I think it’s a sad reality that most organizations use a telephone system to screen and triage phone calls before transferring the call to the appropriate person – forcing an electronic interaction that isn’t always customer friendly.
A professional voicemail greeting will give your customers a welcome that is friendly and polished. Our talented community of freelance voiceover artists will leave your callers confident that their call is important to you.

Here are some examples of voicemail greetings for your direct business line that are both personal and professional. Enjoy!
Example 1. Hi, you’ve reached [your name]. Thanks for calling. I can’t answer your call at the moment, however if you leave your name, number and message, I’ll get back to you as soon I can. There’s nothing wrong with this classic style of voicemail greeting. It’s short, sharp, and to the point.
