Cogent sales reps who actually respond

Mon Sep 16 22:59:18 UTC 2019

Please don’t praise or complain like we’re supposed to take it at a total face value. If you don’t like them so much - we are you’re audience. Explain. 

If you like Cogent - explain.
If you don’t like Cogent - explain.

Cheers,
Stephen
