You are living in 2020 and you do realize that your prospects can come to you anytime, which means you need to be catering to them whenever that happens, at 3 am in the morning or even at 11 pm in the night.

Cell phone voicemail greetings are generally more personal and casual than office phones. Consider a greeting like “Hello, you’ve reached [your name]’s cell phone. I can’t take your call at the moment, but if you leave a brief message, I’ll get back to you as quickly as possible.”

Therapists don't need voice mail messages that demean their patients. I just called a psychotherapist colleague and listened to her voicemail greeting with the now-ubiquitous message, “If this is an emergency, hang up and call 911.” My professional voicemail will never include such a message.
06 Avoid Having a Long-Winded Sales Pitch for a Voicemail Greeting Your voicemail greeting should be clear, concise and to-the-point. You don’t have to put your clients through a sales pitch when they are trying to just get some information. The best voicemail message shouldn’t be longer than 30 seconds.
The voicemail message can be anywhere between 10- 25 seconds. Keep it as short as you can because the prospects need to hear the vital details in it.
Different businesses may require different types of greetings. This is the ultimate list that can work for a wide array of company messages.
HI, you’ve reached (name). I’m so sorry I can’t pick up the call right now because I am standing right behind you. GOTCHA.
We look forward to serving you so please leave your contact info, details and reason for calling after the beep. We will call you right back!
Set the expectation by providing a realistic timeline for when the caller can expect a return call. Remember once the expectation has been made, make sure you follow up and return the call as promised.
