In Provide the caller with these options, select an option. Some options will prompt you for additional information, such as an alternate phone number or text to be read to the caller.
Alternatively, you could try disabling call forwarding, though your particular carrier or phone model may not allow it:

If you’d like to learn more, my number is 123-456-7890. I’ll also follow up with an email containing the case study. I look forward to hearing what you think. Have a great day.” This voicemail is simple, packed with value, and straightforward. It also sets the tone for what doing business with you is like.
If I’m not available, just leave me a voice mail. Again, either way, it will be good to know what’s going on. Thanks in advance for that, and I’ll look for your call. You can reach me at (your number). That number again is area code (your number). Thanks ________.”

9. "Hey, this is [your name]. Thanks for reaching out. I'm busy at the moment, but if you leave your name, number, and message, I'll return your call.”
Avoid telling your prospect what to do. You'll make returning your call seem like a chore or, worse, a demand. This should feel like a mutually beneficial relationship -- one in which each party wants to call the other back -- unprompted.
Some of the solutions to this error include setting up voicemail and resetting the network settings.
I've stressed it throughout this article, and I'll stress it again — your sales voicemails have to be concise and airtight. That requires being locked in on exactly what you're trying to get across. You can't go off on a series of tangents that may or may not apply to your prospect's situation. Keep your messaging as focused as possible.
Because you never know the quality of someone’s phone audio or your cell phone service, it's not a bad idea to give your name and phone number twice within your message. The thought being, if the person you called can’t understand who you are or how to call you back, how can they be expected to return your call?
