Standup comic I heard once said "When a telephone solicitor calls, I
tell them that I have lost my job, my wife left me, the dog died, the
house is being foreclosed, my 13-year-old son is on drugs, my
12-year-old daughter is pregnant...... and *they* hang up on *me*....

Start into a spiel as if *you* were calling them:
"Hi, I'd like to tell you about an exciting new offer
that you've been specially selected to receive -- but,
only if you act promptly! Get out your credit card
and be ready to provide me with the card number when
I ask. OK? Here we go..."

PhoneTray lets you record anything you want such as the above message into a
..WAV file and it will play when the phone rings. You can also record different
WAV files and play them to individual incoming calls depending on the calling
number.
