Jumpervint 0 #26 July 24, 2003 When it's one of the many bank card offers, I like to go off like this: "Are you a bill collector? No? Well that's good, because I've been getting so many calls from the bill collectors lately. Say, what interest rate are you offering?" I've also used my Russian accent to feign a horrible understanding of English. vint. . . . . "Make it hard again."

fudd 0 #27 July 24, 2003 Take responsibility. Pretend that you might want to buy something, so that you can waste their time. If everybody did this, telemarkteting would be unprofitable. One person can call 100 person an hour if they just hang up. If everybody pretends to be interessed the telemarketer can only call 2 of 3. There are only 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
