    Just remembered one, how about the marketing mailers we sent out. I get calls from merchants trying to cash the pre-approved checks. "Can I cash this check for $140,000.00?" one tried cashing it at the bank and never called. He called me back angrily I can imagine the let down when he got to the bank. lmao

    With the price of postage and the competition/saturation, the ROI and cost of acquisition has to be complete dog****.

    I remember at my previous company we had the same campaign and people would call back. The most common merchant rebuttal was "wait what do you mean i have to own a business?"
