They’re a simple way to add a personal touch without manually calling each prospect.

Voicemail Drops let you add a human, personalized touch at scale, making it easier to connect and stay top-of-mind with your prospects.

🚨 Currently available for recipients in the US and Canada only.

How to Add a Voicemail Drop to a Campaign

  1. When creating a campaign, select Voicemail Drop from the Dialer step list.

  2. Review and accept the Terms of Service and Terms of Use.

  3. Choose one of the following:

    • Record a new message (make sure your browser has microphone access).

    • Upload a pre-recorded file (must meet the listed format requirements).

    • Select from saved voicemails (if you’ve already created some).

  4. Stop recording when finished, give your voicemail a name, and click Add.

  5. (Optional) Add a personal note to make it easier to identify later.

  6. Save your step, and your voicemail is ready to use in the campaign.

💡The phone number used for a Voicemail Drop will not match your purchased dialer numbers. Let prospects know the best number to call you back on.

Managing Your Voicemails

  • Go to Resources > Voicemails to see all your recordings.

  • Click + Add New Voicemail to upload or record another.

  • Use the three-dot menu to edit (rename) or delete a voicemail.

Sending a Voicemail from a Prospect Card

You can also send a voicemail directly from the Prospect Card (in either Prospects or Inbox):

  • Go to Dialer > Voicemail.

  • Pick a number (direct or enriched).

  • Record or select a voicemail just like in campaign setup.

How Voicemail Credits Work

  • Your workspace includes extra Voicemail credits each billing cycle.

  • Sending one voicemail = uses one Voicemail credit.

  • If you run out, your Basic credits will be used automatically.

  • If both Voicemail and Basic credits are empty, prospects move to Pending, and you’ll get a notification.

Setting Daily Voicemail Limits

To control sending limits:

  • Go to Settings > Account Limits.

  • Adjust the number of voicemails sent per day.

💡Rules to remember:

Maximum 70 voicemails per day from your connected Social Account.

Maximum three voicemails per number within 3 days (resets every 3 days).

Which Numbers are Supported?

Supported:

  • Most mobile numbers (best delivery and response rates).

  • Landlines with carrier-provided voicemail.

Not supported:

  • VoIP numbers (e.g., Google Voice, PBX systems).

  • Landlines without voicemail or PBX-only voicemail.

🚀Success! Voicemail Drops help you scale outreach while keeping every message personal.
