RE/MAX Approves PossibleNOW To Provide A
Safe Harbor Defense for Do Not Call Compliance
ATLANTA, GA – January 22, 2004 – PossibleNOW, the trusted
leader in providing comprehensive and cost-effective compliance solutions
to direct marketers, has been named an Approved Supplier for RE/MAX
International, Inc. and will offer RE/MAX real estate professionals
an effective solution for compliance with federal and state Do Not
Call regulations.
PossibleNOW’s web-based compliance solutions provide a set
of tools that help its users comply with all aspects of the state
and federal Do Not Call laws. DNCQuickcheck is specifically designed
to deliver regulatory compliance tools to the individual agent. Above
all, DNCQuickcheck gives agents the ability to identify consumers
who don’t want to be contacted.
“Federal law now requires that real estate professionals and
their companies have policies and procedures established to avoid
placing prohibited calls. PossibleNOW offers tools to meet these compliance
requirements and to provide compliance documentation and information
that can be audited to assist with an affirmative defense,” states
Scott Frey, PossibleNOW CEO.
Frey continues, “DNCQuickcheck helps eliminate potential liability
from calling campaigns and is easily integrated into the marketing
practices used by real estate agents today. For instance, if a RE/MAX
agent sees a For Sale By Owner sign or identifies a neighborhood they
want to market into, they can use DNCQuickcheck to proactively eliminate
Do Not Call numbers from their calling campaigns. This helps agents
with prospecting efforts as well as meeting compliance regulations.”
In addition to list scrubbing and compliance reporting, DNCQuickcheck
helps companies comply with new regulations by offering:
-
Staff training on correct procedures for complying with Do
Not Call laws
- Policy Wizard, which provides the steps necessary in developing
a company policy
-
Automatic delivery of the company’s Do Not Call policy
to consumers upon request
- Identifies the pertinent “Established Business
Relationship Rules” associated with DNC phone numbers.
- Notification about changing Do Not Call regulations
- Management of an internal, company-wide Do Not
Call and Do Not Contact lists
“Certainly, RE/MAX brokers and sales associates want to abide
by Federal and state ‘Do Not Call’ regulations,” comments
Bruce Benham, RE/MAX senior vice president and chief technology officer. “RE/MAX
members doing any type of telephone prospecting need to investigate
PossibleNOW.com because they offer efficient and effective answers
as well as numerous benefits and services.”
