List of Conference Call Etiquette

Conference Call Etiquette that can help make conference calls more pleasant, run smoother, and help avoid embarrassment. I’m sure the list I’ve put together isn’t all inclusive but it does cover the major things I have experienced or learned about conference call etiquette during the course of all those calls I’ve been on.

Try to avoid calling into a conference call from a cell phone whenever possible, find a quiet place, be on time for the call, don’t use the hold button, do not put the conference call on hold if your phone has hold music or those annoying beeps that sound every few seconds, be cautious with cordless phones, avoid shuffling papers because it sounds very loud on phone and most important conference call etiquette is to be polite.
