@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).
“Good morning. You’ve reached the voicemail of [your name]. Today is [date]. Please leave me a message with your name and contact information. Oh, and here’s my motivational quote of the day: [read quote].”
.
This is it. If you are not satisfied with the custom voicemail greeting, then follow the same steps and do it again.
Don’t forget to change your cell phone voicemail if you decide to use call-forwarding, and consider updating the phone number in your email signature while working remotely.
Old messages Press the Message key. . Enter your password, followed by the # key. Press 2 to change folders. Press 1 for old messages (or listen to the prompts to select another folder). Follow the prompts. To retrieve messages from another extension (on-site)
1.) Bienvenue chez John Doe. Malheureusement, il n’y a personne au bureau actuellement ou vous appelez en dehors des heures de bureau. Laissez un message ou envoyez un email sur mailto:[email protected]. Merci beaucoup pour votre appel.
2. Interactive Voice Response (IVR) Greeting. The greeting callers hear when they enter your IVR. Sample Scripts: “For English press 1. Para Español presione el número 2.”
To set up your voicemail, press *98 from your home phone or call the retrieval number you received with your welcome letter. Voice prompts will guide you through the rest of the steps.

12. Hi, this is [your name]. I’m away from my phone at the moment, but leave a message after the tone so I can get back in touch later today.
5. Be Brief. The best after hours greetings are brief, direct, and punctual. Do not waste the customer's time and give them a reason to hang up by adding in unnecessary details.
I am currently away from the office and will return on
39. Thank you for calling. I apologize for missing your call. I’m busy right now, but if you leave your name, number and message, I will return your call as soon as possible.
