If they don’t leave a message, you’ll never know who called. Some people may assume they should just call back later. But if you prefer to get back to them at your leisure, encourage them to leave a message.
The professional voicemail greetings is the cornerstone of any good business. Not every voicemail recording is relevant to every situation. This guide is going to demonstrate some of the specific custom voicemail greeting examples for doctors, dentist, real estate agent, lawyers and other professionals. A doctor’s practice typically either has a secretary or the doctor themselves to take calls. It’s vital that you have a different voicemail based on the area of the practice the patient is calling. The information differs, but the tone of voice remains the same. It should be warm yet professional because many patients will be distressed or worried about potential symptoms and conditions.

6. You have reached [your business]. All of our representatives are currently busy, but if you leave us a detailed message with your name and number we will return your call in the next two hours. Thank you for calling and have a great day.
Internal Greeting: Turn on this greeting when you want to provide information coworkers might need to know. (For example, "I will be in conference room B until noon today.") When it is on, the internal greeting overrides the standard and closed greetings, and plays only to callers within your organization when you do not answer your phone.
If for any reason you do not have access to our VoIP network, you can check your Voicemail by just dialing your DID. Once the Voicemail system answers your call, press the asterisk key (*) during the message. You will be prompted for the mailbox ID (or hear the mailbox automatically selected, depending on the server you are using) and enter the Password associated to it, once logged in to your Voicemail, press 0 (zero) for options. You can also record your greeting message from there by selecting option 1 (one). Please be aware this is considered a regular incoming call and will be charged according to your monthly DID plan.
Time Zone: The time envelope will use this time zone to provide the correct date and time of the message's reception.
“Hello, you’ve reached the confidential voicemail of Dr. Barb LoFrisco, CounselorBarb, a licensed mental health counselor, licensed marriage and family therapist and sex therapist.

Thank you for calling and I look forward to speaking with you.”
Once you thank your customers for calling, state your name and the department. Make sure to speak clearly so the caller knows they called the right place and can understand what is being said. Don’t rush through in case the caller wants to write the information down.
5 hours ago What is an Example of a Professional Voicemail? The above might sound fine, and it can work as a starting basis to create your voicemail script. But what if you want to work from an example to get a sense of how it will sound? Let’s use a sample voicemail of someone selling business widgets that save administration costs.
An answering machine is an electronic device designed to intercept incoming calls from a landline telephone and record messages from the person attempting to contact the phone's owner.
Here are some main benefits of hiring a trained voice-over professional to record your voicemail greeting:
With music and messaging that appeals to your target market, you will captivate your audience. Your Message On Hold program can be more than a time filler for callers waiting, it can be an informative, entertaining, and educational tool. With the right content, callers will not only stay on hold, but will have an emotional reaction to your message.
To begin the transcription process, you need to click on the dialogue box icon next to the message that you wish to be transcribed. The color of this icon represents the message transcription status: Blue: Ready to transcribe Yellow: Transcription in progress Red: Transcription failed, you may retry the transcription Green: Transcription Successful and Available The transcription process can take a couple of minutes, depending on the duration of the message. You need to refresh the webpage (By pressing F5 on your keyboard or the refresh button of your browser) to see the updated status of this process.
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.
18. “Thanks for calling [Company name/your name]. We hope you’re enjoying the holiday season. We aren’t available at the moment due to our holiday hours. Leave your name, number and the reason for your call and we’ll get back to you ASAP! Thanks for calling.” Everyone deserves a break. Let your callers know although you might be enjoying one too, that their needs are important.
Professional Phone Greetings, Voicemail & On-Hold Voice Overs When a customer calls your place of business, they generally expect to be placed on hold at some point. Rather than play annoying music, why not use this captive audience to promote your business with a professional voice over.
While text messages are great, we’ve seen that during a crisis, people prefer phone calls. One of the main reasons is that you can deliver longer messages. At Call-Em-All, you can send up to a 2 minute recorded message or up to 320 characters in a text message. You can get a lot more into 2 minutes than you can 320 characters.
