Sales wants to sell you something. This guy wants to get in contact with people for its own sake.

One could imagine a salesperson just thinking about a potential customer and then calling them immediately. No CMS involved. Just like how you could randomly think of a friend and call them. The respective motivations are still the same.

The “just do it” distinction is meaningless w.r.t. intent. You’re just being uncharitable.
