Small business voice mail service, as the name implies, is like a personal answering machine with no heavy investment required for set up. A voice mail service can help your company build up a distinctive professional image, as well as add credibility to your business. Small business owners may not always be able to attend every call coming to them during busy hours or after the normal office hours. To address this issue, getting a voice mail service activated in your phone is the best option. A voice mail is simply a recorded message which you can make audible to persons calling your number.

Voice mail providers enable small business owners to have lengthy and detailed messages recorded in their natural voice and put it as voice messages for customers who call you. People who are calling your phone number simply have to call the extension number provided, which directs them to your voice mail box. The caller identification feature for voice mail is the same standard feature used in regular phones. As part of customer care, giving your clients voice mail service can be immensely helpful if clients are unable to call during your office hours. Clients can leave a voice message on your voice mail box and the date and time stamp features in voice mail help you to track the date and time of arrival of the message.

Voice mail service can also be used to market a product over phone, without having to talk directly to customers. The voice mail thus serves the purpose of a marketing executive. Advanced voice mail service providers offer automated attendant facility with directory service access to call to various departments in your office, with an extension number provided.

Small business firms do have the reputation of being personalized service providers and with a voice mail service activated, they can retain that customer friendly image and leave a good and lasting impression in the minds of clients.
