After yesterday I have even more respect for Chairty. It was our first day on the phones yesterday and, imagine this, I didn’t get a single sale. 
Not a one. I was on the phones from, roughly, 2pm to 8pm, and not a single nibble. Thankfully the pay isn’t commission only, but dang is it discouraging to get no sales.
I got some women who were very upset that I was calling their husbands, one of which simply refused to believe that I was calling on behalf of a company Methinks either he’s already slinking around or she’s just an overbearing woman. In which case, if the guy cheats, well I wouldn’t blame him. 
I got one call that was really funny though. I called, they answered got the person I wanted to speak to, said I was calling on behalf of Wells Fargo and BAM! I’m not interested in your home owner insurance, life insurance, personal assistant, or whatever else you’re trying to sell me. I just got home, I want to sleep, leave me the f*ck alone!
I suspect Wells Fargo solicits their customers quite often. I wouldn’t know, thankfully, as I’m not a Wells Fargo customer and I really don’t like them either.
I hope I do better today, no sales bites. Especially when a bunch of the rookies got one sale at least. One guy managed to get two even.

LOL - I feel your pain. What’s even worse is when they’re calling YOU and then decide they don’t want to buy the products. That’s really irritating because you’re just sitting there wondering why they bothered calling in the first place!
So what kind of calls do you have to make? I don’t quite get it, you’re calling for different companies to sell stuff? I’m a Wells Fargo customer and I rarely get any sales calls from them.
