@croydon - Likewise, make sure that you sound upbeat on your voice message. I can still remember one my mother made when she was particularly tired and it sounded like she was close to tears. She didn't get around to changing it for about a year and it was pretty awful to call her up and hear that message (even though it was just an ordinary message).
46. Howdy, you’ve reached [name], [job title] at [company]. I’m at this time away from my desk or on one other name. Please toddle away a detailed message so I will return your name as rapidly as I receive aid.
What kind of company do you run? A law firm may prefer more formal business voicemail greetings than a trendy retail store, for example.
Good voicemail greeting examples. As much as we try to make ourselves as available as possible, not too many people are contactable 24 hours a day. But that's OK, we're human! With a good voicemail message that lets people know who you are and what they need to do to contact you, you can return the call as soon as you need to.
On the support option, it will check if the business is open and, if so, send the callers to a queue. If there is no answer, it will then ring mobile numbers. If the business is closed, the caller will be played an after hours message, then directed to the mobile numbers. If there is no answer, the call will be returned to a voice mailbox on the PBX.
