First-time sales outreach response is plummeting. According to Jill Konrath, 97% of all business calls now go to voicemail.
“Hello! You've reached the voicemail of [your name], [your job title]. I'm currently either away from my desk or on the other line. Please leave your name, telephone number, and a short message after the beep, and I'll be sure to get back to you as soon as I'm available.”
.
If you don't create call answering rules, incoming callers will be sent directly to your voice mail when you’re not available.
To leave the perfect voicemail message, start by identifying yourself so the recipient knows who you are right off the bat. Then, if the person doesn't already know, mention how you got …
When you get this message, please call me back at [Your Phone Number]. That number again is [Your Phone Number] and ask for [Your Name]. I look forward to speaking with you, and I guarantee you’ll be glad you returned this call.”
To tell you the truth, I don’t like when people leave me a Voicemail message. I prefer when they text me on my phone or email me. I can see what the call is about straight away. It saves me time from logging into my Voicemail and playing the message, then waiting for it to finish. I am a bit impatient.
Avoid piecing your voicemail together on the fly — as I mentioned earlier, a good one is backed by preparation. So prepare, prepare, and prepare some more.
