IMPORTANT ALERT: DNC
NUISANCE LAWSUIT SCHEME
Click for More Info
Hey, I'm a Realtor®
Not a Telemarketer!
You've heard the buzz about the new Federal Do-Not-Call rules
and maybe even feel relieved that the government is finally doing
something about the abuses of telemarketing firms that call
every night at dinner time.
The bad news, however, is that those same rules also apply to the
everyday business activities in the typical real estate office. Your
agents' routine calls to FSBO's and expireds, past clients, and even
responses to new inquiries can all trigger violations under the complex
rules. And the penalty for even one violation is $11,000
per call!
The good news is that the government provides "safe harbor" protection for
brokers that may allow you to escape penalty if one of your agents
inadvertently calls a prohibited phone number.
But beware, taking
advantage of the Safe Harbor, requires more than simply checking
the Do Not Call list. There are rather strict requirements for
recordkeeping, lookup tools, and audit trail that you must follow to be
secure in the safe harbor.
Do Not Call Sentry™ is a tool designed specifically for real estate
that helps you simply, and inexpensively comply with the Do Not Call
regulations and take advantage of the safe harbor
provisions.
Your monthly subscription gives your company everything you need:
-
A fast, easy-to-use lookup tool to check numbers
against both the National Do-Not-Call Registry and your company's DNC
list
-
Check one number at a time, or thousands at once
-
Print your call list or view on-screen
-
Track inquiries, past transactions, and written
permissions to maximize callable numbers
-
Automatic maintenance of your company's DNC list
-
Automatic downloads of the National DNC Registry
-
Safe Harbor compliance tracking
-
Comprehensive management reports
One easy-to-use yet comprehensive solution to your do-not-call problem,
always accessible to your users from any Internet connection.
Don't make an $11,000 phone call!
IMPORTANT:
Do-not call safe harbor compliance must be managed at the company level.
Individual agents or offices acting independently cannot fully protect
themselves.
