As per usual... I am in the area:
Tomorrow (WEDNESDAY) accepting appointments anytime after 3pm.
Thursday 11:30am onwards.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Oh oh oh!!!! Sorry, on a serious note; and please read knowing I'm trying to convey this in the nicest of ways to ensure your ability to book...
I appreciate your discretion as well as my own... if for any reason you are on the phone with me especially for an extended period of time and I politely request for you to call me back, there's usually a good reason for it. For example: going into details, rates or services etc etc; while I'm in a store or out for instance-with people an ears length away, is not an ideal situation. I shouldn't have to repeat myself several times to get that message across without sounding crass.
I hate coming across short or even rude. I take pride and enjoy making sure your comfortable- having any questions you do have, answered. Please understand that although I try not to answer my phone when feeling my ability to openly communicate is not possible, but some things are sensitive in nature and would only hope you can appreciate (for my sake and your own) that when I can't discuss certain things because of where I am or who I'm around... that you understand and don't persist past the point of setting the wrong impression.
So, in short- note to self gentlemen... instead of yammering on and on after I've requested a better time to talk, take a hint *laughing* Theres a big difference between someone calling to make an appointment... and someone asking questions like "Tell me more about yourself; what do you look like; what services do you provide" *laugh* Appose to, Hi- how are you...I'd like to book a 3pm are you available" They are completely different conversations and I have to sensor what I say and what I can't...but I don't always know until I do answer- especially with the dynamics involved listed above, whether I'm able to or not. First instance mentioned can be done anywhere- the latter of the two, is situational.
If you get the feeling I'm not able to openly discuss or REQUEST for you to call me back- just do it... and realize there's a reason behind it. I may be out running errands and when you call, it may be an appropriate time... but if I'm on the phone for 10 minutes and en route or in the process of doing something, respectfully- call back at your convenience if asked. Please be respectful and know without a doubt if this does happen (which isn't often) I will more then likely explain in more detail when able too.
Thank you...
Francesca
