Cool Voicemail Greetings for Your Business

• Some businessmen underestimate the importance of
  a good voicemail greeting. However, it is a
  chance for you to make a great impression on your
  callers even when youre not available at the
  office.

3

• Each call is a potential customer. Having cool
  voicemail greetings can motivate callers to leave
  a message so you can reach them and offer your
  products/services. Here are some tips on how to
  make a perfect voicemail greeting as well as
  great examples.

4

• The beginning such as Your call is very
  important to us is so overused and annoying. Be
  creative and dont use such hackneyed phrases.
• Provide callers with information whose voicemail
  theyve reached. Include such info as the name of
  company, department, or person.

5

• Be polite and apologize that you cant answer
  right away.
• Entice your callers into leaving a message.
• Dont give too much additional information. Keep
  your voice mail message brief, concise, and
  simple.

6

• Assure your customers that you will call back
  100 and when exactly it will happen (remember
  that everyone is busy). If you need professional
  help, the best option is to use voice over
  services.

7

• Give callers all additional information how they
  can reach you/your company (website address, some
  phone numbers in case of emergency, office
  working hours, emails, etc.).
• There is a very important rule in the best
  voicemail message you should either thank your
  customer for their call or/and make an apology
  that you cant answer right now.

8

• The best length of professional voicemail message
  is 10-30 seconds. It is a high possibility that
  you can lose your potential customer if your
  voicemail greeting is too lengthy and wordy.
  Callers usually are quite busy so when they need
  to wait more than a minute to leave a message,
  they probably wont do it. They will just hang up.
