I used to work in outbounds sales, we used to love when we get calls like that. What it means in the call centre is that the call handler gets a break, because they are not allowed to hang up, you get put on silence, and the call handler sits yacking to their mates until the person on the other end of the phone gets fed up. I've handle calls like this that have lasted 20 minutes. Now here is the fun bit because the call handlers talk time has now increased the systems now thinks that he has been pitching, so it gives him better quality of calls instead of sending answer machines.
On the flip side of this, if you hang up the system will just ring you back every 2-4 hours. If the call handler gets loads of hang-ups then the system will direct loads of answer machine to them. Which means to handler doesn't have to keep saying the first 2 lines of the script over and over again. Working in a call centre is so mind numbingly boring that anything will pass for sport!
Qype phone me earlier.
"Hello is that Mr tells it like it is"
"It is"
"How are you today you ok"
click-down goes my receiver
It's that easy - if you are felling rumbunctious you can always let out a belch and then put down the telephone.![]()
I think you will find one man's phone monkey is another mans supplier so don't get too carried away. Try marketing this in the city of London where 90% of all UK phone deals are transacted and you'll get a few fleas in your ear.
Interesting the only thing you found in your ten years on the phone was everyone wanting you to *** off as you say...you sound a bit like the phone monkey you describe...not very good...hence the new venture.
'The days of telemarketing are over'...yes they probably are for you but some of us have made an extremely good living and will continue to do so until the phones are disconnected across the globe, and maintain successful business relationships.
I dont need your job offer as I have my own business on the right side of the fence and have done almost since time began in comparison to your unhappy 10 years.
Didnt understand the Jewish reference/JOKE ? as I am RC but feel sure it was tongue in cheek as was my original post.
You'll need to lighten up to get a business like this going...![]()

'We would like to get you to the top of Google and how this works is Google actually sells us the top spots of Google when people retire or take their website offline and then we sell them on to fortunate companies like you''
You should consider going into politics Mike - the words of wisdom you provide are full of clarity![]()
Amazing - so when I retire, my pension must inform Google so these crooks can sell my slots
Please people - If you are looking for search marketing services, please google relevant terms and if the companies can get their own sites to rank - you stand a better chance of getting the service you are after!!
Now come on guys, that's clearly a reputable, well established company who we, as business owners, should definitely give a lot of money to. I mean, if they're buying the top spots on Google from Google themselves, then it's a no-brainer really!
Gosh, some of you are so cynical.
