HOMEOWNER–it is NOT RUDE to HANG UP on a SOLICITOR!

Note: If you make a mistake and ask them to come out to your home, it is in your best interest to call back and cancel the call. And if they still show up and harass you–PLEASE CALL THE POLICE.

Typical solicitation pitches:

“We just happen to be in your area.”

“We have taken over your existing company’s customers.”

“Your existing company is out of business.”

“We just had an opening so we can give you a fantastic special.”
