What does your follow-up voicemail sound like?

[Mike Schorah]

80-90% of my follow up calls seem to go to voicemail. I only have 1-2 scripted messages I use. I hate leaving 5-10 voicemails for the same person and only using the same script word-for-word. I realized that it makes for sounding like a robot is calling.

Here’s the script I use:

“Hey. This is Mike. I haven’t been able to get ahold of you. I’m assuming you’re busy or not interested. Let me know either way so I could either stop calling or stop calling so much. Let me know so I can plan accordingly please. I would appreciate it.”

What does your follow-up voicemail sound like? Does it sound different from mine?
