Our #1 Product, The Urban Rebounder®
Everyone is probably wondering what the hell is I am talking about. Well, my new job is a customer service representative for a company specializing in distribution and fullfillment for the Direct Response Television Industry. Better known to normal people as infomercials.
Honestly, I am not thrilled to constantly be defending products that are completely practical, engineered in China for only the greatest quality. (Sarcasm) Some of the calls coming into the call center are great. Like the guy who was out there trimming his lawn with a product we sell. (It shall remain nameless, but you have seen this on TV) His wife to order extra cutters and complained that her one-armed husband should not be out doing yardwork.
We are customer service for many different companies, but nothing beats the infomercials. People are always calling up our 800 number just to tell us about the stupid products they have invented and want them to be sold on paid programming. The truth of the matter is, it really only costs about $1000 to advertise for a half hour after 2 p.m. on cable.
So next time you think that infomercials suck, remember all the people they are making rich in America. Certainly not me, but I don't mind making money for listening to people's problems with their Urban Rebounder®
