Your greeting is the first thing callers hear.
Tips for a good greeting
Say your business name.
Keep it short.
Example: "Hi, you're through to Kirkstall Plumbing, Jodie speaking. How can I help?"
Holiday mode
Away for a while? Set a holiday greeting so callers know when you're back.
Out-of-hours greeting
Set a different greeting for evenings and weekends.
Prefer to chat? Tell the Assistant, for example "I'm away until Monday the 3rd."
