Please advise if there are any rules and/or regulations on sales calls on who you can call? We are developing a sales call program and I need to make sure we do not violate any regulation on this matter. I would appreciate any advice on this subject. Thanks!!

You may want to refer to your state regs, or state banking associations for this one...many states have consumer privacy and no-calls rules to follow.

Make sure you reference the Telephone Consumer Protection Act.

Where the wind comes sweeping ...
Are you calling on businesses, individuals, or both? There are some different rules for consumers versus businesses.

Yes there are rules but don't be intimidated by them, just understand them. Businesses usually don't have restrictions. Research questions/projects usually don't have restrictions. Banks can get FREE lists of Do Not Call people in their area codes. Email me if you want to discuss further..rick@bankmarketingpros.com

Thank you so much for referring me to this list. I am pretty new to bankers online so I have not learned what all is here and how to get to it. I really appreciate your help and guidance.

By the way, your Nataliebear is a cutie! I just became a grandma for the first time in January(It's a boy, Cayden Ray!)and it is wonderful!! Nothing like spoiling them and then sending them home for the parents to do the hard part!
