We send lots of voice messages. Over time, we have added features to this service to make it more effective. We have a free option for you to send your voice message audio file as an email attachment at the same time. The body of that email will display that person’s phone number that you have on file and ask if it’s correct. If not, the note asks for an email reply with the correct information. You might appreciate how many corrections you will receive.
Every voice message we send gives a toll-free number to call to hear the recording again. So instead of calls coming to you, their leader, they will come to Wizard Phone’s message replay line. This service is also free.
We don’t set an official limit, but two minutes or less should be your goal. Answering machines and voicemail don’t allow recordings longer than two minutes—generally, the shorter your recording, the more effective your message.
Once you sign up, we'll be in touch soon to get you going.
