TECHNIQUES TO ENHANCE

Master effective collection techniques before handling a call. Have information in front of you. Review the collection history. Anticipate your response to their objection. Never misrepresent yourself. Never threaten any action that you do not intend to take. Never curse or use vulgarity. Never refuse to identify yourself. Never refuse to transfer a complaint call to your supervisor.
