Write a 20-Second Cold Voicemail With Signal Hook

Generate a 20-second voicemail script from a prospect signal, with an A/B variant and follow-up email subject line.

About this prompt

This prompt produces a ready-to-speak cold voicemail script under 40 words, anchored to a specific LinkedIn or company news signal. It is built for SDRs and BDRs making cold calls to named prospects where at least one trigger or signal is available. Use it when you have a real reason for the call and need the voicemail to sound prepared, not canned.A voicemail without a specific hook gets deleted; this prompt builds one around a real signal. Fill in PROSPECT NAME and PROSPECT TITLE for personalization, ONE SPECIFIC REASON to make the call credible, and CONTEXT FROM THEIR LINKEDIN OR COMPANY NEWS as the hook that differentiates the message. The output includes the spoken script, an estimated delivery time at normal pace, an A/B hook variation, and a follow-up email subject line to pair with the drop. This prompt is not a cold call opener — it is scoped specifically to the voicemail scenario where you are leaving a message rather than reaching someone live. SDRs running high-volume sequences should use CONTEXT FROM THEIR LINKEDIN OR COMPANY NEWS as the variable that changes per contact; everything else can remain consistent across a persona. One practical tip: read the script aloud before using it — the AI will flag whether it sounds natural, but your own read-through will catch any phrasing that does not fit your voice.
