Thinks to be consider while doing Audio Conference Call

Firstly, here is a simple description of what an audio conference call is before discussing what to do and what not to do during audio multi lines call.

Audio conferencing refers to any situation in which multiple parties or members are permitted to listen into or participate in the audio portion of a phone call. These can be designed in two ways, either the person organizing the call phones to other participants and adds them into the call or the participants call into the conference themselves. These calls are usually used for trainings, executive meeting or seminars. But, sometimes conference calls are not conducted perfectly and some are being cut off or line is not clear and there are unpleasant sounds in the background.

Here are some things on what to do and not what to do during audio conference calls:

Ignore noisy place while call

It is best to stay in the most quite place, preferably in a quiet room in the house, if you are conducting the audio conference call from home and if your pets and children are playing. This way the participants will not have a hard time listening to you while you are speaking. If, for some reason you cannot find a quiet place, you can use the mute function of the phone when you are not talking.

Do not call using mobile phone

To conduct an audio conferencing using a mobile phone is a bad idea. There is presence of background noise in mobile calls. However, if you have no choice but to use mobile phone, you can use the mute function if you are not speaking. This will lessen the distraction on the side of the participants.

Be on time for the scheduled call

Being on time is important like normal meetings and it is not considered nice when others wait for you to catch up on the lost time; especially when you are the one who will conduct the audio conference call. Remember, every one’s time is important.

Avoid putting the call on hold

If you are putting the call on hold participants, it will distracts and the concentration of the participants and they will be disrupted. It also becomes hard to catch up when you are not focused. It is better to hang up and call again if it is necessary. In case you need to leave the call and you are not sure at what time you can join back again, you can always request for rescheduling the conference call service.

Avoid using cordless phones

Cordless or wireless phones are liable to static noise and this happens when you get out of range or if any other device is in the perimeter of the range that interferes with the phone. Cordless phone is not the best device to conduct an audio conferencing.
