Announcing your name before you ask for anyone is best, "this is John, from Dreamworks" ... so as not to sound like a telemarketer or scam.

Having a list - at least a mental list - of what you need to convey is nice in business situations. Babbling randomly through what you want can lead to screw-ups.
