Voicemail #2: "Jerry, I forgot to leave my name and number. This is Sarah Griffin from Acme Corp. You can reach me at 884-867-5309. Thanks."

7. A Classic Hepburn Answering Greeting for Voicemails. Katharine Hepburn’s iconic and feisty voice goes down in history and can add a bit of moxie to your voicemail greeting.
As I mentioned earlier, this won’t be the last voicemail you leave so get creative with future messages. The next day you could leave a voicemail similar to the following:
Sample Leave Phone Messages. [blockquote]I’m suffering from a bad tooth ache and will be going to the dentist to have it fixed. I therefore will not be able to come to work today. [/blockquote] [blockquote]My parents are coming home today from my native and my dad will have to be taken to the hospital for a detailed checkup.
If your voicemails and emails are exactly the same, you lessen your chances of getting a response to either. So make them different by reserving certain questions for voicemail instead of email.
Is it for someone you have not met before OR is it your friend? I think it’s easier when it’s your friend haha You can just say: Hey, man. It’s me. Call me back. Simple.
No one enjoys listening to long, drawn-out voice messages. When considering what to say, identify one main point and discard the rest.
Most importantly, have fun with it. If you don't enjoy leaving a voicemail, you might not be in the right job.
The length of your voicemail plays a big role in its efficacy. Try to keep the length of your voicemail between 15- 30 seconds. Anything more and you will be rambling, anything less, and you’re probably not checking one of the three boxes above as effectively as you need to.
The next morning you realize the mistake you’ve made and pray she hasn’t opened it yet. You search the internet and ask your peers how to delete voicemails from someone else’s voicemail box – but it’s too late.
Weren’t these messages funny and wacky for your machine. Of course, you have to be a bit careful as to what you say and record on your machine. You don’t want to offend anyone or say something that might upset your listeners. So be absolutely sure. And, if you have any more voicemail ideas, do let us know by leaving a comment below. Till then, I’d like to… beep.
1. Tap the fixed key with the envelope graphic, or dial the phone’s phone number.
You can also use a cloud service to backup everything you want to save from your phone or download an app made for saving messages, like VoicemailSaver. It costs $3.99 but it saves your messages, even if your phone is broken or stolen. For free options, try HulloMail or InstaVoice.
The trick is to stay on the line even if you’ve already recorded the message. Never make the mistake of hanging up, as you will never be able to save yourself! So what should you do?
In this post, I’ll share what makes a good voicemail greeting — and the best voicemail greeting scripts you can use.
I take it this is a first-time prospecting scenario where you’ve tried to reach them, had to leave a voicemail and now you are trying the 2nd attempt. Hopefully, you’re using a voicemail strategy that includes sending the proper email to the prospect after the first attempt.
