Calls overflow to the voicemail box if they can’t be answered during business hours. This may be during unusually busy periods or if there is no one to take the call.
Callers aren’t going to spend time sitting through a menu that doesn’t let them, at the very least, leave a voicemail. If a caller knows their party’s extension number, an option can, and should, be “Press 1 to leave a voicemail,” or something along those lines. That way, clients can feel as if they’re expressing their concerns without needing to talk to an agent, and without the agent feeling sorry they couldn’t pick up while they were working on something else.

We all know that when we’re at our busiest, regardless of what we do for a living, there’s not enough time in the day to get to everyone’s needs. Most people understand this and are accommodating, provided the voicemail they’re greeted with is informative and actionable. In 2019, where personalized experiences are of the utmost importance, it’s imperative for businesses to prioritize the customer experience and build their strategies around the customer.

19. "Hello, you've reached [your name]. I'm currently [exploring Asia, hiking through the jungle in Costa Rica, hanging out on the beach in Bermuda] — or more likely, [recovering from extreme jet lag, googling ‘Are red spiders poisonous,' or looking for SPF 150 sunscreen] and won't be back in the office until [date]. Leave your contact info and reason for calling and I'll get in touch then."
Of course, we want to know as soon as an incoming voicemail is saved, so again, it’s Twilio to the rescue. By adding a few lines of code to our Python script, Stacey and I each get an SMS notification telling us there’s a new message. Note that Twilio’s API requires a separate call for each message to be sent, which is why the similar code repeats once for Stacey’s phone number and then again for mine. If you plan to send bulk messages from Twilio, I expect that you can build a list of phone numbers and loop through them with the API call. Since we only have two contact numbers and don’t expect to add any more, I decided not to loop through a list of two elements.
We are unable to come to the phone right now. At the tone, please leave your name, number, and Master Card, Visa, or American Express account number and we’ll get back to, pending credit approval.
