Re: Lets Clear This Issue Up Once and For All

Yes, he was swept out of office and it left a power vacuum.

Good Point! I heard that out of all European locations the Japanese pinpointed the UK as being the most cost effective due to the productivity of our workers. So thats nice to know.

hehe your not the only Wit Raygun.

Georgy!!!! There is really nooo need to be so negative about telemarketers....

Have you any idea how much "CONFIDENCE" it takes to COLD CALL someone.......

I have to be confident, otherwise I would not have the nerve to call up someone I don't know....especially if they are rude.

Even today I had one man, who was so rude he virtually slammed the phone down before I had even gotten my sentence out!!!

Rude rude rudeness is never necessary in any situation....

I am not saying your rude, in fact you might be quite polite on the phone...

That man who I cold called today, could have been saved quite a bit of money from the particular product I was selling today!!!

Mega cheap price for my product but MEGA BIG SAVINGS TO HIS BUSINESS!!!!!

He slammed the phone down on his profit....

He slammed the phone down on massive savings..

He slammed the phone down on opportunity

and he closed his door of luck when he slammed the phone down on me..

I am the best and biggest deal maker there is on the phone...I ONLY sell great deals that really help people..

Otherwise GEORGE how could I be so ENTHUSIASTIC and have such UNSHAKABLE FAITH in my various products!

I am not the average kind of telemarketer...I am the king of deal makers.....

So if you get a telephone call from me....don't close down your window of opportunity George......otherwise you may just be slamming the door to more profits.

Don't tell us johnathon there is nothing you need? Or there has never been a time when you have been "educated" by a quality sales person?

Then learn from it and better your ways.

Your sense of logic beggars belief.

Anyway, it's been mildly amusing having you around for a bit of light relief while not much else is going on, this being the holiday season, but enough is enough, and it's high time we sent you to Coventry. Have a nice trip and don't hurry back.

Why ever not? More likely to be O-level Maths I would have thought, but just because someone has an occupation why should they not have knowledge of anything else? I may be an estate agent and do non-reg life and mortgages, but that doesn't stop me having a physics degree!

I don't need to better my ways thankyou very much..I have made my point sufficiently with regard to selling..and marketing..and thats it.

Ha, you mock if you like, the fact is, I have made my point about marketing, and you know the points I make and you know they are valid...

The banter aside, they are simple but relevant points all focusing on the importance of marketing in the world economy, and thats really the main point of what I have been saying. Whilst it is very important I am not saying it is the only thing that matters.

In fact almost two thirds of graduates enter something that is non related to their degree, so your spot on their old bean!

What is or isn't rude is a matter of opinion. Perhaps he though you were rude and lacking respect by calling him, unsolicited. Telephones are rude instruments, they take no account of whether it's convenient for the recipient to talk, and interrupt what their doing, showing a lack of respect. If you had used written communication, which outlined the details in full, allowing him to assess your proposal with the minimum of effort, this would have shown more respect.

I agree with what you say 100%. I also agree that the nature of the beast, ie the telephone is rude....or someone might have been having a bad day...

However, there are also a certain number of the population who are just "rude natured" "aggressive natured" "unpleasant natured"...they enjoy any chance they can to be horrible, mean or nasty, as anybody who has a job where they interact with members of the public..or provide any service will say.

If you had used written communication, which outlined the details in full, allowing him to

The only answer is I have to develop the anatomy of a rhinocerous....in as far as having "thick skin"......so i don't take it personally the abuse and insults..hurled..and phones slammed....

You're a saint, really you are.

Ahhh but please note, I said "I have to" meaning in the future tense..

To be frank, really I don't like it at all...

Its quite nerve racking, I mean let me be candid, even the best salesmen really shy away from the telephone cold call..it is easy for anybody to just slam the phone down and be rude, or give out strong rejection vibes.

I'm not at all a saint, I just have the same feelings as everybody else..and hate rudeness, but it comes with the job!

I need to secure a good cash basis for my businesses, and there is a big demand for this unpopular and unpleasant work.

You may see how even these good folk regard me as a "telemarkting pariah"........!! So you can imagine how any of them would react if I phoned them up trying to flogg em something?

In truth, it is soul destroying sometimes..if people are negative..

Although yesterday I had a lovely chat with some nice guy who spends half his time in Australia, he was telling me about his life and everything, even though I did'nt sell him my product, I enjoyed giving my time to him to listen about his nice life!

Ronald points his Raygun at Stephen and commands!!::

"ENOUGH IS ENOUGH" enough is enough, and it's high time we sent you to

Ohh ronald, thanks for the tip, what is so good about coventry, are there any grants for small manufacturing businesses , or is it a great place to consider "buy to lets"?

Funily enough I can't say I can remember going to coventry, although I must have been there in the past, to visit clients..

I'll send you a postcard!

Byeeeee

They obviously need a marketing department as their message has failed to get across.

Plenty!

Daewoo still make and sell cars - under the "GM Daewoo" badge now.

I didn't know they were made in Europe. Are you sure?

The Matiz I had certainly wasn't. It was manufactured in Korea (I think) and shipped into the country at Avonmouth (I think) where Daewoo have, or had anyway, a reception.
