Short answer

A good business greeting names your business, says you cannot answer right now, tells callers what to leave and sets a clear expectation for a reply. Keep it short. Use the writer below to make a few versions, then copy the one that sounds like you.

Type your business name to see three greetings written for you.

Make it sound like your business

Use the controls to choose what callers need and the tone you want. Read each version aloud before you put it on your phone; if it sounds stiff in your own voice, trim it.
