Do Not Call rules restrict certain telemarketing calls to numbers on federal or state DNC lists. Wholesalers running outbound campaigns need suppression and compliance processes.

Do Not Call (DNC) explained

DNC compliance is a serious operational requirement for cold calling and SMS teams. Wholesalers should suppress known DNC numbers, respect opt-outs, document consent where applicable, and avoid treating compliance as a dialer setting only. Rules can vary by campaign type, state, and relationship with the prospect, so operators should work with qualified counsel and use conservative processes. VA teams need clear scripts for opt-out requests and wrong-party calls.

Example

Before a calling campaign starts, the list is scrubbed against DNC sources and callers are trained to mark any opt-out immediately in the CRM.
