Four main stages of the business communications management process have been allocated: evaluation of the situation, planning and programming, action and communication, and program evaluation.

The features of the market of banking services, influencing the management of business communications of modern enterprises, are considered: the use of individual communication channels for each target audience; positioning of the enterprise, not the product; the preference for personal contacts over mass ones; the ratio of business communication tools used depends on the goals and capabilities of the enterprise.
