If you can’t find a quiet location to record your recording or want to ensure your greeting is as clear as possible, another option to consider is hiring a professional to record your messages. Some business phone systems, like Grasshopper and Nextiva , offer free or add-on options to hire a professional voice talent to record your message.
Why should they respond to you? How will your product or service help them? Will it make their job easier or allow them to get more done in less time? These are examples of real benefits and your sales voicemails need to contain something similarly beneficial.
