Hi Glenn...

Funny you should mention telemarketing. I use it a lot (b2b). Very effective.

Telemarketing always reminds me of the famous Yogi Berra quote: "No one goes to that restaurant any more -- it's too crowded."

Telemarketing is a multi-billion dollar marketing method -- even though "everyone" hates it, and "nobody" buys that way.

Kind of like the National Enquirer tabloid at the supermarket checkout that "nobody" buys.

Cheers.
