Almost all of us have been pained by telemarketers. You probably have realized by now that they follow a script which guide the conversation and make it one-sided, in their favor and against you.

I found a hilarious yet very successful script / algorithm to talk with tele-marketers. Now you turn the tables on them.

Not only will you gain immense satisfaction in the process but you will also gain important information about them and potentially force many of them to look for a different profession.

Telemarketers make use of a telescript - a guideline for a telephone conversation. This script creates an imbalance in the conversation between the marketer and the consumer. It is this imbalance, most of all, that makes telemarketing successful. The EGBG Counterscript attempts to redress that balance.

Here is the script by Martijn Engelbregt in pdf format.
