Telemarketer

I just got a phone call from a telemarketer. But it wasn’t bad. I actually really appreciated the manner in which they called. This is the way the conversation went:

ME: Hello?
(pause)
ME: Hello?
You: Is this Nathan?
ME: Yes it is.
You: This is Mediacom calling to see if you would be interested in hearing about our home phone service available.
ME: Nope.
You: Okay, thanks for your time.

Now, that is the way a call should be. It lasted about 12 seconds, literally. I didn’t mind it at all. They didn’t try to argue with me about the benefits of it, and just let my answer be the answer. In fact, i actually have a better opinion of my cable company now than i did ten minutes ago!

Have you ever had a ‘good’ telemarketer experience?
