Recording Your Greeting and Listings with Powerline
Now that you have your zero transfer and notification
systems established, you can start posting your listings.
You will record your Master Greeting and Property Listings
by calling your toll-free phone number assigned to you
by Arch. When you hear the initial greeting, press *
and enter your default password.
Master Greeting and Property Listings over
the Phone
The Master Greeting is the first message a caller hears
after dialing your number. Standard systems have set
greetings. With Multi-user systems, the Master Greeting
can only be recorded or changed using the Master Password.

•
Press 9 (Personal Options)
•
Press 1 (Greetings)
•
Press 1 (Regular Greeting, follow the voice instructions.)
Example Master
Greeting for Personal System: “Hello and welcome
to John Smith’s 24-Hour property and marketing
hotline. Please enter the extension number for the property
or information you wish to receive, or you may press
‘0’ to speak with me directly. Thank you
for calling.”
Example Master Greeting for Corporate System: “Thank
you for calling the Smith Group’s 24-hour listing
hotline. Please enter the extension for the property
in which you are interested at this time. If you would
like to speak with the Smith Group directly, please
press ‘0’ at any time.”
After establishing your Master Greeting, you can use
the voice-automated service to set up multiple listing
codes (extensions) that enable you to record as much
information as you like ) for each item or property
you plan to advertise. By default, listings are 3 digits
in length and must use numbers from 200 through 999.
You cannot begin a listing with a 0 or 1.
From the Main Menu:

Press 7 (Manage Your IVR Listings)
•
Press 1 (Add or Change a Listing)

Note:
If you are using a fourth digit at the end of your listing
in your advertising to track the ad source, you do not
enter this source digit when setting up or deleting
listings. The source digit appears only on your printed
ads.
