In general, whenever some business I have a vague professional relationship starts calling me on the phone because clearly some CRM system has prompted them into "just checking in!", it only bothers me and becomes a source of annoyance. I don't like getting calls from people who want to sell me new things or who work on commission. The likelihood of me continuing as a happy customer is inversely proportional to the number of unsolicited calls I get. Mostly all this means is these days I give out the main number to my pbx IVR menu and never my direct cellphone number.
