I'm on YOUR side.

But -- good salesperson or bad salesperson -- makes no difference.

Good idea -- bad idea -- makes no difference.

The prospect's "incoming new idea FILTER" is set on "KILL!" as the default setting.

The salespeople for advertising (radio, mags, etc.) do have a DIFFICULT job -- and they do get HUNG UP ON + TOLD TO GET LOST waaay more than not.

There can be no denying that.

THAT'S what my thread was about. Lamenting that the filters are set on "KILL!" as the default. Unfortunately that is the natural hurdle ALL salespeople (good or bad), and ALL ideas (good or bad) must find ways to overcome.

And there's also the other 'natural' problem of having the right person be "IN" when you show up.
