The other side of telemarketing

Research on the internet shows there are any number of pages dedicated to telling you how to deal with telemarketers, tips for getting rid of telemarketers and anything else that people can gripe on about with regards to telemarketers and the world of telemarketing.

Spare a thought for the telemarketer. We don’t get up in the morning with the sole intent of being a pain in the backside to everyone we speak to. More often than not we are providing a service or product that actually benefits people and in some cases save them money. We have to deal with people being rude for the sake of it, we have to deal with the secretary making corporate decisions on behalf of CEO’s of multinational company’s “He wouldn’t be interested” etc.

Remember, the person answering the phone only has to deal with the one call the telemarketer has to deal with hundreds – everyday!
