Hi {FirstName}, I’m probably on the treadmill right now, so let me know why you’re calling and I will get back to you when I catch my breath!

When customers are trying to reach a specific person who is unavailable, personal business voicemail greetings can be used to make that personal connection or forward their calls to employees’ remote phones and numbers.
We apologize for the inconvenience it has caused you. But unfortunately, customizing voicemail is currently unavailable. Please let me take this as your feedback regarding the changes and will pass them over, along with the related thoughts and opinions from our valued users, to our developers for review. In reply to Aljon_T's post on March 28, 2018 How dumb can you be Microsoft? This is obviously a way to get people to abandon Skype. Voice messaging is such as basic feature and you aren't going to let us customize this. I'll be looking at alternative options that allow me to customize my greeting.
A phone call to your business is often the first encounter your customers and prospects have with your company. If no one is available to take the call, having the best professional voicemail greetings possible is important to leave a great first impression and to ensure that business opportunities don’t slip by.
Make sure that you set up your voicemail. To check, dial your own phone number from your iPhone and leave yourself a message. Call your iPhone from another phone and try to leave yourself a voicemail. Go to the keypad and press and hold on the 1, or press the Call Voicemail button. This dials voicemail. Check if you have any missed messages.
“Hey, there! This is [your name]. Please leave me a message with your name, number, and the reason you’re calling. If you also tell me [insert random fact] I’ll be sure to move you to the top of my call list. Have a great day!”
1. "Hi, you've reached [your name] at [your company]. I'm unavailable right now — probably helping [type of company] get [X results, e.g. ‘double their leads in 60 days,' ‘hire the best and brightest engineers,' ‘convert 40% more customers.'] Leave your name and number, and we'll discuss how your company can see similar results."

The personalized greetings can delight the callers, and let them know why you’re unavailable and how they can contact you.
Don’t rush. It’s important to speak slowly and clearly when leaving your next voicemail greeting. Have you ever called someone and the message sounds like one big word? Don’t be that guy. Pronounce your words and take pauses between your sentences
Microsoft continues to ride roughshod over people who have been users - at not inconsiderable expense - for YEARS. Skype itself is NOT free to use (even leaving aside my paid phone number) because it wastes hours and causes anxiety and frustration, each of which has a cost. Skype was never perfect but it had some degree of honesty before it was swallowed up by Microsoft.

Update, the database doesn't appear to store the length of the audio file, so it shouldn't be a problem if the original and replacement audio are different lengths. Inserting an entry into the "v_voicemail_greetings" table should resolve the GUI "seeing" the greeting, but there is a voicemail_greeting_uuid column that is a long string of hex. I can randomly generate something, but does anyone know if it needs to be stored/registered/etc elsewhere? Sep 29, 2016 2,686 465 83 Aug 16, 2018 #5
