Is Ringless Voicemail (RVM) Still a Viable Tool in 2021?

[Matt Buck]

Hi all! I am based in Maui and have been actively pursuing off-market leads via cold calling and direct mail. However, I'd like to test some other marketing methods. I don't hear much chatter nowadays about ringless voicemail (RVM). Is anyone having success with RVM or is this method outdated? I'd love some thoughts from anyone who has tried this recently! 

Thanks in advance!

I think it's the absolute worst. I don't know one person who even listens to their voicemail these days since you can preview the transcript and know it's a sales call. Also, most people know that the half-ring means you just Sly Dialed them. It's spray and pray. Might it work in bulk, sure. Is it a good or does anyone like to receive it, no.
