A professional voicemail greeting is a recorded message that welcomes callers to your business when no one is available to pick up the call.

Below are examples of what to say in a voicemail message. Whether recording the message for a personal phone or a business line, these ideas will help. Using humor is appropriate in some situations, but humor should be avoided in situations including serious businesses where reputations could be damaged or people could become upset.
Businesses should have two main types of greetings to create an excellent call experience. The first one is what we call a “welcome greeting” – this greeting welcomes callers to your business.

Lastly, the configuration is complex (especially if you have never dealt with these systems before) and the documentation is sparse. This package came from Telco Depot, however, and despite my having worked with similar system before, I did have 2 small problems which I called the tech support number about. The technicians were extremely helpful!! My issue only took about 20 seconds to solve and on my second call, the tech connected remotely to my computer and walked me through the configuration step I was getting wrong.
