2 Tips for Successful Voicemail Messages

Source: eGrabber Newsletters

One of the ways to let your prospects know that you are a professional and serious about what you sell is to leave a well crafted voicemail message. A polished message can mean the difference between voicemails that are deleted or ignored and those that are returned.

Here are 2 tips for successful voicemail messages:

1. Leave a compelling reason for your prospect to call you back. State one major problem your prospect faces and that you can solve it.
2. Talk slowly and clearly. Avoid 'um..', 'ah..', etc. State the purpose of your call and your phone number clearly.

By scripting your voicemail in advance you can sound your best and give yourself the best chance to hear back from prospects.
