A clear welcome helps a visitor understand who they will meet and where to go.

The idea

Use a polite greeting, name the contact and give the meeting place. Formal forms address the visitor respectfully.

Examples

  • Buenos días, bienvenida a nuestra oficina.Good morning, welcome to our office.
  • ¿Tiene una cita con la señora Ramos?Do you have an appointment with Ms Ramos?
  • Se reunirá con nuestro director en la sala azul.You will meet our director in the blue room.
  • Mi compañera Ana la acompañará al segundo piso.My colleague Ana will accompany you to the second floor.
  • El equipo de ventas los espera junto a la recepción.The sales team is waiting for you by reception.
  • Si lo desea, puede esperar aquí; su contacto llegará pronto.If you wish, you can wait here; your contact will arrive soon.

Watch out
