Your greeting should let the caller know who they have reached, what your status is (out of the office, in the office but in meetings, etc), when the caller can expect to receive a call back, and instructions on what to do if the call is urgent. If you have set up a personal operator, you can direct your callers who need to speak to someone immediately, to "Press 0" to be connected to one of your assistants or colleagues. Another way to make sure that your callers are informed while you are out of the office is to use a Temporary Absence Greeting. For example, if you are going to be out of town on vacation for a week, you can record a Temporary Absence Greeting informing callers that you will be unable to return their call until you return from vacation. Write down your greetings before you start. It is easier to read from the page than to try and ad lib. Here are a few sample voice mail greetings to get you started: Normal Greeting (Without pager notification) "This is (name) of (company). I'm currently unable to take your call. Please leave your name, phone number, and a brief message, and I will contact you as soon as possible. Thanks." "Hi, this is (name). I�m sorry I cannot take your call right now. Please leave a detailed message at the tone along with your name and telephone number. I �ll return your call as soon as I return. Thank you." "This is (name) of (company). I'm currently unable to take your call. Please leave your name, phone number, and your message, and I will contact you as soon as possible. If this message is urgent, press 3 to have me paged. Thanks." Normal Greeting (With Live Connect) "This is (name) of (company). I'm currently unable to take your call. Please leave your name, phone number, and your message, and I will contact you as soon as possible. If this is urgent and you need to speak with me immediately, please press 1 to have the voice mail locate me. Thanks." "This is (name) of (company). I'm currently on my line and unable to take your call. Please leave your name, phone number, and your message, and I will contact you as soon as possible. Thanks." "Hello, you have reached the office of (name) . I�m presently on another call and am unable to speak with you personally. If you will leave your name and telephone number, I will return your call. Thank you. "This is (name) of (company). I'm currently away from my desk and unable to take your call. Please leave your name, phone number, and your message, and I will contact you as soon as I return. Thanks." "Hello, you have reached the office of (name) . I�m presently out of the office or away from my desk. If you will leave your name and telephone number I will return your call as soon as I return. Thank you. "Thanks for calling, this is (name). Today is Friday and I am working from our corporate office. Should you need to reach me immediately, please call (123) 456-7899. Otherwise, please leave me a message and I�ll return your call as soon as possible." "Hello, this is (name). I�m unable to answer your telephone call. I am out of the office from (day) to (day) and will not be checking my voice mail. If you require assistance in my absence please contact (name2) at extension (ext. #). Thank you.

Once a caller chooses a sub-mailbox number (1, 2, 3, etc.), he/she will then hear the personal greeting for that mailbox. The message the caller leaves is private for that sub-mailbox owner and can be retrieved only by that owner with his/her password. If the caller does not choose a sub-mailbox number, or presses the # key, the message will automatically be placed in the base mailbox.

When someone calls your telephone and the line is busy or no one can answer, they will hear the personalized greeting that you have recorded in your base mailbox. This greeting should provide direction to your callers so they can leave a message directly in the sub-mailbox of the person or department they are trying to reach. For example: “Hello, you have reached ACME Enterprises. We are not able to take your call at the moment. To leave a message for Jim Smith, press 1. To leave a message for Sally Jones, press 2. To leave a message for Accounts Payable, press 3. For Mr. Johnson (base), press # or wait for the tone.” Some things to remember about Multiple Mailbox: The maximum storage allowed for your mailbox is shared across all mailboxes, the base plus all Individual mailboxes. Message Waiting (interrupted dial tone and/or light) will remain on until all new messages from all mailboxes are saved or deleted. Each sub-mailbox holder can set their own notification options to their own pager and/or cell phone. Mailbox-to-mailbox messages can be sent through the system to each sub-mailbox. Address the message using 11-digits. For example, use 20755512341 for sub-mailbox 1 of mailbox 2075551234. Messages addressed to the 10-digit mailbox number will be deposited in the base mailbox. 7 If you know what key to press, you can make your selection at any time. No need to wait for the system to finish speaking the prompts or menus. Once you are familiar with the system, use the Personal Profile to change your prompt level to Quick Prompts. When in the office or on the road, save time by setting up one of the Notification Options. No need to call until you have a message to retrieve. Use the autoplay feature under Message Preferences so your new messages will start playing as soon as you log into your mailbox. If you press no keys after hearing a message, the message will automatically be saved then the next message will play. When you will have limited time/access to voice mail, use the Extended Absence Greeting option to block callers from leaving a message. After a saved message expires, the next time you log into your mailbox you must take action on that messages before you can hear new messages or make any changes to your mailbox.

Before you record a professional voicemail greeting, you may want to consider the type of people who might call your home or business. That way, you can think about the information these callers might need before you compose your greeting. Most callers are familiar with how to leave a voice message, so try to avoid giving them instructions. Some things you may want to include in your greeting might be your full name, title, name of your company, and an alternate method of reaching you. If you plan to be unavailable for some time, it can be a good idea to tell your callers when you will return and give them the name and phone number of another individual to call in the event they need immediate assistance. A private voicemail box enables a person to receive telephone messages when the phone cannot be answered.
