Guy was talking before I said anything.
But once he repeated himself, he said he was with the National Small Business Alliance (which, don't know why he called here, we're DEFINITELY not a small business) and said, "And you're the owner of the company, correct?"

He didn't have a name of anyone he;d like to speak to, so I put him on hold to handle another line, but he hung up pretty quickly.
