Section 6: Setting up mailboxes
6 13
Using
Information Mailboxes provide messages and announcements to callers.
Information
Information Mailboxes are registered by the System Coordinator, and are either
Mailboxes
maintained by you or a
user.
Information Mailboxes can be used to:
announce sales
.
provide product lists
.
announce special events
Note: A caller is automatically disconnected after listening to an information
message. Information Mailbox Greetings can be recorded by you or by the user
assigned the Information Mailbox. Refer to the
Mini Reference Guide
for instructions about recording Information Greetings. For information about
the CCR Information Mailbox, refer to Section 8: Setting up Custom Call
Routing (CCR).
When you use the Information Mailbox feature, you must ensure the mailboxes
are accessible to callers. You can make outside callers aware of your
ny’s Information Mailboxes by using the following methods:
Advertise the Automated Attendant main number, and record a Company
Greeting informing the caller of all the Information Mailbox services. You
can also provide a list of your company’s Information Mailboxes in
brochures and yellow pages advertising.
Recording all the Information Mailboxes in the Company Greeting is only
applicable with a small number of mailboxes, for example three or four.
If you record several mailboxes, callers might forget the mailbox
, bers, and become frustrated when presented with all the other options.
Assign the operator as the transfer point for all Information Mailbox
inquiries. In this case, you would record a statement in the Company
Greeting that indicates to callers about pressing zero to reach company
information. For example:
“Good Afternoon. This is On Your Toes Dance Studio. To reach our
studio, press 46. To listen to one of our special announcements, press
reach
operator.”
When a caller presses zero, the operator provides a list of the different
Information Mailboxes, and transfers the caller accordingly.
