Record and Send Voicemail Drops

Effortlessly personalize and schedule recorded messages from your Happy Grasshopper account.

Happy Grasshopper’s  Voicemail Drop feature allows you to leave perfectly-timed, personalized voicemails for your contacts — without even ringing their phone. You can record your voicemail using an existing script or create one completely from scratch.


🔁 Recording from an Existing Script

If you’d like a little inspiration or just want to quickly personalize a prewritten script, this is the easiest way to start.

Steps:

  1. Go to the Voicemail Drops tab in the left-hand menu.
  2. Browse the list of preloaded scripts.
  3. Click Preview Script to view the message content.
  4. When ready, click Start Recording.
  5. Speak naturally — like you’re leaving a real voicemail. Example:
    “Hey, this is Kaylee from Happy Grasshopper. Just wanted to wish you a happy birthday!”
  6. Click Stop Recording once done.
  7. You can:
    • Listen to your recording.
    • Click Save New Recording if you’re happy.
    • Or Start Over to try again.
  8. Name the message (e.g., “Birthday Message”) and click Update Recording Name.

Repeat for other available scripts as needed.


✏️ Recording from Scratch

Prefer to go freestyle or want a fully custom message? You can create your voicemail drop entirely from scratch.

Steps:

  1. Go to Voicemail Drops from the left-hand menu.
  2. Click Create New Voicemail Drop.
  3. Choose to either:
    • Type your own script (as a guide), or
    • Leave the script box empty and freestyle.
  4. Click Start Recording and speak your message.
    • Example:
      “Hey, it’s Kaylee from Happy Grasshopper. I wanted to check in and update you on some recent changes in the market…”
  5. Click Stop Recording and then either:
    • Click Save New Recording, or
    • Click Start Over to try again.
  6. Name your recording (e.g., “April Market Update”) and Update Recording Name.

📤 Sending or Scheduling a Voicemail Drop

Once you’ve saved your recording:

  1. Choose Recipients:
    • Type in tags (e.g., “Past Clients”) and select one or more.
  2. Set Your Callback Number:
    • It will auto-fill from your account, but you can change it.
    • This is the number recipients will see and use to call you back.
  3. Send Options:
    • Click Send to deliver it immediately, or
    • Click Schedule to choose a specific date and time.
      • Example: Send a “New Year’s Eve” message on Dec 31 at 11:00 AM.
💡 You can schedule voicemail drops  months in advance for events like holidays, seasonal check-ins, or milestone updates.
