Why do I need to be compliant with the "Do-Not-Call" rules and regulations?
Direct marketers who perform telemarketing campaigns are subject to new and more stringent federal and state laws. Over 27 states have passed laws to create statewide "Do-Not-Call" lists. Consumers may request to be placed on these lists, which the telemarketer must purchase and use to not call consumers on the list.
Does the Federal "Do-Not-Call" list apply to me or my business?
The agencies that enforce the Federal "Do-Not-Call" list are the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Each has a definition for telemarketing.

If you or your organization's activities fall under either of the definitions of telemarketing, you are required to comply with the Federal "Do-Not-Call" list. If your organization's activities do not fall under either of these definitions you may still be subject to various state laws concerning telemarketing.
Are you a telemarketer as defined by the Federal Trade Commission's Telemarketing Sales Rule?
"Telemarketing" is a plan, program or campaign conducted to induce the purchase of goods or services or to generate charitable contributions, by use of one or more telephones and which involves more than one interstate telephone call. The term does not include the solicitation of sales through the mailing of a qualified catalog.
What are the costs associated with complying with all the "Do-Not-Call" rules and regulations?
