Here are some good expressions to get the meeting started on your conference call:

Good afternoon, my name’s Sanjay and I am going to be hosting today’s meeting.

I joined this webinar to improve my business English.

Hi guys, my name’s Julio and I’m a financial consultant for a global firm.

Hi everyone, I’m Jennifer and I’m a sales rep at Nike.

Hello, my name’s Eliza and I’m a junior copywriter for MMU.

So, you made it onto the Teams call, now how do you introduce yourself? It’s always good to keep your introductions “short and sweet” (brief):

Seldom have I heard such a good presentation.

Not only is there a company gym but also a sauna.

Never have I seen such poor financial results.

Should you see Angela, please pass on my regards.

Not only do they sound very professional but they are also a nice way to emphasise a statement. The use of inversions (where we put the subject before the verb) are used in formal English and are a great way of making yourself sound proficient in English.

Thanks for the invite, I’m looking forward to the webinar tomorrow.

Should you not be able to attend the meeting, please decline the invitation and I’ll try to reschedule.
