When it comes to clients and potential customers looking for you through our phone system's auto-attendant, your name says it all. If your name is not recorded into your voicemail account, finding and connecting with you can be difficult and time-consuming for callers.

We encourage all agents who have not recorded their name, to take a moment to do so.

To record your name into your voicemail account, just follow these simple steps:
voicemail_button.jpg Press the voicemail button on your Cisco phone in the office.
phone_button_0.jpg When you hear the prompt voice, press zero "0" to access mailbox options.
phone_button_3.jpg Finally, press three "3" to record your name and follow the instructions given by the voice prompt to verify the recording.
