Very pushy sales person. She tried to be all friendly and manipulative, engaging in conversation about what I was doing and how my day was going, used my first name in nearly every sentence. Told her I've been getting 20-30 solicitation calls per day which makes it hard to eat or do business uninterrupted. I asked what was so important that she had to interrupt me. She launched into sales pitch about just needing 30 seconds of my time. When argued, she said that she had asked permission. Talked over me, talked louder, wouldn't shut up. Justified calling my Do Not Call # by saying that she has no DNC list, is just calling Realtors off the internet. Somehow this makes it o.k. Told me to have great day (like this makes the time theft and interruption acceptable? Too late for that. Why do people do business with companies that use these tactics? It obviously works because they wouldn't be doing it otherwise.

Received a call from this number. I was unable to answer- no voicemail was left. I returned the call and a young sounding gentleman answered. He asked if I had an extension to which I replied no voicemail was left. I asked who he was and what organization he resented to which he stated Trillium. I then inquired on what services or products they offer since no voicemail was left- he abruptly replied that he didn't know who to pass me to and then stated he couldn't help and hung up. I called back and spoke with a lady who was professional and kind. She apologized and stated that she didn't know who it was. I confirmed that they are a marketing and advertising agency.
