They are very funny and so clever. This one is another classic that I find funnier after having some cold calling experience. Colin Valenti from Master Travel Incorporated plays the telemarketer in this scene. He cold calls Gavin who is very nice at first but was just explaining he doesn\u2019t have the time right now to talk about the travel package. Almost immediately, Colin hangs up on Gavin which confuses him. Gavin gives him a call back and asks why he hung up and what happened and once Colin finds out he\u2019s still not interested, he hangs up again. Gavin is beginning to get very angry with Colin and keeps calling back. He gets more angry and more emotional with each call and Colin keeps his cool. Gavin finally tells him that he wants the Vegas package travel deal and Colin says \u201cSure you do\u201d and hangs up. He\u2019s playing hard to get and this is pulling on Gavin\u2019s emotions. Gavin calls back and buys not just the Vegas package, he buys 5 of them! He is so blinded by the treatment that he doesn\u2019t care about the product anymore. At the end, we see two telemarketers from Travel Master Incorporated talking about how great the new script is.<\/p>\n<p>This is absolutely not the way to treat customers and not the way to cold call. I felt this relates to class because it is a good sales clip and it is too funny not to share with you all. I hope you enjoyed it and learned a little bit about how not to act in terms of the telemarketer and also the one receiving the telemarketing calls.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCdN4aXTrHAtfgbVG9HjBmxQ Growing up, I loved watching Key and Peele\u2019s YouTube skits.
