A Tip for Wholesalers

[Linda Weygant]

I'm painfully introverted.  Seriously, I hate phones and I hate people.  I also work in a cube farm and my co-workers are incredibly nosy.  So when I contact you by email and list out in detail what I'm looking for and what my resources are and you force me to give you my phone number before you'll talk to me - we're done.

Please - just give me what I ask for and if/when I see something on your list that I'm interested in, I will hike up my big girl pants, bolster my courage, but on my outside face and call you.  

You aren't more charming in person and there's nothing you can say on the phone or in person that you can't just say in email.

ok - so if you can justify why you need my phone number before you'll send me your list, I'm all ears.  Fire away.
