Three Little Words That Work !!

[magnolia]

Great tips! Something I have done before with telemarketing calls is this: I have an air horn I take to football games and keep it "handy" when at home. If I get one of "those" calls, before I answer the phone, I grab the air horn, grab the cordless phone, and run out side. I answer the phone and without saying anything, I wait for the person on the other end of the phone to say hello. As soon as they do, they are MINE! I give that horn a quick blast into the phone - they don't call me back! I have also used the "hold on, please" technique in the past and it does work!!!

Thanks for sharing the tips!
