / Home Study / Telephone Etiquette


Telephone Etiquette & Best Practices for Funeral Homes & Cemeteries.

The Telephone is the lifeline of the funeral home and cemetery. Most all first calls, price shopping inquiries and general business is conducted over the phone.

The goal of this training program is to heighten the sensitivities and improve the abilities of individuals in our profession concerning basic telephone skills and etiquette. More business opportunities are lost due to poor phone service and poor telephone treatment than poor products. Meeting our clientele by phone can be very successful or just the opposite.

This program will better equip the staff to professionally interact with the public, create additional credibility for the firm and smooth crisis call situations.

Here are some of the components of this program:

  • Phone Philosophy 101
