Hello, you have reached the law offices of X. Unfortunately, I am attending to another client right now, but I will return your call as soon as I can. Please leave me your name, reason for calling, and your number so I can connect you with the right department. This is far more professional than the other examples given in this guide.

The biggest reason voicemail has become so passed? There are just better, faster, more convenient ways to get a message to someone: like via text, iMessage, or WhatsApp. Voicemail also takes a relatively long time to access. You can quickly glance a text message, but with a voicemail you often have to log into to retrieve the message and then listen to the sender ramble for dozens of seconds about something they could have conveyed in a text message that takes two seconds to read.

It drives me mad when I get put through to someone’s voicemail system – only to hear a message telling me that the voicemail-box is full, so I should just bugger off and leave them alone. The number of messages that your voicemail system can store will vary from network to network – Virgin provides a free voicemail option that stores just 10 messages at a time, but you have to pay extra for its VoiceMail Plus service, which stores up to 30 messages.
There are two tiers of paid accounts, giving you ad-free access, the ability to “Slydial” multiple people simultaneously, and other premium features. For most people, the free version is perfectly adequate.

Most people screen their phone calls and often avoid answering unknown numbers. If you’re applying for new positions, you should try to view each unexpected call as an exciting opportunity! In the event that you simply can’t pick up the phone, you’ll want a polished voicemail greeting to let the caller know they’ve reached the right person.
After the tone, leave your name, number, and tell where you left the money. I’ll get back to you as soon as it’s safe for you to come out of hiding.
