Does your voicemail greeting make you sound like a doofus?

'I never call myself' might be an excuse for mere mortals, but if you're in sales, you'd better know what your phone is putting out there. What if a prospect (gasp!) were to return your call?

You don’t know what your voicemail greeting says? Stop reading this blog post right now and listen to it. Are your callers hearing “I’m either in the bathtub or hung over”? Do you identify yourself with your title from three jobs ago?

Or, do you not even have a voicemail greeting?

Fix it. You’re welcome.

Even better, because things change fast: Set yourself an calendar reminder to audit your outgoing message once a month.
