Who hears that every day? You’re bound to be the subject of your customers’ conversations because you’ve further branded yourself and your company. Who knows, you may generate more call-ins from prospects with this approachable greeting as customers share your voicemail with their coworkers.

Humor also leaves a lot of room for misinterpretation—which subsequently weakens sincerity and authority. A caller can be very turned off by merely misinterpreting your joke. Why take this risk? Additionally, this could even cause callers to question your character. Say, for example, the president of a company’s mobile phone voicemail greeting was funny. What’s to happen if the caller didn’t like or get the joke? What if they found it offensive? Another scenario is that a caller is reaching out to you for the first time—i.e. they have no idea regarding your personality. What next? The point is, with this type of greeting, humor is bound to be more divisive so just avoid it altogether. c. Poorly Pacing Your Message and Bad Time Management: Don’t speed through your message. Speak clearly so callers know what to include in their message and when to leave the message. At the same time, don’t drag your message out. No one wants to sit through a diatribe. Just get to the point clearly.
Sound upbeat in your message. When recording, be sure to say your message with a smile on your face. It’s obvious when people aren’t happy in their message. Since your work revolves around keeping happy customers, do your part by keeping a happy-sounding voicemail message.

Mailbox greetings play when a caller reaches a user's mailbox. There are two greetings: one that plays when the user's phone is busy and the other when they don't answer or when they have their phone in Call Forwarded Always to voice mail. The default no-answer greeting plays a message recorded by the user. A typical user-recorded greeting would identify the user and inform callers that they are unable to answer their call� example: "Hello. You have reached John Doe. I am in today but missed your call. If you would like, please leave your name, telephone number and message at the sound of the tone and I will return your call as soon as possible. Thank you."

As a small business, you lead a busy life. There is little room to respond to any voicemail the company collects from conducting surveys, website assessments, and meeting targets regularly to calling vendors, tumbling customers, and selling the commodity. Save time and energy on the stressful workday by actually reading transcribed messages instead of listening to a series of voice messages. When reading back messages are over, you can determine easily if an answer is appropriate for the customers. Offer your team and you a break to "read" your client voicemails. With professional voicemail transcription services, you can read transcribed messages of your voicemails in the inbox of your client issues, whenever you have time.

Since I pride myself in being responsible, if I don’t receive a return call I have to assume I wrote down wrong number. If I were irresponsible I would just blow it off and not care.
