提升对话效果的3个技巧
使用清晰的时间表述
避免模糊表达如"soon"或"later",改用具体时间:
- ❌ "The technician will come soon."
- ✅ "The technician will arrive within 20 minutes."
主动提供选择
根据Cornell酒店管理学院研究(2024),提供2-3个选项的对话方式能减少客户决策压力:
- "For breakfast, we have the Western set (with scrambled eggs and bacon) or the Asian set (with congee and dim sum). Which would you prefer?"
文化敏感词替换
- 避免宗教相关问候如"Merry Christmas",改用中性表达:
"Enjoy the holiday season!"
最新行业术语与科技应用
随着智能酒店普及,2024年新增高频词汇包括:
