So you have a long winded caller and they will not stop talking. Why, they don’t even take breaths! What to do? They just don’t have a clue we are busy. Here are some tips on Eliminating The Long Winded Caller:
1. Interrupt them and get the immediately back on the subject
2. Tell them you appreciate the story about XYZ but you have two minutes before a meeting.
3. When you call them – tell them you only have 5 minutes to chat so you need to make it quick.
4. Call them when you know they are away from their desk or gone home and leave a voice mail
