    When you maintain to a web site and it blocks the content asking you if you want to talk to a "live agent" or blocks the content with a woman talking offering to "Connect you to a live agent" do such tactics increase or decrease sales and bounces? Because I personally bounce every time I see them regardless of how bad I want or need the service. In fact when I was shopping for my newest car there are many dealers I didn't even consider because of it. Thoughts? Data?

    Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. "And they, since they Were not the one dead, turned to their affairs" -- Robert Frost "All users always want Excel" --Ennis Lynch

      I would find that offensive.  It's nice to have a link at the bottom that allows me to chat with an agent, but I don't want to be bombarded with annoying Clippy-like popups that interrupt my navigation by asking me if I want to talk to one.  Case in point: Dell's website. :| /ravi

          I doubt I'm allowed to speak to exact results of such a thing, but I'd suggest the number of positive results are an extremely round number.

              Grin and ignore it. There was one time recently that I said, "sure, why not?" and did the chat thing.
