      I have done professional recording in the past and have the equipment here to do so. So hence why we do our own. I have had a few others do it in the past.

      Same here. I got one of my old jobs specifically because I had an audio engineering degree... and boy, did I use it. Recorded and edited all the phone prompts for an IVR system in 4 languages (the HR lady had a nice voice and could speak German, so she was the voice talent). In fact, I'm preparing to do a new auto attendant greeting at my current company. And of course, I'll do a fancy one for the IT department's voice mail, complete with music.

        We keep ours really simple. Someday maybe I will do separate ones but honestly we answer our phones 99% of the time so don't need voicemails etc. all setup special.

                    Yeah, either of those two guys would work. Really, I would settle for either of them on my personal voicemail greeting.

                        You could just head over to your nearest Mac and open up terminal.

                        say -v Kathy -o "audiofile.aiff" -f "textfile.rtf"

                        You can replace Kathy with any of the Mac voices (ie Alex, Bruce, Fred, Kathy, Vicki, Victoria). That outputs it to an audio file and reads from a source file.

                        say -v Kathy "This is our new holiday greeting."

                          Depends on how dirty you want her to sound...
