WHY do Clients do this?

Today I had the mis-pleasure of having to call a client up.
He had sent me leads / for calling people at home.
The list turned out to NOT be scrubbed against the DNC Fed. List.
This exposes both of us to a hefty fine.

When this happens, we have some choices.

We can pay for or ask for a new list that IS scrubbed/safe to call.
We can stop calling homes and call businesses.

Reminiscing about Past Clients~

Today I was thinking about some past clients.

The good and the not so good!

Wanted to share from my experiences so you would have insight into what I like/dislike.

I had one client who had no idea what he wanted done via the phones....I loved detailing this out for him and showing him what would work.

I had another client who knew EXACTLY what he wanted done..and that was great...but he had so many contingent rules...like tone inflection changes all thru the script...that even a rocket scientist would have failed.

I definately love it when a potential candidate is OPEN before they hire me and let all the cats out of the bags...so I CAN have the opportunity to pass on a project that is far too left brained for a right brained telemarketer.

Thank you,
