And that's the reason that most people leave garbled and rushed messages, because they take about two seconds to adjust to the fact that they've got through to an answering service and then with Mary Mitchell's message they have maybe a second or two to compose a short and concise message... which just isn't enough time for most people.

When calling a lead that was generated from a 3rd party vendor, itâs important to let them know how you received their contact information and why youâre calling. This type of lead may have looked at dozens of homes and requested information from as many real estate agents, all in a matter of minutes. The quicker you respond to this type of a lead, the more likely youâll beat out the competition. Start off on the right foot by putting them at ease with a quick introduction and some facts:
11. Leave your phone number twice: once at the beginning of your message and again at the end. If the listener missed your number at the beginning they will not have to listen through the entire message again to get it. 12. Call again and âbaitâ the message with useful information:
2. Be Unique. Your business is creative and different, so shouldnât your voicemail be, too? Generic greetings like, âIâm away from my desk right now, but I really value your call.
I canât come to the phone right now because Iâm down in the basement printing up a fresh new batch of 20 dollar bills. If you need any money, or if you just want to check out my handi- work, please leave your name, number, and how much cash you need after the tone. If youâre from the Department of the Treasury, please ignore this message.

Iâm assuming youâve either found another solution or this has been put on the back burner for now. Either way, thatâs fine.
So with that being said, a simple message such as this may be just what youâre looking for:
If itâs too late, sneak into the personâs house, steal their phone, and destroy it. Just kidding. Think before you leave a message and youâll be fine. Good luck! All You Need to Know About Speech Recognition Technology
8. âThanks for calling [your name] at [your company]. I didnât mean to send you to voicemail but I am either on the line with another client or on the go. Leave your name, number, the reason for your call today and the best time to call you back. Iâll speak with you shortly! â Your caller probably wanted to reach you, not your voicemail. Advise your caller that youâre simply on the line with another caller and youâll be right with them.
