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 ________.”

Hello, and welcome to Answering Machines of the Rich and Famous! (your name here) can’t come to the phone right now, because he’s spending the week in his beautiful summer home on the French Riviera…
When recording, choose a quiet area, speak clearly, and use your full name (first and last).
Messaging services including Facebook Messenger, Telegram, and WhatsApp all support voice messaging. Generally, you send a voice message through one of these apps by opening a conversation and holding down the microphone button. You then let go to send the message or swipe the screen to delete.
2. Open the dial pad. Tap the dial pad icon near the bottom of the screen to bring up your phone's dial pad.
A good voicemail should be more about the prospect than the salesperson. Especially when cold calling, you want to provide as much value as possible to incentivize your prospect to return your call.

Of course, you won't get any responses at all -- high quality or otherwise -- if you don't leave a carefully planned and thoughtful voicemail. Here are the nine elements of a perfect sales voicemail.
Practice your spiel so you can speak with authority. This lets the caller know how confident, qualified, and prepared you are. The goal is to sound like you’ve been doing this for years, not a few minutes.
And also don’t forget to write down your message just in case you get too anxious and forget to say your name at the end of the message.
This is a direct and persuasive way of asking for a follow-up meeting. Your prospect is more likely to agree to discuss their pain points further than if you were to say, "I'd love to talk more about how I can help. Let me know when we can get a call scheduled." The latter is vague and feels like more of a burden than the first request.
6. Once in the call, you will need to select option #2 to record your greeting. To access the dialpad press the dialpad button at the bottom of the screen:
I like to say my phone number very early so the person can hear it again quickly by starting the message over and does not have to listen to your entire message again to hear the number. But do repeat your telephone number at the end of the message at least once and speak very s-l-o-w-l-y so the person can write it down as they listen. If you don't get a response to your first voicemail, don't hesitate to record a similar message once a week for two or three weeks. This sounds a bit excessive, but my experience has been that if there is even the slightest chance of meeting someone now or even in the near future, this kind of message will get their attention.
Sorry, Chris and Susan aren’t here right now. Please leave your name and number after the tone. If you are calling regarding an outstanding debt, please leave your message before the tone.
Hey guess who this is? You guessed it. Guess what you have to do now? You guessed it.
