红板砖也提前祝大家在本次广交会大有斩获。
01
开始一场精彩的直播
即使是以英语为母语的人也应该保持简单,不要太复杂。商业直播有时会变得沉闷,没有多少人喜欢看大量的PowerPoint,你可以加快PPT的切换速度,这样人们仍然会感兴趣。你可以试试这些有用的短语来做演示。
简单介绍你自己,然后保持一个自然和轻快的语速和语调,这会让每个人都感到轻松:
- Welcome everybody, my name is [your name] and I am the [job title] for [you company name].
- Hi, I’m [your name] and I’m the [job title] for [you company name].
- Good morning/afternoon/evening ladies and gentlemen, I’m [your name].
- Hi everyone, I’m [your name]. I’m going to keep this brief, as I know you’re all busy people. I’m going to make this quick for you…
注意:记得用收缩词 “I’m “而不是 “I am”,这样听起来更亲切,不那么正式。
02
介绍你直播的主题
在你自我介绍之后,就可以介绍你的直播主题了。
- Today I’m here to talk to you about…
- I’m delighted to be here today to tell you about…
- Today I would like to outline our plans for…
这给你的听众提供了一个大纲,或者说是一个关于你要讲的内容的想法。下面是一些短语,可以为你的演讲提供结构,使你的信息更整齐、更有条理。
- Firstly I’ll talk about… 或者 I’ll start with some general information on…
- Then I will look at… 或者 then we’ll go over…
- And finally we’ll look at… 或者 To conclude we’ll touch on…
- I will be glad to answer any questions that you may have at the end of this presentation.
尽量经常从你的笔记中抬起头来,这样你就可以吸引听众的注意力,引起他们的兴趣,并放松下来。如果你犯了一些错误,一般人们都会原谅你。
03
结束你的直播
这是一个非常简单的部分。一旦你做完演讲,准备结束,就用这些短语:
- Well, that brings me to the end of my presentation, thanks so much for listening.
- It was a real pleasure being here today. Goodbye and thank you.
- Well that’s it from me. Thanks a lot.
04
开始在线会议
这些短语你要么是你会听到的,要么需要自己在直播的时候与人交谈时使用到的。这些都是有用的短语,用来检查大家是否都在现场,是否已经加入了对话。你可以通常可以这样说,以确保每个人都能正常参与。
- Are we all on?
- Can I ask that we all state our names, please?
- I’m here. It’s [your name] in [your city].
- Can everybody hear me?
05
在视频会议中做澄清
在直播或电话会议上交谈时,你的互联网连接有可能会很差或通话质量会很差。在这些情况下,你可能会错过别人说的一些内容。
- Could you speak more slowly, please?
- Could you repeat that, please?
- Would you mind spelling that for me, please?
- Could you explain that in another way, please?
- I’m afraid I didn’t get that.
06
在对话中休息一下
直播或电话会议是有压力的,完全可以为自己解释一下,但确保你要有礼貌和清晰,如果你需要休息一下,可以试试这些短语。
- [Your name] speaking. I need to leave for ten minutes. Is that okay with everyone?
当你回来的时候,让大家知道你回来了,你可以说:
- [Your name] here. I’m back on the line again.
- [Your name] just coming back in here, thanks everyone.
07
在会议中表现得更加积极主动
如果本次网上广交会你需要开一些在线商务会议,最好的办法是尽量讲清楚,并且要坚定 firm (strong)。但请记住,“firm” does not mean “rude” or “pushy.”。
如果你不在短语中加上最重要的 “please”和 “thank you”,就会容易显得咄咄逼人。这些礼貌用语在商务英语中是很有作用的。在线会议是让所有人知道和理解你正在谈论的东西。当你在商务会议或参加电话会议时,你可以尝试使用这些短语。
1. 如果你不小心说漏了嘴或阻止了别人说话,你可以使用这些短语:
- Sorry, I interrupted you. You were saying…?
- Please go on…
- After you…
2. 如果你不确定某人说了什么,用这些短语来澄清:
- I’m sorry, but could you speak up a little?
- I didn’t quite hear that, sorry, can you say that again?
- I didn’t catch that last bit. Can you say it again please?
3. 有问题时的表达:
- Am I to understand that…
- Sorry, but just to clarify…
- So, what we’re saying is…
4. 同意别人的观点:
- That’s an excellent point [person’s name], I totally agree with you on that.
- Okay, I think we are all on the same page here…
- Yes, I get what you’re saying…
5. 与人意见相左时:希望你不会经常用到这些,但如果万不得已要使用是,请记住要有礼貌但要坚定。
- I’m sorry but I think you may have that slightly wrong…
- From our perspective, it’s a little different. Let me explain.
- Well, yes and no—can I tell you how we see it?
08
成功地进行谈判
当你参加谈判时,有时你会赢,有时你会输。如果对方已经突破你的底线,不妨试试这些短语,让谈判回到正轨;如果你们的意见不一致的话,就把谈判引向对你有利的方向。
- I understand that we can’t do that, but can we discuss some other alternatives?
- I hear what you’re saying, but our bottom line is very clear on this one.
- This is the deal breaker for us, we can’t budge.
记住: be polite, but be firm(要有礼貌但也要坚定),一个专业的商务人士永远不会失去对自己情绪的控制。
09
为未来的会议做规划
当你想再次与他们沟通时,请确保你用这些短语给他们留下良好的第一印象。
- I’d like to set up a meeting with you at your earliest convenience. When are you free?
- Are you free to talk again next week?
- When can we talk about this again?
- How does 2:30 p.m. Thursday sound?
- Does Thursday at 2:30 p.m. suit you?
在对方同意时间后,要养成喜欢最后确认一次,只是为了确定对方真的听到了:
- Thursday at 2:30 p.m. then, that would be fine.
- Okay, I look forward to seeing you then.
- Thursday at 2.30 p.m. Looking forward to it, see you then.
- Thursday at 2.30 p.m., bye for now.
英语是全世界商业的通用语言。你的英语越好,你作为员工的价值就越大。Keep listening and keep talking!
