1) Communicate when a person will be back, or if they are out for an indeterminate period of time, tell me who I should be contacting instead 2) Communicate what I should expect. (For example, when I do my monthly reports, I have an out of office message that says that I’ll be slow to respond.

Leave your contact info and reason for calling and I'll get in touch then."
Create a new email signature or edit the existing one. Step 3. Add the Christmas banner from the gallery or upload your own. Step 4. Save and install your email signature. Notice that you can add a link to your Christmas banner. It may lead to a blog article or a sales offer regarding the holidays.
