A sales voicemail can only get so far if its content is too passive and your delivery is unsure or mousy. Remember, people want to buy from someone who knows what they're doing. If you give them too much of a "ball is in your court; feel free to get back to me or don't" feeling, they'll have a hard time trusting your expertise and dedication.
Friends and colleagues speak to each using first names only. So do people of authority. They do not call each other and leave voicemail messages asking for Mister, Miss, or Mrs. Therefore, when you call a person you want to do business with and you leave a voicemail message, refer to them by their first name only. Don't say mister, miss, or misses. Don't say their last name. Begin your voicemail message by saying only "hi/hello" followed by the person's first name. Or, you can even forget the "hi/hello" and just say the person's first name. That is how you show confidence and authority and separate yourself from weak salespeople.
