Telemarketing

How many of you have ever been called to be offered some specials on house alarm installation?

What did you tell them?

Do you realise that you’ve just revealed to the other guy on the phone, whoever and wherever he is, that your house is or isn’t equipped with an alarm?

Here is a tip to stop them bothering you all the time: I was being called by some major Telco every week until I told them I was eligible for their concession rate. I never heard from them again.

You are definitely thinking outside of the square Ben.

I love it, I just love it! You just tell them 'no thank you' and hang up. That ay they do not know either way.
