Gee, if the cost of marketing doubled, tripled, or more, you don't think that the cost of goods and services will rise to match that?

Huh? That makes no sense at all.

The solution to the problem, was far worse. Technology today is not capable of enforcing, monitoring, screening the information. I will tell you, the industry of sales had no clue, on how to comply with this crap. Screening one database with thousands of numbers, against another with millions, then screening for two or three more variables is something that virtually no software can do. I've worked for a few Fortune 100 companies. Uniformally, they cannot afford to keep up with the rapid change, and cost of software and hardware. I'm not a professional computer person, but have used software and hardware extensively during my sales career. Compliance was to the point that the only option was NO calls PERIOD!

The IT end of it isn't difficult whatsoever. In that regard you're misinformed.

Ok tech genius. I've got 6,000 names in my computer system. It includes clients, prospects, my do not call list, vendors, internal support, etc..

Now I'd like you to take my list and screen it against 4 different area codes. Then, I'd like you to opt back in the DNC numbers that are exempt, my clients and parent co, delete out the parent companies opt out program.

Please do so for not only me, but 300 others, every quarter, in a cost efficient responsive manner with 100% accuracy.

Please tell me which software program has million number capability? Act doesn't, Access doesn't, Goldmine doesn't, Excell can't......
