Need to Automatically Rotate Mermail Greetings

[Gary7B]

Running Mermail 12 on our Option 11C and the CEO would like our main line answered with an ever-changing, celebrity-recorded, greeting message, followed by the auto-attendant's menu of prompts. Celebrities' initial greetings must "rotate" automatically. Any way to accomplish with Mermail? How about with Call Pilot? Many thanks for your ideas.

Create many duplicate menus that do what your mail lines needs done, each with a different celebrity voice. Then using an "RA" service (aka Remote Activation), you call in weekly, tell the system the DN, it asks what Voice Service and you select one from your list.

That will prove to be the best way to rotate more than two celebrities.

I think he wants each incoming call to be answered by a different celebrity (a dozen in total). What do you think of my pointing my IDC (main no. DID) to the pilot number of a circular hunt group where each DN in the hunt group has its own greeting, is configured not to accept messages, and is programmed to revert to the DN of the main auto-attendant (i.e. MS - Voice Menu Service)?

Your CEO has been sipping to much ice tea. Just what people want when there trying to get though.

OK, so a random celeb for each call. Your idea might work. I looked up "Group Hunt" to see if it would search for members in a random fashion and I can't tell - I've never used Group Hunt. But you might be on to something with that method.

The problem with that is the group hunt number will be the original dialed digits. Not going to work unless it is answered and transfered.
