What are some voicemail greeting options for a dual-purpose phone?

[ChefRiGuy]

Hey everyone. I want some suggestions on what you all say in your phone voicemail. My phone is both for Pampered Chef and personal use, so I don't want the whole message to be related to PC. What are some good quick messages to say to let people know I am their PC consultant, the benefits maybe, but still have it generic enough to be for personal use as well...

For something very basic, you could just say "Hi, you've reached Rian, an independent consultant with the PC. Please leave your name & number..."

 

[Chefgirl2]

Mine has said basically the same thing for years

Hello, this is the Ballard residence and the home office of Elaine Ballard, (Independent) Director w/ the Pampered Chef. Please leave your name and message and we'll get back with you as soon as possible. If you want, feel free to contact Elaine on her cell phone. The number is xxx-xxxx. I look forward to talking to you! Bye-bye!

"thank you for calling the seroskie family and the home of our pampereed chef business"

I like all of these, jsut trying to use them for a cell phone, so saying home, or residence does not work...hmmm....

My cell says "Hi you have reached Michelle, your Pampered Chef consultant. I can't get to my phone right now, but please leave me a message and I will return your call as soon as possible!"

 

[Debala715]

I use what Michelle does, except I identify that they've reached my cell phone, with emphasis on the word "Your".

 

[NooraK]

My whole message on my cell phone says "You've reached NooraK, an Independent Consultant with TPC. I'm sorry I'm not able to answer your call right now, but please leave your name and the best number to reach you at, and I will return your message as soon as possible. If you need to place an order, get recipes or find product use and care information, you can also visit my website at ___. I hope you're having a wonderful day, and I'll talk to you soon!"I don't know if it's what you're looking for. I added the bit about the website after listening to Deb's "Improve your PWS results" class from conference.

 

[ChefRiGuy]

THanks Noora, I actually used that last one almost word for word! I just downloaded the Improve your PWS results to listen to.

 

[ChefMary412]

Thanks!! I think I am going to add my website to the voicemail, too... such a great idea.

 

[NooraK]

It's one of those "Duh, why didn't I think of that?" ideas.

Where can I find " Improve your PWS results"? I looked under teleclasses but didnt see it there.

thanks,
Kristi

It's not a tele-class. It's an MP3 recording of a Conference Workshop. In the Online Training Center, click on Resources, then choose "Audio" in the drop down box. Just keep scrolling until you find it.

I just have to chuckle as I read these responses. My daughter who is 19 and away at college hates calling home and hearing my message which is, "Hi, you're reached the XXX's and becky's pc business, sorry we can't take your call right now. Please leave a number, etc....." Seems like it's too long for her to listens too.. I can only imagine her reaction if I added my website and more information...

My brother would never leave messages on my cell phone voicemail. I teased him about it one day, and he said it's because my message is too long and he didn't want to wait through it. I told him to just hit 1, and it'd skip the message, and now he leaves messages

When I call my director, she has the website info on her voice mail greeting as well as a brief recruitment commercial. More times than not, if the message starts, I hang up and call back later as the message is too long!

Thank you! Don't know why I didnt think to look there too!
