Communication is not only a method to share information, but also a way to exchange understanding. Business communication is a process that people exchange information, transmitting feelings, and exchanging ideas in business affairs with certain messages. With the acceleration of globalization, many companies have had to do business across borders, and they will meet many issues because of cultural differences. Effective business communication will help people have a successful conversation in the business field. Three factors will influence business communication which include socializing, both verbal and nonverbal communication, and keep silent.

Three factors that will affect business communication

Socializing plays an essential role in business communication. Being social also means that the staff is fully prepared to promote their brand to the community, and staff has to put enough time and find resources to build the relationship in the social media with the people who have the same opinions and views. Listening, learning social media vocabulary, and having strategic communication are three essential aspects of socializing.

To be specific, people can get various feelings about a brand from different people on social media, therefore; there is never a shortage of information exchange on social media. Listening enables people to distinguish the difference between the question and worries. The more energy people put into listening on social media, the more skillfully information they will share (Breakenridge,2017).

Socializing on the Internet is often met with social media vocabulary. In order to adapt to different online social environments, communicators have to learn unique social media vocabulary. When staff learns new social media vocabulary, they can also share it with other employees in order to strengthen the relationship.

Being more strategic in communication is helpful in socializing. Employees should actively organize important market trends and data analysis, and when they are more proficient in analyzing data, they will be able to have effective communication with the executives and other employees.

Both non-verbal communication and verbal communication will influence business communication.Business communication is not full of rational, but emotional people and perceptual. Non-verbal communication is fifteen times better than verbal communication. A successful business communicator should achieve that non-verbal communication should be linked to verbal messages. When an employee reports to his supervisor, there is a conflict between verbal and non-verbal descriptions, which can make the conversation ineffective and unclear. For example, when an employee rolls his eyes while saying he values his work, the boss will not understand what he means. Therefore, the information gets out of control.

For the verbal aspect, when people use verbal communication to communicate, it is not a simple conversation, but more importantly, the deeper message that is conveyed to the listener through verbal communication. A “Good morning” message is not a simple message to say hello, this is a message about the relationship. For example, “hello” from the employees in Starbucks to the consumers is a piece of information to express the importance of customers to Starbucks. In addition, people need to have proficient English skills when they are involved in multinational business. Malyuga and Orlova(2018) state that English has become the global language. Two things that can help people, whether native English speakers or not, first thing is that to be known as excellent business English speakers are to modify their English wording by understanding more about the different ways of using practical English. Second thing is that to make the audience feel warm and welcoming through communication skills (Carté, 2008).People in business communication should focus on each message because each of them will express a unique meaning. Verbal and non-verbal communication also influence affects the entire business communication experience.

Proper silence is also important in business. According to Agarwal (2019), the author states that “Loose Lips Sink Ships” is a method for businessmen to maintain caution while complying with the law. Proper silence is essential for “Loose Lips Sink Ships”. The workplace is a battlefield, and everyone wants to win the war. For the top of the workplace, they can't talk carelessly, and other consultants can't talk rashly either. For business executives, they are closer to confidential documents and sensitive information, so they should be appropriately quiet in public places to protect confidential documents. But business leaders still need to be careful about saying what they want others to know about their intentions.
