Your personal voicemail greeting should be brief and to the point. State your name and your availability, project a welcoming aura, and ask the caller for whatever information you need from them.

Please leave your name and phone number and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Thanks. 2. Company Wide Voicemail Greeting
Find some common ground. If you’re cold calling someone, your voicemail is your 30 second chance to make a connection and leave a good impression.

Give them a reason to call you back. In both voicemail messages, did you noticed how I mentioned new information they might be interested in? That will grab their attention more than simply introducing yourself, thanking them and asking them to give you a call if they have any questions. Come from a place of helpfulness by giving them something to look forward to and that will solve a problem.
When you leave a voicemail do not use your full name because that immediately raises a red flat that you are a salesperson making a cold call.

Saying your last name would defeat the whole purpose of demonstrating familiarity.
