Your customers might need you on the holidays. If you’re a business owner, you know this already. 🙂 Manage customer expectations and let them know how to get assistance.
Expanding on the simple approach above, let the caller know who they've reached. This will not only eliminate people leaving voicemails by mistake, but it will reassure the caller that they have called the number they intended.
Make sure you don’t use a monotone voice when you record your business voicemail greetings. Use inflection in your voice so you don’t sound like a robot.

That means we need to be as detailed as possible for our callers’ convenience. Yet, we still kept it brief and friendly.

Auto-attendants with a customized holiday greeting can be a festive way to mark the occasion. If you have a retail business, create a holiday greeting to inform customers of any limited-time sales you are offering. If your office is closed for the holiday, be sure you state this in your message.
Invite the caller to leave a detailed message. If there is certain information you need, make sure to include that information here.
This is the first contact that your caller will have with your business. The Main Greeting will play automatically, usually after 1-2 rings. You want to make sure this is short and to the point. Customers do not want to hear a lengthy message here, they just want to get to the department or person they are trying to reach. Always include an option for an operator, in case your listed extensions don’t match their needs.
