You can’t always get to the phone when clients, partners, investors, or colleagues call you. When this happens, a professional voicemail greeting helps you make a positive impression and tells them what to do next. There are a variety of ways to convey your message. If you’re not sure what type of message to record for your own voicemail box, here’s a definitive guide to get you started.
.
1. Tap the fixed key with the envelope graphic, or dial the phone’s phone number.
Some of us may still remember a time when voicemail was a blank canvas for pranksters and humorists. They would use voicemail greetings as a place to begin recordings as if they were answering the phone (“Hello? I can’t hear you… Just kidding! Leave a message…”) or to flash some personality with music or themed messages. Unless your business is a costume rental facility or joke and magic trick shop, it’s best to avoid this strategy. Instead, try to remember a few key points to focus on-
You can customize each greeting for each phone number within your OpenPhone account. In addition, you can change it as often as you need.
Follow these steps to record your name and greeting, and to select which greeting you want callers to hear.

If they are calling without an expectation that you always pick up (such as if you are a business coach or a one-man shop) then thanking them for calling might make the most sense.
* If you can offer an incentive to visit your site, like an instant booking or quote form for example, it can go a long way to land you new business. If you have a great voicemail AND they visit your site it’s a guarantee they’ll remember your name even if they don’t book immediately.
Also, remember your company identity and branding – you can afford to be less formal with your greeting if you are a company that is known for a more quirky, outgoing approach.
“Hi there! You’ve reached [XYZ Company]. We are unable to take your call at the moment, but we want to hear what you have to say. Please leave your full name, contact details and reason for reaching out, and one of our staff members will get in touch with you within 24 hours. Thanks!”
Record a voicemail that is as unique as your business, and add a human touch when creating the message. Encourage your caller to leave a message describing what their needs are.
