GetMeAudioVoicemail Greetings, Hold Messages and IVR Prompts
Type the greeting, pick a clear voice, and download an MP3 or WAV your phone system can play. Change the wording later and re-download only the prompt that changed.
Check your phone system's format first
Phone systems differ in the sample rate, bit depth and file type they accept, and many expect 8 kHz telephone-quality audio. GetMeAudio exports MP3 and 24 kHz WAV, so check your provider's requirements and convert with a free audio tool if it needs something else.
Write for the ear
Keep prompts short, put the most important option first, and spell out numbers and extensions the way callers should hear them.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I upload the file to my phone system?
You download a normal MP3 or WAV. Whether your phone system accepts it depends on the system, so check its file requirements.
How much does a phone greeting cost?
Downloads are billed per minute of audio from prepaid AudioMinutes, with no subscription: $0.15 per minute for Standard voices and $0.25 per minute for Natural voices. A 1-minute script is about $0.15 with a Standard voice or $0.25 with a Natural voice. Drafts and previews are not billed, and re-downloading the same unchanged audio is not billed again.
