Paul Blanchard, managing director of an eight-person PR firm based in London, says his company got rid of voice mail three years ago. Even for a client-services business, voice mail seemed unnecessary, he says.
Voicemail is what gets heard each time a call is missed, whether it be a customer, employee, supplier or potential new cleaning customer. This is a great opportunity for you to market your cleaning business without being obtrusive or too salesy. Just provide whoever is on the other end of the line with all the information they could need and they’ll appreciate you for it.

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.
Here, the pet care company leaves multiple options to fulfill the needs of the callers. They also have the option for attending to callers with immediate needs.
Your alternate greeting lets callers know that they have reached the correct mailbox and hear a brief message from you. Often, this message specifies when you will return and provides contact information for the person or people who can help callers during your absence.

Having your company name is obvious, but, a lot of people forget to include their website in the recording as well. Your website should be a strong asset to your business.

Just be sure that you sound approachable and warm.
