Proof Clever Outbound Messages Do Work

So the other day I pick up my voicemail, as I do every morning, not expecting anything unusual.
Was I pleasantly surprised when I heard:

"I love that part about "Almost Reached..." Everet, I just...your little personal branding stuff is just so awesome and I just wanted to say I appreciate it. Very Clever!
This is Art from Central Office Systems...(rest of message)"

Art's compliment made my day then, and still does as I have it saved on my voicemail.
I've written before on the benefits of branding yourself when you are in sales:
Personnal-branding-works

Here is more proof of what I wrote my dad telling me was correct. By adding the personnel touch I made myself stick out from all the other salespeople that Art works with.
That is what you want to do.
Be remembered at the top of the list in your client's mind so when they have a need they call you right away.
Thanks for the call Art!

Thank you Everyone!
