Display contact's important business information when receiving a call

In the past couple of weeks, we showed you how to arrange your contacts’ names in your phone contact list or get rid of duplicates in Contact Editor.

Today we want to talk about something that would serve anyone in the business world - how to edit your contact list so that the contact’s name, company and title show when you’re receiving a phone call.
If you’re working in a company, or as a salesman, a headhunter or manager, basically in any area where you know a lot of people, it’s difficult to remember each person’s entire profile (where they work, what is their position etc). And when receiving a phone call from someone, you would probably feel very uncomfortable if the person on the other side of the line realizes you don’t remember who they are or where they are calling from.

That’s why many people store the contact’s full information in their phone so that each time they get the call, they can greet the person right away without asking or checking who they are.

  

This is a great tip for anyone who wants to create and maintain positive business relationships, and today we want to show you how to use Contact Editor to achieve exactly that. :)

How to display contact’s important information when receiving a call?


How the phone displays contact’s information differs from one phone type to another. In this post, we will be focusing on using Contact Editor to arrange all important information so that you know at any time who is on the other side of the line.

1. Run Contact Editor and log in with your Google account.

2. Check if the contact’s important business information such as their company name, department or title is entered. (If it isn’t you can easily fill it in and click on “Save”)

3. Select the names of the contacts that you want to edit (if you want to edit all contacts, click on the Given name field, which will automatically select all contacts)

4. Click on the Combine All shortcut button as shown below and pick what information you want to merge (in this case it’s Family and given name, Organization, Department and Title) and then click on Confirm.
You can also choose how to separate all that information, we chose to separate it with a slash (“/”)
