You don't necessarily need to say “Goodbye” at the end of a voice mail, because you didn't really talk to anyone. Instead, try something like, “Look forward to talking* with you!” How do I make a personal voicemail greeting? Start with a polite “Hello”. Inform the caller of who you are, and apologize for missing the call. End your script by asking the caller to leave a name and contact number with a brief message. Inform the caller that you will get back to them as soon as possible.
