call screening

Modified on Mon, 23 Feb at 4:10 PM

 It seems a lot of people are using AI call screeners now, that say something to the effect of "please say your name and why you are calling and I will check if the person is available". I ran into this a lot today. My response was something to the effect of "My name is Luke and I am calling about prospective clients for your financial business". Every time I did that, it would come back that the person was unavailable, which tells me that that is not the best answer to the AI screener. Is there a better response you use for them?

The fewer words you say, the better.  I suggest "It's Luke, calling about a new client"
