Categories and Types of Callers

In our day-to-day life we come across many type of callers, there are different categories of callers: 1. Non-stop talker: To handle a caller who is continuously talking over phone and not allowing you to utter a single word can be tackled in following ways: Hear initially: This goes with every caller you come across, you should hear clearly and patiently in initial minutes of calling so that he should not have any complaint that the receiver is not listening to me. Jump in when the caller begins to repeat the story: Some callers get carried away and repeat their phrases, as a good call handling person one should prevent this thing to happen and barge in to stop the person to blabber un-necessarily and waste time. Interrupt and try to catch the person’s name: to stop the person to drag his talks, it’s good to say “sorry for interrupting…can I have your full name”?

Google Search India Pakistan Ad

Talking about the latest Google Search India Pakistan Ad brings tears in my eyes, tears whenever I see it, tears when I think about the concept. The stories my granny told me when I was kid. I have grown up listening these types of stories from her and always tried to relate myself to the situation. In the ad the optimum usage of the search service is shown where at one click you can search anything in this world. I like the way the old man narrates his stories to his grand daughter and she finds the sweet shop of her Yusuf Uncle and how the grand son of Yusuf Uncle plans to apply for Visa and the best part is that he even checks the weather in India and carefully takes umbrella. The last window on phone shows that the girl is checking the flight timings and the current status of the flight online and tells the taxi driver to speed up. All these minute details make this ad the best of all. I also like the way both the friends reunite and share their nick names full of lov...

The Indian wedding has undergone extensive changes and, therefore, wedding dresses have also witnessed a sea change. Gone are the days when brides used to shop for their trousseau from a local shop in a single visit. Now, it’s a different story. Brides, and even grooms, are choosy, and the collection of local shops finds it hard to please them.

The fabrics, weaves and styles, all have to be exclusive, yet depicting her own style and persona. Colors and Trends Forget what your friends wore in the last season. This year, everything is new – from colors to trends. However, it’s a back-to-basics culture. Brides are just crazy for traditional colors. The inspiration is taken from old Bollywood and Hollywood dresse...
