About this prompt
This prompt produces a cold voicemail script under 30 seconds that leads with something relevant to the prospect rather than the product, creates one specific reason to call back, and includes phone number delivery twice. It's built for SDRs, BDRs, and AEs running cold call sequences. Use it when building out the phone touches in a prospecting cadence or when you need a voicemail that pairs with a same-day email.Most cold voicemails fail because they open with the rep's name and company, which tells the prospect exactly how to delete it. This prompt flips that structure and produces a script that leads with a trigger or signal relevant to the prospect before introducing the caller. Fill in [NAME, TITLE at COMPANY] with the contact's details, [TRIGGER/SIGNAL] with the specific reason you're calling now (a hiring signal, a press mention, a product launch, a role change), [YOUR SOLUTION] with what you sell, and [THEIR LIKELY PAIN] with the problem you address for accounts like theirs. The prompt also generates a pattern-interrupt variant for when you want to break from a standard script, and a mutual-connection version if you have a reference to drop. The [TRIGGER/SIGNAL] field is the most important input — a real, specific signal produces a voicemail that sounds like you did homework rather than worked a list. Use this prompt at the start of a cadence build, not as a one-off; the voicemail should be written in tandem with the email so they reference each other without being redundant.The prompt
