Sales 101: Leaving a Voicemail

10.30.2013 by Elizabeth // Leave a Comment

Yes I rant about voicemail a bit. However, it seems to me that if you want someone’s money, or time, or whatever, that you would leave them a voicemail they can understand.
I got a voicemail today from someone “Hi Elizabeth, this is (jumbled name) from (no clue what they said company) calling again…” Yeah, I didn’t reply the first time because I DIDN’T UNDERSTAND YOU.
It seems so simple: If you leave a voicemail, start with your name and phone number. THEN repeat your name and phone number at the end, or even right after. Speak Slowly, like you’re talking to your grandma.
The other option? I delete the voicemail and don’t call you back.
