Career Distinction – Change Your Voicemail

Stay away from a boilerplate voicemail greeting. With voicemail you have a unique opportunity to tailor it to your brand. Let your greeting reflect who you are. People will know your brand just by hearing your greeting.

    Something that I always advise clients to do is to change their voicemail to reflect their brand. For example if you pride yourself in getting back to people promptly say so in your voicemail – even date it. But be careful, if you are not someone who responds quickly dating your voicemail can be a curse!

    And if your voicemail is a critical part of promoting your business refer people to other places where they can find you, such as your website.

    There is even one person I know of that hardly ever uses the phone, he is so virtually connected that he says on his voicemail that it’s unlikely he will even hear it and better to e-mail or tweet him!

    Just my toonies worth.
