Man I’m digging all these posts, I just got off the phone with 1Pee… second time they have called me and all of their sales reps are so clueless. It’s like something out of the “Boiler Roomâ€.
First guy I talked to Mario told me he had only been with 1Pee for a week and today would be his last day, he had no clue what he was talking about and I had to help tell him what he was trying to sell me. Told him his pitch was bad and he had no clue.
Mario transferred me to Cory who was a little better and tried to give me some examples of all their clients. (You know the type, small business with low competition and lots of un-searched keywords) something about lock smiths. It was quite funny so I thought I would play along… couldn’t help but laugh.
Like all the others they found one of my unused crappy USL (still doing the free hosting thing just sitting there). He said “WOW you sound interested, Right?†then with a “Reco†he transferred me to Charles for the close…
Now Charles has been with 1Pee for 4 years (so he must know what he is talking about. Right?) He keeps telling me they have 18,000 satisfied clients and that I should by too. He shows me the same example of the lock smith client and says he’s “numer unoâ€. Tells me the special offer for the day is $3,000 (isn’t that the price every day) and assures me the price changes everyday and today is the best time to buy.
I say OK, I think I have a deal for you. Here is where I give him the stats on the industry and the potential for major “Bling†if 1pee signs up as my affiliate and markets my website for free. I mean let’s think about this Charles, if your as good as you say you are and we use your system of generic templates to build a 20pg keyword site that gets spidered a million times a month and is networked with your other 18,000 sites you can make way more off of me than $3,000 a year. I’m talking several thousand a month in commission, that’s like cold calling and signing up a lot of people. So would not your boss be happy? Less people to satisfy and a lot mere money, Were business men, Right?
I say, “Let me talk to your manager? I’ll ask him about this great offer†Charles says, “Well he is real busy, and I don’t think he would be interestedâ€. Not interested in several thousand in commission to 1Pee every month? Charles says, “No that they just want my $3,000 for the year and I can keep all the rest.†What business are you in? I would think the business of making money, judging from all the small businesses that you have taken advantage of. But when I offer you a lot more opportunity you don’t want a piece of the pie? Man, 1Pee has got to be the dumbest group of smart people I have ever met.
In the end I tell him I would be willing to entertain some sort of affiliate package to help them out. Frustrated from not having me pull out the CC and read him the numbers he starts to get mad. He can’t understand why I wont buy for $3,000 and I can’t under stand why the don’t want to make a boat load of money in commission by just doing what they say they can do… he tells me NO! Doesn’t want to talk to his manager and finishes with saying, “I don’t mind, even if it means burning a few bridges†I say good cause this ones been smoldering for a while and hang up the phone on him. It was so fun, and I can’t help but think of the amount of helpless small businesses I saved by taking up there time.
Anyways, you all seem like great guys and I love to hate 1Pee so I hope to hear more. Keep me posted on the progress….
Also I’m Looking for people interested in some marketing opportunities for several business ideas I have. Either as Partners or affiliates and this seems like a good place to do the fishing…. Any body interested feel free to get a hold of me.
Thanks Guys for the great laugh on 1Pee.
