If you are considering becoming a telemarketer either as a career or a temporary job, I would like to offer you some things to consider. Most telemarketers are not really salespeople at all. They are script readers who are expected to add a human voice to the script which has been written by a high pressure artist. Then they are offered up to the marketplace as cannon fodder.Telemarketers are generally very poorly paid and virtually never trained as salespeople. But it gets worse. Telemarketers are usually not trained to deal with the rejection and personal abuse they will surely encounter while doing their jobs.
