For me personally if someone repeatedly keeps pushing a company or service, I will purposely not go with them. I base this with realtors, there are some in our area that put flyers out 2 - 6 times a month, I will never go with them. My friend has been posting an ad about contracting, I am not sure if it's for her or someone else. But she posted it yesterday and every so many hours she comments such as get free stimates, why go with a corporate company go with a small busines, their main goal is customer satifaction. Noone has respond, and I just want to tell her by pushing it like that, I personally would puposely go somewhere else.

I agree, if it's pushed at me I go somewhere else. Even if the company has a reputation for great customer service etc, if they keep pushing it I will back away. It really does benefit the small time companies in the long run though. I think people should tell these companies and other people that pushing a service or business at people makes them less likely to go with them if they ever need the service.

If it gets annoying I wouldn't go with them. I've never been in that situation, except for Noni Juice! I had a friend who always asked when I was going to buy some. Mind you, it was $25 a bottle! I kept telling him I don't have that kind of money. Then he started hounding me to be a distributor. I would have to buy in. I began to avoid this friend and I actually quit talking to him.

I think many think by preassure people they will buy it. The girl I work with is a key example, you try and push things on her, she will end up buying it. I on the other hand if you hound me, I will just walk out of the store, or not talk to you.

I get stuff in the mail from the same insurance company all the time. It is really annoying sometimes I will get them more than once in the same week. You are right. It kinda makes me want to go anywhere but there for my insurance needs.
