I love the one where the lady thanks the telemarketer for “contracting her consulting corporation...”
I didn’t watch yet but the first thing I do is thank them for calling and start asking a series of questions.
- Thanks for calling. Are you responding to my ad for the 200-unit apartment complex or the shopping center?
- What is your credit score?
- Are you prepared to put down 30%?
- I am going to need your Social Security number to do a credit check.
They keep interrupting and telling me that’s not why they are calling, but I keep firing away with questions and telling them the benefits of the properties -— cash flow, equity build up, etc.
Finally, there is a click on the other line.
Or, after they’ve gone ne through their entire spiel, while you interrupt numerous times with inane questions...”Ohhhhhhhh...you’re trying to SELL me something? I thought you were just another collection agency.”
