I should not be doing this.

Our Company had a telemarketing campaign. A lot of people with resetting ARMs were called to tout the new FHA rates (New Rates = 6.0% on a 30 year fixed and below). This was reaching out to rural areas. The calls were set up by some 3rd party service, and basically said press 1 if you wanna hear more.

The ending is the best part.

This was management’s decision and not mine to run the campaign, which has produced good results, while pissing off a lot of the market. The people that are still off of the do not call list provide an interesting slice of Americana.

Edit: his response was justified.

    There are no words for that guy. Just laughter. But I’d call him back. He obviously has a need, or he wouldn’t have waited that long…or taken the time to call back. That was great!
