Let’s take a look at how making educated assumptions about caller intent and actions can keep your voicemails short and informative.
.
Our previous post on funny voicemail greetings got so much attention, we thought we’d continue the hilarity with even more of your favorite greetings that you can use. Here’s the latest batch: I have nothing to say to you. So leave a message. “Think fast!” *beep* Hi, you’ve reached _____.
5. Happy Holidays from GetVoIP! Sorry we couldn’t find one of the interns to answer your call, we’re all tied up trying to finish off this supply of Eggnog before the year ends. Feel free to check out our website, or even leave a message. We’ll be returning to the office after the New Year on January 2nd, and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.
It's simply called Voicemail. If not, and you can't get a VVM client for your device, then disable Basic Visual Voicemail. It's a free line feature you can disable in My Verizon or the website. After that, and a reboot, your device will receive generic voicemail notifications. 2.
Telling a quick joke or including a little more information can keep you safely within the 20-second timeframe while letting the caller understand a little more about you.
In a sense he is right, our banking system can be downright nonsensical. It’s like that one fairytale “the emperors new clothes”.
17. Howdy, right here’s [your name] at [X Business Name]. Our situation of job is at this time closed, but I’ll be aid within the situation of job at 9 a.m. day after today to come. In actuality feel free to head away a message or ship me an email at [email address], and I’ll receive aid to you as hasty as that you just can be ready to assume.
2.) Herzlich willkommen bei der Mustermann GmbH. Leider rufen Sie uns außerhalb unserer Geschäftszeiten an.

4. Save and delete messages. Voicemails will be deleted if the auto-save period is reached. The auto-save period can be from 14 to 30 days, depending on the type of voicemail.
Greetings can be changed using any telephone, or from the Personal Communications Assistant using a desktop computer; However, departmental mailboxes and those assigned to labs and general spaces must be updated using a telephone.
Feel free to add a personal touch to make your voicemail message fun and interesting. Clients will feel reassured when they know their messages have been received and you will get back to them.
Callers might reach Sales, Order Fulfillment, or Management sub-menus before finding a voicemail. The head of Sales would use their position further narrow down the intent of the caller, based on their path through the automated system. As a result, this voicemail could be appropriate:
10. Max Wait Time Reached Message. What the caller hears when they have been waiting in the queue for the maximum amount of time. Sample Scripts: “You have exceeded the waiting limit for this queue.
11. “Hello, you’ve reached [X company]. We can’t take your call right now, but please leave your name, contact information, and reason for reaching out, and one of our team members will be in touch within 24 hours.”
While this information is helpful to a handful of callers, most people find this irritating. Especially if they have to call back for some reason and sit through it a second time.
By presenting a clear, welcoming message containing relevant information about your business, you are showing callers that you value their time. If your recording is vague, confusing, or drags on, customers will lose interest and hang up the phone instead of leaving a voicemail message.
