Tips
for Handling Telemarketers


Three Little
Words That Work !!

(1)The three little words are: 'Hold
On, Please...' Put the phone on speaker so they can hear you working or typing.

If after a minute they don't go away I pick up the phone and say hello, followed by what, huh, no speakie English 2 good, what, hello, over and over.
The object is to get even, and drive them nuts wasting their time, which would make each telemarketing call so much more time-consuming that boiler room sale s would grind to a halt.

Then when you eventually hear the phone company's 'beep-beep-beep' tone, you know it's time to go back and
hang up your handset, which has efficiently completed its task.

These
three little words will help eliminate telephone
soliciting.



(2) Do you ever get those annoying phone calls with no one on the other end?

This is a
telemarketing technique where a machine makes phone calls and records the time
of day when a person answers the phone.


This technique is used to
determine the best time of day for a 'real' sales person to call back and get someone at home.

What you can do after answering, if you notic e there is no one there, is to immediately start hitting your # button on the phone, 6 or 7 times, as quickly as possible This confuses the machine that dialed the call and it kicks your number out of their system. Gosh, what a shame not to have your name in
their system any longer !!


The newest one is the cpu calls you with this message, dial 1 to get this great deal, I do, when they answer I go on a yelling tirade about them spamming my home. Make their job, miserable, then they will quit if enough people keep cussing them out.

Junk Mail Help:
When you get 'ads'
enclosed with your phone or utility bill, return these 'ads' with your payment.
Let the sending companies throw their own junk mail away.

When you get those 'pre-approved' letters in the mail for everything from credit cards to 2nd
mortgages and similar type junk, do not throw away the return envelope.


Most of these come with postage-paid return envelopes, right? It costs them more than the regular 41 cents postage 'IF' and when they receive them back.

It costs them nothing if you throw them away! The postage was around 50 cents before the last increase and it is according to the weight. In that case, why not get rid of some of your other junk mail and put it in these cool little, postage-paid return envelopes.

One
of Andy Rooney's (60 minutes) ideas.
Send an ad for your
local chimney cleaner to American Express. Send a pizza coupon to Citibank. If
you didn't get anything else that day, then just send them their blank
application back!
If you want to remain anonymous, just m ake sure your name isn't on anything you send them.

You can even send the envelope back empty if you want to just to keep them guessing! It still costs them 41 cents.

The banks and credit card companies are currently getting a lot
of their own junk back in the mail, but folks, we need to OVERWHELM them. Let's
let them know what it's like to get lots of junk mail, and best of all they're
paying for it...Twice!

Let's help keep our postal service busy since they are saying that e-mail is cutting into their business profits, and that's why they need to increase postage costs again. You get the idea !

If enough people follow these tips, it will work ---- I have been doing this for years, and I get very little junk mail anymore.

THIS
JUST MIGHT BE ONE E-MAIL THAT YOU WILL WANT TO FORWARD TO YOUR FRIENDS
