    Sharon, If you're a subscriber to SMALL MARKET RADIO NEWSLETTER (and I heartily recommend it), you also get access to their archives of telemarketing scripts, including a bunch for the holiday season. -Rod

    I have found some of the best sources for Holiday greeting copy are to google " Christmas greeting" or lookup hallmark cards. change them a bit and customize with your clients name.
