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.”
.
Therefore, as a rule of thumb, it has been advised that business professionals should return calls within 24 hours. If for any reason a prompt callback is not possible, for instance, if it is known that the call may be lengthy and the individual does not have time to talk until another day or so, they should still leave a brief voicemail message to acknowledge receipt of the call and advise when they anticipate being able to have the discussion. Additionally, voicemail messages should be checked at least once a day, if not more.
The thing with voicemail is it can be really handy when it comes to catering to your prospects when you are not available after work hours.
Let callers know that your business is closed but their call is still important. With after hours business voicemail greetings, you can give them emergency options or a commitment to call them back by allowing callers to leave a voicemail for an employee or department.
