Program Overview: What is Telephone Etiquette?
Telephone Etiquette is a 13-hour program for SDRs, account managers, service, and collections teams living on the phone. Across 5 modules it covers call fundamentals, structure, live objections, difficult conversations, and call blitzes. It suits commercial staff who make or take calls and want phone confidence.
Training is interactive: every concept is taught through live call role plays: participants open, discover, handle objections, and deliver bad news on simulated calls with peer feedback. Facilitated coaching turns each round into phone habits participants use on their next real call.
Teams struggle with call reluctance, winged conversations, and callbacks that never happen. This program builds phone discipline: structure, presence, and follow-through. Your team gains calls that move deals.
A 3-hour capstone closes the program, where participants complete a live call blitz and leave with a personal call playbook.

Make Telephone Conversations Clearer From the Opening to Agreed Follow-Through
Edstellar develops telephone skills through structured conversations rather than scripts learned in isolation. Participants practice openings, discovery, objections, and difficult messages, then combine these techniques in coached call sequences. Feedback helps them refine listening, tone, call control, and follow-through while building a practical playbook for their own commercial or service responsibilities.
- Step 01
Consult
We explore the calls participants handle and where conversations lose direction, identifying needs in openings, discovery questions, objection handling, difficult messages, and agreed next steps.
- Step 02
Plan
We establish voice and call fundamentals, build a clear conversation structure, then practice objections and difficult exchanges before combining the techniques in a coached call blitz.
- Step 03
Align
We align facilitation with telephone-based sales and service experience, matching practice to the responsibilities and confidence levels of account, care, and collections participants.
- Step 04
Customize
We adapt fictional customer calls, voicemail tasks, and objections to familiar commercial situations, giving participants realistic practice without disclosing customer details or involving actual outbound contacts.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants rehearse discovery calls, respond to objections, and deliver difficult news in role plays, receiving feedback on listening, pacing, clarity, and constructive closure.
- Step 06
Evaluate
We assess the final call sequence and personal playbook for professional openings, purposeful questions, appropriate objection responses, and specific follow-through that reflects what the caller needs.
