Question:
Should our account managers change their voice mail welcome daily?
Answer:
Yes, especially if they are often out of the office. Account managers can help clients feel connected to them by using their voice mail greeting to inform clients of their schedule for the week. Typically, it would say, “This is (name) _______ and this is the week of _________. I am sorry I missed your call. I am either on the phone or away from the office with clients until _________(day/date).” Your voice mail should also ask callers to leave a message and inform them as to how to get a hold of you if this is an emergency.
