Pushy & Weekend Sales Calls Don’t Work

No matter WHAT the boss says!

Recently I was introduced to a service that I "MIGHT"  be interested in and could possibly explore further - I gave the salesman my contact information and stressed to him that the afternoons after school are BAD timing around here and weekends are ultra busy!

What times has he chosen to call the whole TWO times he’s called thus far?  You guessed it!

Once was when I was getting the kids out the door, gathered into the car and I even told him we were just leaving and told the kids to be quiet for a few so I know he heard me!

Furthermore, I wrote down the best time to reach me on a paper - has he tried during that time?  Umm NO!

Here it is Saturday morning and my cell rings - it’s him! 

What interest I may have had in his product before has totally flown out the window.

Am I being too harsh do you think?

What is it with some salesmen?  Do they not realize there are some people who don’t give in to the pushy sales tactics and that by being pushy and not sticking to the times when a person requests they’re only setting themselves up for destruction?
