As probably know, a professional voicemail greeting can make or break leaving a great impression. However, it all starts with your voicemail script.

This gives the prospect two ways to return your call, which certainly can't hurt.

As big companies fail in the customer experience department, doors open for small business owners and entrepreneurs to distinguish themselves.
Through personal experience and research, I’ve been able to identify the most effective voicemail script — along with the keys to implementing it — so you leave voicemails that generate an incredible response every time.
By default, the telephone number is the one assigned to you by your organization, but it could also be a cell phone number or email address. In that case, voice mail would be played back through your email Inbox.
Visit the prospect’s website and investigate their solutions. Use tools and technology that collect more information about the prospect, such as their social profiles, their past experience, their connections, and so on.
