1u7hN0y5myn2~ It is more cheaper to call the customer by Skype, if the customer online, it is free.

hi mico, you'd better make it multiple-choice. :P

Its a good job.not to use chatting tools at work place.

the sound effect of the skype is very good, that is to say, you can hear the customer very clear if you call him/her by skype.8X f)vZ3{ I,?0mO
And if you have a webcam, you can use it to see your customer, the effect is also good.5H!_1jDFP+w0q9\1w
Besides, the cost for skype calling is cheap.

in our office, i usually send email to customers, who are friends of our boss. If need, customer will call our boss or our boss call them.7z"swU_\)i

1mSrbRLCl Sometimes, the customers call directly to our office, usually i will talk with them, only a few words.

it depends!
+`PeRV#] I1bZXu\ Normally i use emails,as it has the"cc,to"functions,i can let my boss know what i've done,and the most important thing,emails can be used as record.
,X$Y/^ y!n8_0Ze4j Phone calls is the most efficient way,but i would  send an additional email to customer to confirm the converstion after phone talking.

It's not easy to answer your question. First , I send email to my clients, this is the common mode at present. Second, If the clients don't reply to your e-mail, you must give him a call . Last, you can talk to your clients in MSN, SKYPE,YAHOO after you send e-mail to him or call him by phone.:)

I prefer sending email to them to speaking with them face to face or even ear to ear?!!;P 8FWl CZ0\1B&wm

I'm afraid I couldn't understand their English...

always email.
lX3` y5zP/F no customers on skype and msn.

2007-11-8 17:12 nuttychen
Always I made the first contact by e-mail.'UL:z0W&NvZp
If there is further connecting, msn or skype.W&A;g1lrJ\
Skype is used more frequent. Because our customers use skype most.
