A delivery - wow I don't often get parcels arriving at my office. I’m excited to see what's in the box. But before I get a chance to open the well taped box, my mobile rings - the box will have to wait.
The caller ID says "blocked" - I often don't answer these calls but today, regrettably, I did. The person on the other end had such a strong accent I had trouble understanding who she was, and which company she represented. As she continued on with her script I figured out she represented a software company selling marketing automation. As an inbound marketing consultant, loyal to Hubspot, I have no interest in any other software that offers marketing automation. This call interrupted my work, and was a waste of time for both the person making the call and myself. And I might add, this is not the first call I've had from another company selling marketing automation software.
