I, for one, tend to forget to set my automated out-of-office (OOO) email responder and scramble to do it before the plane takes off đ Itâs important to inform your customers and business associates (and remind your colleagues!) that youâre away, especially if theyâre expecting a prompt response.
Oh gosh. Youâve just reminded me that I was supposed to change my VM before every vacation or holiday at my old job. Something I completely forgot to do after the first year. Whoops!
I want to know how everyone who works from home is wording their OOOs. Are you saying youâre out of the office? Away from your computer? Have closed the door to your home office?
I wouldnât be offended or consider saying anything to anyone who included this in their out of office message, but even as someone who is in a religion that forbids use of electronics on most holidays, I still think this message is 1) TMI; 2) doesnât convey what it needs to convey unless you are explaining that you donât use electronics during holidays, in which case you can just include that you wonât be checking email without including the religious explanation; 3) would come across to me as inclusion of personal information I donât need, which would therefore strike an unprofessional tone,and I wouldnât understand why you felt the need to include that info. How about âIâm out of the office without access to internet or email until (date). If you need assistance before this date, please contactâŚâ Like I said, I think your colleagues are overreacting, but in general I would advise to leave all personal information out of your auto-reply â vacation, medical leave, religious observance, etc. â people do not need to know why you are out.
Sometimes people will think itâs okay to ask a quick question while youâre out of the office. Avoid the interruption by including at least one person who can answer questions in your absence.
These work voicemail greetings are for the work phone that you and only you use. Theyâre highly effective because they help you establish a relationship straight from the voicemail. Or they help you share an important update in a simple, straightforward way.
Inform your landlord that you will be closing down for the holiday â exact dates and timeAdvise your staff not to disclose to everyone your office is empty for the holidaysCancel or reschedule any possible deliveries or services (i.e. newspapers, postcards, packages, suppliers)Advise any business-related deliveries or clients about the close down datesAdvise the office cleaner of closure dates. Organise a thorough clean when office is emptySet your answer machine message with emergency contact messageSet an âout of officeâ auto-reply emailOrder supplies needed in January and ensure delivery isnât during the closure period
Is it possible to turn off the âreply âurgentââ message so they can break through the DND?

I agree, especially coming from a SVP. Itâs not just a funny OOO message then. Itâs a subtle reminder that if someone that high feels they can step back away for a few days without things falling apart without them, chances are the same could be said about you. Leading by example indeed and in a way that gets their point across to probably lots of people that may not have noticed otherwise.
I hope you enjoyed our list of best office closed for holiday message templates that will get you through the season.
6. Year in review. When preparing their marketing campaigns, most marketers focus on what theyâve got prepared for their customers. Their blow out sale, free delivery, contest, or new line of products.
This particular message is too freakin long and it makes me watch it, too. Har har, thanks for wasting my time.
Keeping It Real. I am currently out of the office on vacation. I know Iâm supposed to say that Iâll have limited access to email and wonât be able to respond until I return, but thatâs not true.
