Enhanced Voicemail lets you listen to messages, create personal or corporate greetings and access your voicemail box from anywhere there's phone or internet access. In the Optimum Business Account Center, you can manage many advanced voicemail features, including listening to messages online, setting voicemail alerts and sending your messages to your email account. To activate your voicemail box you can simply dial *86 from your Optimum Voice line and follow the voice prompts or log in to the Optimum Business Account Center, click the "Phone" tab and select "Voicemail" from the drop-down menu. Here you will find the complete instruction guide to activate and manage your voicemail online or via telephone.
Your voicemail message should ideally answer all of the following requirements: Brief -- nothing bores callers as much (or makes them hang up as often) as long voicemail messages; Informative -- if it's your professional voicemail, say your name, business, and if necessary, department. Let your callers know when to expect a return call
.
Set up a professional voicemail greeting to ensure that those who need to contact you can leave a message to keep the discussion going. Another advantage of creating a professional voicemail greeting is that it reassures callers that they dialed the correct number, reducing the number of wasted messages and hang-ups.
When you want callers to leave a message, make sure your voicemail greeting indicates that. Be sure to keep your greeting short and direct, and include the info you want to capture.
You can ask your admin to change the greeting language for everyone in your organization. Your admin should see this topic for instructions: Change the default language for greetings and emails.
