Hi, you’ve reached (name)’s answering machine. He/she is not in right now, but I’m totally open for suggestions.
The bottom line is that a business’s situation is likely to change often and rapidly, each of which need a unique and applicable voicemail greeting to cover the circumstances and timeline. For example, callers shouldn’t reach a business-as-usual voicemail, and therefore expect a return call within the business day, if the subject they’re calling is out on vacation for two weeks. Such a lack of communication is a recipe to lose that caller’s trust and tarnish the brand’s reputation.

Most businesses will automatically play a recording if you try to call their office when they are closed. An after hours announcement is a professional way to notify callers of important details, rather than making them wait for the call to failover to a voicemail box or other destination.
Your customers might need you on the holidays. If you’re a business owner, you know this already. 🙂 Manage customer expectations and let them know how to get assistance.
Hi! John’s answering machine is broken. This is his refrigerator. Please speak very slowly, and I’ll stick your message to myself with one of these magnets.
It works similar to the old answering machine, with the only difference is that the old answering machine will store the voice message in the machine itself, while your phone’s voicemail system will store the voicemail in your service provider server. You can also forward the voicemail message to someone else’s mailbox.
-(Very long pause) Wait! Please don’t hang up! I want to hear what you have to say.
