4. If you have a passcode to access your voicemail, you’ll be prompted to enter it into the dial pad now.
We’ll help you record a great voicemail greeting in English with this Voicemail Greeting sample script and video. If you are looking for work in an English speaking country or already working you need a great voicemail greeting that is professional and gives a good first impression. In the article below I’ll explore further why this is so important!

First of all, I want to say great work on using the phrasal verb “to pick up!” Native English speakers love phrasal verbs and we use them often. In this example, to pick up the phone means to answer the phone.
Do you have a landline at work? Make sure that all your phones, personal and business, have good clear, professional English voicemail greetings.
11. "Hi, you've reached [company]. Unfortunately, we're currently unavailable. But we want to talk to you — so please leave your name and number, as well as your reason for calling, and someone will call back ASAP."
5. Go to your voicemail settings. Once you are in your voicemail system, the specific options that you have – and the keys on the dial pad that you have to press to access them – will differ slightly, depending on your telecom carrier.
Make sure you visit the recording practise page where you can record your phrases and perfect them before putting them on your phone.
“Thank you for calling [company/person’s name]. We are currently unavailable, but if you leave your name, phone number, and message, we will get back to you as soon as possible.”
So long as phones can ring and eyes can see, leave a message, and I’ll get back to thee.
If you’re a small business owner, we recommend going with the RIY (record it yourself) route. First, it’s more affordable. Second (and more importantly), if your clients expect to work with you directly, they will expect to hear your voice when they place a phone call.
17. “Happy Holidays from [company name]. Our hours are a little bit different this holiday season. [List hours]. We hope it’s not an emergency, but if so, we’ve got you covered. Contact us at [company email/other support lines] and we’ll get back to you ASAP. For all other inquiries, we’ll contact you when we are back from the holiday – we might be a few pounds heavier but eager to speak with you! Happy Holidays.” Things happen during the holidays, we know. Let your callers know you are still there just in case!
Whether it’s your last encounter or a recent e-book download, have a relevant reason for calling in order to get the prospect’s attention.
If the problem is with your phone, the factory reset has a good chance of solving it. If not, contact your mobile service provider, to carry out some troubleshooting to help resolve the problem from their end.

You’ve worked hard on your application. You’ve double- and triple-checked for spelling errors and you know you are a perfect fit for this job. You’ve followed up on your application and made such a great impression that the employer decides they want to call you in for an interview. You are checking your phone, anxiously awaiting the call…but nothing seems to happen.
The next step is very important and you need to get it right. Say your phone number two times very slowly so the person has enough time to write down your number as they are listening to your message the first time.
