How can you increase lead capture rate with a full time job?

I'm graduating this August and will be working a FT job.

I've heard that 50% of sellers hang up if they reach an answering machine pre-recorded response. Now I'm not aiming this question to those of you who just started taking your calls live, which I understand is the best way to get experience & learn this business, but I would like to hear from someone who worked a j.o.b. and took sellers leads using a system to eventually run an real estate investment business full time & quit their job.

I understand after your phone system you can:

a. answer calls live (not an option for me until after work)
b. use a virtual assistant to answer your calls live
c. use a live answering service, like PAT live
d. use an answering machine
e. use an internet call capture service

Whatever the system is that works the best, it has to fit in my business model to create repeatable profits. The whole point of me doing this is so I can hit my first goal of $5000 profit or more per month so I can quit my job to run my business full time. I am creating systems so I can outsource a lot of the technician work to others I'll add to my marketing and operations team. I appreciate your input.
