Now repeat that same message in your voicemail using your secondary language. Here, we have chosen Spanish:
You have reached (Your Name) at (Your Business). I was unable to take your call, but if you leave a brief message I’ll call you back as soon as possible.
.
The above eight rules of engagement for voicemail greetings may sound easy enough, but they’ll require some practice to get just right. Let’s look at some examples to provide some context in how to apply the rules to various types of greetings and situations.
Your clients don’t have a lot of time, and neither do you. Use the following short voicemail greetings to get to the point quickly and invite them to leave a message.
You message should convey the same courtesy to your callers as a person would who is speaking to someone in your office. Saying things like "thank you for calling" and "have a nice day", in addition to watching your tone of voice, will help you to represent your office in a compassionate and professional manner.
As in the situation above, being unable to leave a message can be really frustrating for a Placement Consultant or Hiring Manager who is trying to get in touch with you. You run the risk of not being selected for an opportunity if your consultant/potential employer is unable to leave you a message so ensure you set aside time at least twice a week to clean out your voicemail. You want to be as accessible as possible for potential employers.
Next, tell him the name of the company you work at. Something along the lines of, "John this is Mark at Pinnacle."

Hi. You have reached [Business Name]. Our offices are currently closed for the holiday season. We shall return on January 2, 2020, working office hours from 9 am to 5 pm, Monday thru Friday, closed Saturday and Sunday. Until then, please leave a short message and number, or email address, and we’ll get back to you shortly. Thank you for calling.
20. “Hey there! Thanks for calling [company]. We are unable to answer the phone right now but will get back to you right after the holidays. We hope it’s not an emergency, but if so, we’ve got you covered. Contact us at [company email/other support lines] and we’ll get back to you ASAP. Please be sure to leave your name, phone number, and a brief message to let us know the reason for your call. Thank you and have a great day.” Available even during holiday emergencies? Let your callers know via your voicemail greeting.

You can overcome this objection by addressing it directly in your sales voicemail. Something along the lines of “We can discuss this when you call me back for our 10 or so minute chat. I know how busy you are but this information is really important and I promise it won’t take a lot of your time.”
