How many times haven't you heard the same boring, machine like messages telling nothing more than a few words, like you called this number and leave a message� Without a name and something sounding more human like, the people will not be too interested in leaving a message.
Start by recommending yourself. Ask politely the person calling you to leave a message and let them know that you will get in touch with them when you hear the message. But think at more special circumstances. What would you do if the call was an emergency and you should have been reached quickly?
If you want to make the right choice for a voicemail greeting, you must follow these rules.
1. After saying �Hello�, say your name loud and clear.
2. Leave the person calling you details about how you can be reached if you are not at home.
3. Specify when you can be found, between which hours and at what phone number.
4. Ask politely the person for their details, like name, phone number and the message they have for you.
5. If you want to make your message more personalized, add something funny or a little inoffensive joke, and the person calling you will know that it is not a machine they are talking to.
This is about it if you want the people trying to reach you by phone that they are dealing with a good natured and polite person.
A subtle key for a great voicemail greeting is to put some energy in it. Let people know that you can be found and they will sure leave a message for you.
Maybe sometimes, your voicemail greeting gets a little old. Nobody says that you cannot change it. It is recommendable to do that, even once a month, if you feel like it.
Your voicemail greeting is like a signature, it must be unique. In order to do that, you must not tell the same things as your neighbor, or as your coworker, or as a person in your family. Make up a voicemail greeting that can define you.
