Telemarketing for Mortgage Business
August 15, 2008
The first thing we must all do when looking to tele-market for more business is compliance. You must stay compliant with the national and state DNC (do not call) laws. To do this you must get a SAN (subscription account number) from the do not call registry. This SAN registers you so you can call into certain area codes. They give you 5 area codes for free for one year. If you want to call into more area codes then you can buy them. The registry sells them per area code and last time I checked they ran $62 each. Stick to the 5 free that you can start with and when you make money. Then buy some other area codes if you need to venture outside your call zone.
Mortgage List - Now once you have your SAN number you want to start looking for a list. The main thing to think about is no matter what list vendor or Title Company you use, no matter what database they pull from, always make sure you ask them if they are scrubbing for DNC. You would be suprised what some people are doing out there. Oh wait this is a mortgage forum what am I saying, nothing can suprise you guys. Just make sure your lists are scrubbed for DNC by your SAN #. There are many types of databases that you can pull from which is another post for another day soon. Read more
