# Insurance agent voicemail script: eight under 20 seconds.

An insurance agent voicemail script should run under 20 seconds, say your name twice, give one reason for the call and promise a text. Long voicemails get deleted at the first breath. Here are eight short ones for new leads, quotes, old leads and renewals.

- Under 20 seconds

- One reason to call back

- Follow with a text

## The short answer.

Nobody calls back a voicemail they did not finish. Say who you are, why you called in one line, and that you will text. Then send the text right away. The text is what gets answered. The voicemail is what makes the text feel safe.

## New leads.

- **Quote request** "Hi Tanya, this is Alex with Summit Insurance, calling about the auto quote you just asked for. I will text you from this number. Again, Alex with Summit Insurance."

- **Second try** "Hi Tanya, Alex with Summit Insurance again. I have what I need to finish your quote except one question. I will text it to you."

## After a quote.

- **Quote sent** "Hi Tanya, Alex with Summit Insurance. Your quote is in your email. I will text you to make sure it arrived."

- **Checking in** "Hi Tanya, it is Alex. Just checking whether you had questions on the quote. Text or call me back at this number, whichever is easier."

## Old leads and current clients.

- **Old lead** "Hi Tanya, this is Alex with Summit Insurance. You asked about coverage a while back and I never closed the loop. If you are still looking, call or text me here. If not, no worries."

- **Renewal** "Hi Tanya, Alex with Summit Insurance. Your policy renews next month and I would like to look it over for you. I will text you a couple of times that work."

- **Thank you** "Hi Tanya, Alex here. No need to call back. I just wanted to say thank you for your business this year."

## Your own greeting.

- **What callers hear** "You have reached Alex with Summit Insurance. I am with a client. Leave your name and I will call you back today, or text this number and I will answer faster."

## Where I would be careful.

Do not leave health, income or policy details on a voicemail. Someone else may hear it. A live voicemail you leave yourself is the simple case. Prerecorded and ringless voicemails are treated like robocalls and need the right consent. This is general information, not legal advice, so check with your compliance contact before you send anything.

A missed call that gets no voicemail at all should still get a text. See [what to text when you miss a call](https://launchautomation.ai/guides/what-to-text-when-you-miss-a-call).

## Questions you may be asking.

### What should an insurance agent say on a voicemail?

Your name and agency, one line about why you called, and that you will text from the same number. Say your name again at the end.

### How long should a voicemail to a lead be?

Under 20 seconds. Shorter voicemails get heard to the end.

### Should I leave a voicemail every time I call?

Not every time. Leave one on the first try and again every few attempts, and send a text after each.

### Are ringless voicemails legal for insurance agents?

They are treated like prerecorded calls, so they need the right consent. Check with your compliance contact before using them.

### What should my own voicemail greeting say?

Your name, that you will call back the same day, and that texting the number gets a faster answer.
