Multiple voicemail messages

[Rodney Kuhl]

So I have a Google Voice number set up with a voicemail message something like "You have reached Kuhl Properties. If you are calling about renting one of our properties....."

However, when I had my brother test the voicemail, I had him call my Google voice # and I got that voicemail message (that's what I wanted). Then I had him call my regular cell phone #, but he got the same message (not what I wanted, in case my boss were to call me or something like that).

How do I set up my Google Voice number to have one voicemail and my cell phone to have a different one?

This is probably very simple but I haven't been able to figure it out. Thanks for any help you can provide!

On your google voice number, did you set up your google voice number's voicemail through the app, or is that the one you did on your cell phone?

You should record your google voice number through the app's website itself by going to settings-->voicemail&text . The record your voicemail.

If you want that number to only go to that voicemail and not roll over to your cell phone voicemail the only way I know of doing that is to have your google number go straight to voicemail. To do that you go to settings-->calls and choose do not disturb. That way it never rings your cell phone and goes straight to voicemail.

There may be other ways, but thats what I do.
