The golden rule of sales is to persist up to seven "no's".
AOL outlived it's usefulness years ago. It was the general store. The internet is the shopping mall. Just because the general store is glued to one of the entrances to the shopping mall, it doesn't mean it is the only way in.
In fact, it's the WORST way in.
We had a deal at work where we could get AOL for 4 bucks a month. I had broadband, but set up the account and gave it to an elderly neighbor who took some interest in the internet. When she passed away, I had to do the cancellation thing. It took about 30 minutes, but I got there more thru persistance than screaming.
Non illigitimus carborundum, LOL
