How to set up call greetings

Call greetings - Create a great first impression



Greetings help you set a friendly tone for an upcoming conversation, make a positive first impression, and guide your callers to the right destination. Call Greetings:


  • Greet your clients in their own language: Customize your phone call greetings based on your caller location.
  • Say "Hello" in your brand’s voice: Greetings makes it easier to communicate your brand’s voice in a way that makes them feel welcome.
  • Test your message to see which one is more engaging: Testing your greeting messages helps you improve caller experience and call abandonment rates.
  • Show professionalism: A clear greeting including your first name and the name of the business reassures callers they’ve reached the right place.
  • Sharing information: With a Call greeting, you can provide valuable information, such as operating hours, alternative contact methods, or special announcements.


Set up call greetings


Step 1. Go to Tracking > Call Flows.



Step 2. If you want to start a new call flow click on the '+ Add' button



Otherwise, just click on the call flow you want to add the greeting message.


Step 3. Click on the '+' plus button and select 'Greeting' from the call-flow action menu on the right hand side.



Step 3. Configure your greeting message. You can choose between playing a greeting you have set up in the Media Library or setup a text to speech message. For the text-to-speech functionality, also configure the language and tone of voice.



Step 4. Add a routing option, such as 'Dial', to complete the greeting setup.



For an even better experience, combine Call Greetings with Keypad Entry. This allows you to help each caller reach the right department, as shown in the example.


🎉 That's it. Whenever somebody calls you will hear the message you just set up. Always remember to assign the call flow to your tracking number(s)!
