Don't sell the sizzle sell the steak.


Omaha steaks has called again. See, the trick is to just say 'our freezer is full'. That gets them off the phone pretty fast. Sometimes you'll get a sly whip who'll say 'well, we can just delay shipment' but most of the time they say they'll call back later.

How about saying,"Take me off your listed because I hate your steaks, they taste like rubber, I prefer Allen Brother's Steaks. Don't ever call again because we are on the do not call registry." Its better than being put on the spot each time they call.

We like their steaks and have ordered from them plenty of times, magnum. Besides, Allen Brother's is a lot more expensive. If I'm gonna spend $20 on a steak I'm gonna have somebody else cook it for me.
