Smith.ai Virtual Receptionists service can answer all your calls, 24/7. We recommend 24/7 answering, as a real person on the line can help you capture and convert more leads and build trust with your existing clients.

Professional Phone Greetings, Voicemail & On-Hold Voice Overs When a customer calls your place of business, they generally expect to be placed on hold at some point. Rather than play annoying music, why not use this captive audience to promote your business with a professional voice over.

There you have it, a basic introduction into how to write the best voicemail greetings. As you have seen, they’re not as easy as you’d think, but once you get comfortable with the type of information required by each, writing and recording your own should be a piece of cake. If you’ve tried to write one yourself and still don’t ‘feel you’ve captured the right essence, then please look at one of our voicemails greeting templates. When it comes to recording it, remember to rehearse your script and speak clearly. If you don’t care for your own voice, then have someone else record it, or hire a professional voice actor. Remember, there are also free audio editing software programs like Audacity, where you can manipulate your recording until you get exactly what you want.
Our voice mail greeting can provide you a professional image, separating you from your competitors.
