This short YouTube quick-tip (presented by Sam, uploaded by Tom Pelton) combines two practical topics: compliance reminders about the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) — including avoiding automated calls/messages, checking Do-Not-Call (DNC) lists, and individual liability for violations — and step-by-step instructions for Mac users to join a Microsoft Teams meeting (select Join your appointment in the meeting invite, choose Download it now if needed, run the downloaded installer, provide admin credentials if prompted, then sign into Microsoft 365 and open Teams).

We appreciate you being here since this program is optional and discusses best practices for your consideration. If you are thinking of adopting any of them, please make sure to review the requirements in your area region with your broker, branch manager, or manager, including those related to contacting consumers. We do want to highlight the importance of the Telephone Consumer Protection act, better known as tcpa. The general rules are that it's okay to call people if the person recently gave you their phone number, but remember to check the DNC lists regularly if they haven't spoken to that person in a while. You will also want to check the DNC list anytime you don't have permission. Automated calling texting platforms should never be used. Pre recorded messages in artificial voices should never be used. You will be personally liable for any violations of the tcpa. We'll mention the TCPA a few times throughout this presentation. Check your email for the Meeting Invite.
