Introduction and Closing Greetings

You may create an Introduction and/or a Closing to the Standard Greeting your callers will hear. For example, if your Greeting consists of Testimonials, you may want to record an introduction explaining what the caller will be listening to.

You may want to also record a closing that could include information about how to contact you or how to get further information about your products or services.

You can use your Standard Greeting by itself or with an Introduction, a Closing, or both.
