To leave a professional voicemail in French, it’s important to keep the message clear, concise, and polite. Here is a general structure and some useful phrases for crafting such a voicemail:

  1. Greet and identify yourself:

    • “Bonjour, ici [votre nom] de [nom de l’entreprise]” (Hello, this is [your name] from [company name]).

  2. State the reason for your call:

    • “Je vous appelle au sujet de [raison]” (I am calling regarding [reason]).

  3. Request a callback:

    • “Merci de me rappeler au [votre numéro]” (Please call me back at [your number]).

  4. Optionally, specify your availability:

    • “Vous pouvez me joindre entre [heures]” (You can reach me between [hours]).

  5. Close politely:

    • “Merci beaucoup, bonne journée” (Thank you very much, have a good day).
    • “Je vous remercie de votre aide, au revoir” (Thank you for your help, goodbye).

Example professional voicemail in French: “Bonjour, ici Marie Dupont de la société ABC. Je vous appelle au sujet de notre réunion prévue la semaine prochaine. Merci de me rappeler au 06 12 34 56 78. Je suis disponible entre 9h et 17h. Merci beaucoup, au revoir.”
