4.) Welcome to Mr. John Doe. Mr. Doe is away from his desk. Please leave a message that Mr. Doe can call you back as soon as possible. Many thanks for your call.
A busy greeting should tell callers that your phone lines are currently in use. You can direct people to wait on hold or leave a message. For example, “Hello, you’ve reached [company name]. Our representatives are currently helping other customers. Please stay on the line to speak with the next available team member, or press one to leave a message and we’ll call you back.”
.
Keep callers on the phone with messages on hold. Make announcements while they’re waiting or being transferred.
Part 1: How to Record a Voicemail Message on iPhone. To record voicemail on iPhone, you have to first set up Voicemail and then record voicemail message by following these steps: 1. Tap on Phone > Voicemail; 2. Usually, you will be guided to automated voicemail system and you can simply follow voice prompt to set up Voicemail.
Hello, you have reached Dr. X. Right now, I am with a patient, so I’m unable to respond to your call immediately. If you need help with a prescription, call number Y. If you need to book/modify an appointment, call number z. Please, leave your name, and phone number and reasons for calling.
Tapping each one gives you the option to listen to the message, return the call or delete the message.
For many businesses and professionals, your voicemail greeting is going to be the first point-of-contact for your customers. This is especially true for service businesses, who often rely on their voicemail to collect information from interested parties.
One issue I have seen first hand is when an iPhone receives the voicemail notification, but not the voicemail itself. In an ideal world, the iPhone would tell you that the file isn’t available, but it doesn’t seem to do that in the world we live in.

YAY! Finally! This worked! Thanks SO much, as I’ve been dealing with this for over a year.
If even resetting your Network Settings couldn’t yield positive results, it’s time to give your carrier a call or visit them.
iPhone recorder apps only work because they utilize 3-way conference calls, either incoming or outgoing. The third "caller" is a recording line, provided by a service from the app's developer. Obviously, 3-way calling is a must-have feature of your iPhone for this to work, so be sure your carrier supports it. In the US, the big three all do, but some smaller carriers do not—at least not in a way these apps support.
Hello, you have reached the law offices of X. Unfortunately, I am attending to another client right now, but I will return your call as soon as I can. Please leave me your name, reason for calling, and your number so I can connect you with the right department. This is far more professional than the other examples given in this guide. Lawyers should always be formal, smooth, and confident. Nobody is calling to make friends. They’re calling to get the job done. That’s why your message should be all business.
Offer other contact information such as a cell phone or email address if you will check it (i.e. on vacation). DON’T: Be too informal, even if you are creating a humorous message. Give a prolonged sales pitch in your voicemail greeting message. Waste a caller’s time with an excessively long greeting before they can leave their message.
In the Phone app , Visual Voicemail (available from select carriers) shows a list of your messages. You can choose which ones to play and delete without listening to all of them. A badge on the Voicemail icon indicates the number of unheard messages.
I wish that I’d read this a few years ago. I think that we all have a few voicemails that we wish that we could keep forever, but I lost a few a couple years ago. I think that my current system stores them in a digital messaging system, like you mentioned, so they should be able to be saved. Thanks for the post!
