Very annoying person (Mr. Shultz) on the phone, pushy and unfriendly. Talks about some business proposal from the government of the US. LOL!Would not come forward until being connected to the GM. We are getting calls like this very often recently.

There are many of these "pay per view" television shows that will call private and public companies.  Ignore them.  They are scams that get you to appear during non-prime time (read: 6 am Sunday morning) for $43k or so.  For struggling companies it seems like a great thing to get their products on television, until they hit you with the price tag.  Just say "No thanks!"

Extremely unfriendly male caller. Asked to speak to the owner of the company. When I asked who was calling or what it was in regards to, he became very rude and said he could go with another company if it is such a big deal. I let him know that I was not sure we would want to work with someone with an attitude such as his.

Male caller wanted to speak with the president of the company.  I asked what it was in regard to he told me that he want to feature our company on a show 21st Cent Business.  He had a team of researches find our company and thought we would be a good fit.  So I asked how much would it cost. His response "millions in customers we lose".  I asked  "If you have a whole research team and you chose our company why don't don't you have the owners/president's name?" He said "you have very little information on your website".  Again, why don't you have the name? I think I flustered him and the call ended.  That was fun!

Called and asked for the president by first name only.

I have a call from recently as well.  Said he represent CNBC for the show 21st Century Business TV.  Does not have the name of the owner but request to speak to the CEO of the company.  Extremely rude and pushy.  Told him to talk to my marketing team but he insisted it is so important only the CEO can make the decsion.  Told him to call back and then have my office screen the calls.

We have been getting 2-3 calls from this number every day for the lest 3 weeks or so.  Very pushy and wants to speak to the CEO. Left a voice mail to me saying she represents CNBC and must respond within a day (Has been leaving messages like that for 2+ weeks).

Just got a call from this number with the same CNBC pitch.

Woman asked for President by first name. Said time sensitive and call back before end of day, yadda, yadda, yadda - definitely a scam - CNBC pitch. Blah, Blah, blah.......

My voicemail ruined the message, so searched and found the number here.

It was a TV show. I watched it, its for real, cool project.  Not really the interview type, though.

I'm the CEO of the company and just got a voice message from these guys. They are one of a number of these types of companies in Florida. Warning: they can be extremely persistent if you call back.

They say they are calling from a TV show (21st Century Business) and that their researchers found you and have screened your website. You "look to be a company that they'd like to feature on their TV show". They waste a bunch of your time "qualifying" you. Then comes the price tag.... $40+ grand!

Believe me, no legitimate TV or other media outlet will charge you to do a story on you. This is essentially a scam to make money by selling you a simple corporate video that airs at, like, 2am on a third tier TV network.

As I said, they can be very persistent, so my advice is to NOT call back.

This rude company called 2 days in a row. Pushy and rude from the start.  I dont know how they expect to get anywhere being like this from the moment you answer your phone.  Finally had to tell him we will never be interested in your offer quit calling.  He just said thats unfortunate and hung up.

Someone by the name of Alice White called and she said she was calling from 21st Century Health and wanted to speak to the VP of the company. I told her it was a call center and there was no VP so then she asked for the name of the person in charge. She became rude when I told her there was no one here so she said who do i speak to regarding the products you sell if I have an issue with it. I said when you get the product there is manual and it has a phone number and or email address and I do not have that information. She kept asking for a Supervisor and said she was interested in one of our products. So i transfered the rude Alice White. She was told NO we are not interested!  Alice Ms Rudeness!!!  she gets paid to be rude!!!

I am sorry to be identified as being rude. I am a professional and seek out companies who provide solutions in the industry or market we are interested in featuring as a topic.

I remember this call specifically because it was a costly product offered and what I found to be strange is that that there was NO supervisor, let alone VP or CEO within the company. As it is a call center, they should be able to provide some kind of information if someone has an issue. She stated that the information comes AFTER you purchase their product.

I do not know anyone who would be comfortable with purchasing a product with no info up front. I strive in being an educated consumer. I pride myself as a professional.

The facts are: I work for an outstanding organization who has an A+ rating with the BBB and we DO air weekly on the top Business networks in the US.

We have featured multi billion dollar companies who actually do their research and decide to move forward based on our outstanding reputation.

Do not take my word for it. Do your own research and allow yourself to form an opinion based on the facts. Not by any negative commentation from people who have NOT worked with us and have not had the opportunity to experience the professionalism we have maintained over the last 17 years.

LOL, Ms. White.

Very rude and aggresive caller that identifies herself by the name of Holly Edgar. Only wants the president of our orgainization. They have been calling for weeks. Everything is of an urgent nature, told her to speak with our PR team....nope that wouldnt work. I have placed their number on our do not call list.

OH HAI THAR, SHILL. :)

Called my biz 6 times within 5 minutes by an automated service, but the last time i decided to answer and told them no thanks. I already called and told them to quit calling me, the operator swears they don't have machines auto dialing, I hope they are done. Ridiculous waste of time, acting like you won something or that you were "selected" for a TV show.

Holly's been calling us too.  I've heard the pitch countless times before.  At least these shows used to be "hosted" by some former very cool A-lister, like Norman Schwarzkopf, but it seems even those guys have gotten hip to the fact that these really aren't worth the money.

There's a little value in them letting your website to the video content, it certainly adds credibility to a lesser known brand to have appeared to have been spotlighted on a TV show, but in the end the show TV placement times and networks don't begin to justify the cost.  Just ask yourself this, why would CNBC and FOxBiz be selling the airtime?  Quite simply, the number of viewers doesn't justify the cost of production for them to air content- apparently even re-runs of their content.

Dave, get your facts straight, yes formerly hosted by A-listers such as Schwartzkopf, Haig and Weinberger. All were very proud of the work that they had done on our show. They all ended their relationships with the program for various reasons. Two of them for failing health and the other, since he has been on the go for so many years, to spend some of his twilight years with his wife and family.  All have since passed away.  There really isnt a need for an A-list host if you have a quality program such as this.  Airing successfully since 1995, A rating by BBB, Nothing listed against the program on rip-off report but some of the other programs are.  I suggest if you are anyone of importance in your company, take the time to find out how your company could benefit from the exposure and collateral materials that are provided that all greatly outweigh the small cost.  To answer your question about the selling of the airtime, why would they run re-runs of their content when they could make more money selling the airtime? The program also isnt mass media consumer focused.  If you would have taken the time to watch any of the segments or have had an opportunity to understand what the program is about you would know that it is a BUSINESS TO BUSINESS SHOW.  Those that are interested in the solutions that the companies that are featured provide, they will and do tune in.  If its airing late at night, they can also set their DVR to record the segment as the program is line listed in the TV Guide channel.
