We’ve all had to make phone calls we wish we didn’t have to make. While the phone rings, we pray the person doesn’t answer, so we can simply leave a voicemail message.

Examples for External Voicemail Greetings. Hello, you have reached Margaret Smith; XYZ company’s sales manager. You call is valuable for us, but I cannot answer the phone at this moment. You are requested to leave your message here after the tone. Hi, this is Margaret Smith; XYZ company’s sales manager.
I had to call Elijah this week to get some information. I tried his technique on him, cutting off my message in midword. I said, “I’m going to quote you in my column this week and I need…” He called me back in under 3 minutes laughing hysterically. This technique could revolutionize message leaving. I’ve been using it all week and it works. Be careful about how far you go on the humor with someone you don’t know.
If you leave a message, here is a collection of techniques that have gotten calls returned: First name and number only (in a very businesslike manner). It seems that calls are returned in inverse proportion to the amount of information left. Be funny Clean wit will get response. Be indirect “I was going to mail you important information, and I wanted to confirm your address.” Offer fun “I had two extra tickets to the Knights game and I thought you might be interested. (here’s the sure shot) Please call me if you can’t go so I’m able to give the tickets to someone else.” If it was positive first meeting, remind the prospect where you met. Dangle the carrot. Leave just enough information to entice. Ask a provocative or thought provoking question.

That means we need to be as detailed as possible for our callers’ convenience. Yet, we still kept it brief and friendly.
A lot of times our anxieties get the best of us and we don’t often think about the person on the other end of the voicemail and the information they need.
You can also head to Settings → Wi-Fi → and toggle it off. Now try using voicemail.

I have an old picture frame voice recorder that had a cherished voice recording on it. It was accidently deleted yesterday. Is there any way to retrieve the old recording? The recording and play button were pressed several times thinking the recording might possibly work again, but no recording was added. Is it possible to retrieve that old recording or is lost forever?

This script comes from Donato Diorio and it's quite simple and to the point. But it still does a great job of highlighting prospect benefits and the follow-up plan.
The key to making a bullet-pointed script work is to practice. You can't read it line-for-line, so it's important to work out the kinks before you place your call. Your name Reason for calling Benefit of calling you back Your contact information Promise of a follow-up email
