vendor cold calling??

i seem to get a lot of calls from dj/bands/entertainmnet companies. keep in mind, my dj is booked. i've only spoken with one dj, and we booked them that night. i've been getting calls since we got engaged in nov of 2003. i tell them not to call again, and that works, but i'm wondering if anyone else is going through this. if so, what vendors call you?

I get a lot of calls from make-up ladies and Wedding planners. For some reasons, their calls always go straight to voicemail. Why does that happen? But I would never use a vendor that called me like that. I hate telemarketers!

I've gotten a ton of calls from both DJ's and bands. I don't remember which ones they were though. It started as soon as I signed up on here, how long does it take before they stop calling?

My thoughts, exactly. I don't feel comfortable with them calling me.

three DJ's have called me so far. I think they got my name from a wedding expo I went to. I just say I've already booked with another DJ and they quickly say goodbye and hang up.

UGH!!!! I feel for you. I haven't gotten the phone calls but my email account is STUFFED daily.

Edited to add:

That (email) is okay b/c they come with a link to vendor's website so I can check them out.
