Is this some kind of business strategy that actually works for some businesses? Any thoughts?

I guess this is a sign of the times. It's the norm for a lot of businesses these days. Many years ago my husband and I had a little rental property in SE FL. At one time we rented it out quickly. We must have had over 30 people call looking for a place to live. I took the time to call them all back to let them know the place was no longer available. It took a lot of time and I didn't want to do this, but it was the right thing to do. I've even called doctor's offices and had nobody return calls.
