Phone etiquette is important, remember to leave your name and phone number twice when leaving a voicemail- once at the beginning and then at the end of the call. DO NOT leave a voicemail longer than a 1 or 1 ½ min. If there are large amounts of detail in the message it would be best to speak to the person directly or in person.
