How much a person pays for DNC (Do Not Call) records depends on what kind of subscriber he/she is. For one of my companies I am Exempt as I do not contact any non-business type of consumers. Thus I get all Area Codes for free. For one of my other companies I "may" call a consumer, so I can get up to 5 Area Codes for free. After that there is an annual fee (I can't recall the amount off-hand, but it is expensive). I also have yet another company that I use to provide my technology services to clients. These clients let me manage their DNC registration, annual renewals, and monthly downloads & updates. They can have up to 5 Area Codes for free. Only two need more than that (10 and 11, both in Southern California's San Bernardino, Riverside, LA and Orange County areas). Each year I pay their FTC fee for Area Codes over their 5 free one, then bill them for the dead cost (I am not allowed to mark it up). More info is available at donotcall.gov.
There are a lot of companies that have jumped into the DNC management game. My hook is that I have tied the Fed DNC and required Internal DNC complaince processes into my core CRM application. So when I crank out a call list for prospects it is scrubbed against the Fed DNC list for the dealer's subscribed area codes, their Internal DNC list, and then "descrubbed" for any Fed DNC nly prospects that may have done business in the past 18 months. Good luck doing THAT by hand for over 100,000 customer records and over 7,000,000 Fed DNC records! Fox handles it GREAT! I have also given seminars on DNC compliance for my clients and some other business groups around the US.
