Ringless Voicemail Is Ruled Out
A federal district court judge has ruled that ringless voicemails and voicemail drops are in fact “calls” and fall within the purview of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 (TCPA) allowing the lawsuit of Saunders v.

Many of our real estate investing customers prefer to use our Batch Search tool for skip tracing property owners and addresses.

Our Batch Search tool requires a first name and last name so if these family trusts are included in a batch, they won't return a result. But … [Read more...]
Custom Messages Turn Calls Into Leads
Last week I did a demo with Jen, a real estate investor who is looking for skip tracing software. She said he had a great phone system for getting leads from bandit signs, yellow letters, and door hangers. When I called her bandit sign number I got a different message.“This Mailbox Is Full”. Jen’s campaign was successful but her system was failing. She freaked out at the thought of losing leads. Then I showed her how to build a bullet-proof system with BellesLink phone numbers … [Read more...]
