Read MoreWhen Cold-calling and Mass Emails turn you off
As the CEO of our company I get my share of emails and calls from people who want to sell me something. I'm fine with that. Most of the time. Because I can ignore it - my junk mail filter has become pretty efficient, and I can have my phone block unwanted callers.
But, that hasn't stopped many from trying - it's their job, and they are judged (and paid) by their success.

The enthusiasm and commitment we all share towards our profession comes from the fact that the root of our industry, language, is a distinctly human faculty.
