Anti-telemarketing counterscript

Have you ever had one of those calls from a telemarketer offering you things you don't really need??

Did you know that the Direct Marketing sector regards the telephone as one of its most successful tools. Consumers experience telemarketing from a completely different point of view: more than 92% perceive commercial telephone calls as a violation of privacy.

Telemarketers make use of a telescript - a guideline for a telephone conversation. This script creates an imbalance in the conversation between the marketer and the consumer. It is this imbalance, most of all, that makes telemarketing successful.

Well here's an attempt to restore the balance between us and them!!

It certainly isn't. A friend of mine used to worked as a telemarketer for a while. He always used to tell us about his boss. He would always be listening to their conversations and bitching about losing sales!!! Not fun at all.
