Our market-driven pricing model has gone public!
It's the model we've used to price  since DoublePositive was founded. Now, our 'Name-Your-Price for Hot Transfers' wizard is available online. Using the dynamics of demand and supply, the wizard lets you see for yourself how the price you're willing to pay for affects the volume we can deliver. You specify filters and then enter a price. The wizard displays the number of available for purchase at that price, depending on what other customers choosing the same filters are willing to pay. You can then adjust your price to increase or decrease the volume of transfers available. Try it and let us know what you think! Name-Your-Price for Hot Transfers
Also, make sure you check out the new design and new features at the client Extranet.
Have a great day!

The FTC has filed a complaint against a nationwide debt consolidation business with violations of the FTC Act and the FTC’s Telemarketing Sales Rule (TSR) and is seeking consumer redress, a freeze of the operation’s assets, and an end to the firm’s illegal practices. According to the FTC’s complaint, the operation used a sham non-profit company to violate telemarketing rules that exempt non-profit entities.
The complaint alleges that the debt consolidation business violated the TSR by failing to disclose the program’s total costs and the limitations of the program’s refund policy. The other allegations include calling phone numbers on the federal Do Not Call Registry, calling consumers who stated that they did not want to receive calls from the defendants, failing to pay the fee to access the Do Not Call Registry, and call abandonment violations.
