I disagree. Someone who is already 80 to 90% sold on your company before you even talk to them is way better than trying to build brand awareness with somebody you randomly called on a list.

It's a better telemarketing tactic than cold calls but it's still telemarketing dawg.

And trust me, those leads are still only marginally better than cold calls. You just get a bunch of people who have the time to waste that don't give a **** about your product. I'd rather get hung up on.

Point taken, but there's no such thing as a sales process where you don't talk to people at least a little. If I put out an ad for something and somebody calls me, asks me a few questions about what they saw or read, then wants to buy before I even had to open my mouth, that's not really "telemarketing".

they only got paid for the "good leads" which, you know, the sales reps are going to consider exactly Zero of the sales they don't make to have been good leads

I got paid regardless of whether they actually got suckered into the scam part, I always told them upfront not to buy anything once they got to the resort

That sucks. Luckily, companies like Advertising Boost are probably gonna drive a lot of those guys out of business. I'd rather get a free vacation and just pay the resort fees and get my vouchers without all the timeshare bull****.

Because they got a grunt to qualify those leads into trash and cash :drummer:

I'm independent, barely making over 15k a year and I don't get all that

maybe it's because Texas sucks the dong

I didnt get any financial aid. I had a pel grant for like 1k a semester and i had to take loans for the rest cause the money i made working went towards bills, rent, food. Idk how they determine it but its ****ed. Sucks you cant rely on the fam id prolly have dropped out and did some sort of manual labor apprenticeship if i wasnt able to continue on with my education.

Lol dude, if you're spending that time shitposting here instead of picking up a useful skill then I don't think you have any right to complain.
