7. Leaving Recorded Messages on Voicemail: One of the most valuable features of sending recorded phone messages is that the technology knows when a person picks up the phone, versus voicemail.
First recorded by Vaughn Monroe back in 1954, Mr. Sandman, has been a song that has lasted through generations. With too many covers to list, the hit song is transformed in this voicemail greeting adaptation.

Reassuring the caller that they contacted the correct number or reached the person they intended helps reduce the number of hang-ups and wasted messages you’ll receive. Here are a few notes on how to leave the best greeting possible, along with some voicemail message examples you can use in your own company!
Twilio is a low-cost cloud service that provides APIs that add communication services to applications. We bought our phone number, which costs $1.00 per month, even if we don’t use for any calls or messages. Twilio charges $0.085 a minute for incoming calls and $0.013 a minute for outgoing calls. Sending or receiving a text message from our Twilio number costs $0.0075, while recording a voicemail is only $0.0025. Even if we receive 100 messages a month, the cost of those, plus the phone number, is only two or three dollars. To increase the security of this task, it might be a good idea to consider a proxy server from companies similar to fineproxy. The last thing you’d want is to get hacked! But I digress.
