Setting up your number

I Want to Play a Welcome Message

A welcome message greets every caller before the call connects. It is included with your number: record it yourself, use a voice actor or use text-to-speech.

You can add a welcome message to your CallFactory number at no extra cost. It is included in every plan.

A welcome message greets callers before the call connects. It can tell them your opening hours and when you are available, and it can introduce a phone menu where callers choose who they want to speak to.

You can record the message yourself, have a voice actor record it, or type your text and let the text-to-speech assistant generate the audio. Recording it yourself sounds more personal, which suits a small business whose callers know your voice. You can replace the message at any time.

Announcement messages

A welcome message is one type of announcement message. As the name says, it welcomes the caller.

Besides a welcome message, you can also use closed messages, which callers hear outside your business hours, and announcement messages for phone menus and other options.
