ATLANTA, GA – January 19, 2005 – PossibleNOW, the trusted
source for comprehensive Internet-based Do Not Call protection solutions,
announces their participation in the Very Important REALTOR® (VIR)
Partner Program of the REALTOR® Association of West/South Suburban Chicagoland.
The professional organization represents more than 12,000 REALTORS®
and
is the fourth largest local REALTOR® association in the US.
As a member of the association’s VIR program, PossibleNOW will offer
RWSSC members special rates for access to DNCQuickcheck™, an effective
online service for compliance with federal and state Do Not Call regulations.
DNCQuickcheck, specifically designed to meet the compliance needs of real
estate professionals, provides a complete set of tools to ensure compliance
with all aspects of the federal and state Do Not Call laws. REALTORS® can
quickly and easily identify consumers who don’t want to be contacted.
Verifying phone numbers prior to placing calls saves time, boosts marketing
efforts, and helps ensure compliance.
“Phone prospecting plays an important role in many real estate marketing
campaigns,” states Scott Frey, CEO of PossibleNOW. “However,
real estate professionals must follow state and federal Do Not Call laws
or risk costly fines. Using DNCQuickcheck lets REALTORS incorporate Do
Not Call compliance into their marketing campaigns. Prior to calling any
expired listings, referrals, or FSBOs, REALTORS can immediately verify
the Do Not Call status of the phone number with DNCQuickcheck.”
Frey explains, “Do Not Call compliance goes well beyond simply checking
phone numbers. Real estate professionals must ensure complete compliance
including handling requests from consumers to be placed on the company’s
Do Not Call list. They must also create documentation that can be audited
to assist with an affirmative defense against any unwarranted claims. That’s
exactly what DNCQuickcheck offers.”
“Our organization represents more than 12,000 REALTORS in one of
the nation’s top residential markets,” says Pam Krieter, CEO
of RWSSC. “Our members needed a cost-effective solution for Do Not
Call compliance. PossibleNOW’s DNCQuickcheck exceeds our expectations
with its affordability, ease of use and full range of features.”
