Are you creating a voicemail greeting for your entire company or team? These business voicemail greetings will do the trick.
Now listen carefully to the voicemail menu, looking out for the delete or re-record option. Each carrier will have a different process, so make sure you pay attention.

I love your class Annemarie! Thank you so much! Truly, as a non-native English speaker, I spent a lot of time to deal with it and took a whole lot of energy to try NOT to have conversation through phone as much as possible, however, it is so inevitable in our daily life especially at work.
