A list of some common salutations are:
• Good afternoon, name,
• Good afternoon, all,
• Good afternoon, everyone,
• Good afternoon, ladies,
• Good afternoon, gentlemen,
• Good afternoon, team,
The same applies even if the sentence ends after the salutation. In this case, you can say “Good afternoon, Jim.” or “Good afternoon, everyone.”
If you include another salutation beforehand, include a comma between that salutation and “good afternoon.” For example, “Hello, good afternoon.”
Adding a comma before the salutation is considered formal
Good afternoon all,
We're getting dinner at 5 o'clock at the steakhouse.
