someone, your name, profile and profile
picture make your first impression. Make
sure your user name is appropriate, that the
location is accurate for the business you’re
conducting, and your image is professional.

Other Important
things
13. Send a courtesy check: The best way to start a
conversation is to send a quick message via
Skype asking if the person is free and the
appointed time still works for them.
Sending a simple, “Hello. Just wanted to make
sure this is still a good time for our call” is a nice
way to give someone time to prepare.
If they don’t respond immediately, resist the
temptation to bombard them with query
messages. Either they’re there and ready, or
they’re not. Be patient and make the right
(polite) impression.

14. Once a video call is started,
make sure you maintain eye
contact with the webcam not
the image on your screen. This
can be tricky because the image
of the person you’re speaking
to is usually below the webcam
Ideally your webcam will show
your upper torso, as if you were
sitting across a table from the
other individual. Assuming that’s
the case, it’s important to
maintain good posture, avoid
slouching, leaning from side to
side, or fidgeting with a pencil or
in anything else that may indicate
you’re distracted.
Depending upon the placement
of the microphone on your
computer, relatively unobtrusive
sounds like tapping a pencil,
typing on the keyboard, or even
background conversations can
be heard
Video/Audio
Chatting

Do a background check: If you’re using the video feature of
Skype, check the background of your setting to ensure it projects
a professional image. Similarly, avoid calling from places where
background movement and activity may be distracting.
15. .
As a means of business communication, instant messaging via Skype is
certainly less strict than email or by letter. A certain laxity for formal grammar
guidelines, capitalization and the like is accepted. Typing rapidly occasionally
includes minor errors, and these are often overlooked as ‘part of the territory,’
by Skype users.

TIP
Don’t Chat Cute
16. ..
There are times, however, when
we get interrupted and don’t
get a chance to properly end a
chat. That’s okay. It happens.
However, it’s polite to ping our
colleague an instant message
saying that we got interrupted
when we next get a chance. This
is especially important if we
were the one to initiate the chat.
This feature is a good way to
quickly share relevant files with
our colleagues,
sometime this does not notify
the recipient of a pending file
transfer in the same way it flags
up a new message.
it is generally best to ask our
colleague whether that would be
okay, or if they would prefer us
to email it to them
We can do so without
interrupting our Skype call/chat
as long as we devote sufficient
mental attention to that
conversation. Be aware however
Other
features Cheers!” can go a long way to maintaining our relationships with
our Skype colleagues
