I've been imposing on some familiar names for a while, and I don't want to wear out my welcome with the veterans, so I'd really like to get some new relievers in the bullpen this year. If you're interested, please contact me at the address above (remove the QRM), and give me a thumbnail sketch of your backgrond. Thanks for thinking about it.

Klein Telemarketing is sometimes misunderstood, oversimplified, and even viewed negatively. There is much more to it than the unexpected call you get from a strange number while you're trying to enjoy dinner. Reaching out to consumers using the phone is often an essential tool for most businesses. Getting the consumer on a phone call to respond to an inquiry or provide the necessary counsel and advice to qualify them for a product or service is not only helpful but, in some cases, a must. https://www.mondaq.com/unitedstates/advertising-marketing-branding/952346/the-complete-almost-tcpa-checklist-for-telemarketers?email_access=on -- Bill Horne Telecom Digest Moderator ------------------------------ Message-ID: <20200616183640.GA4289@telecom.csail.mit.edu> Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2020 18:36:40 +0000 From: Moderator <telecomdigestsubmissions@remove-this.telecom-digest.org> Subject: Mobile Phones Advertising Campaign Raises Claims Of Unfair Commercial Practices And Of Misleading Advertising by Ricardo Henriques (Abreu Advogados) and Margarida Castillo Silva On the 28th of May of 2020, the Advertising Ethics Jury of the Self-Regulating entity was presented with a dispute to decide on the validity of a mobile phones advertising campaign on the Internet, namely on an online store and on social networks such as Facebook and Instagram.
