The Do Not Call (DNC) Registry lets everyone opt out of marketing messages sent to them, but which they are not interested in, in the form of voice calls, text or fax messages. However, they may still be interested in the services, products, and promotions by your company.
To do that, according to the "Personal Data Protection Act", they will have to "… give your company a clear and unambiguous consent in written or other accessible form".
here's the question: How many of your clients will do that on their own accord?
Take your own initiative and be more pro-active by directing them to your online subscription form, sending them the form to opt-in, as well as to place the form on your website for anyone who might be interested in the services, products, and promotions by your company. You can also paste the URL to your social media. If your social media is managed by us, it will be updated in our weekly updates for you.
There are 2 methods to manage the opt-in process and system:
i. Manually

i. Manually
You will receive an email each time there is an opt-in / opt-out, and you will have to manually manage your list by changing the status from opt-in / opt-out each time there is a change.
ii. Using a database system
Conversely, you can make use of a database so that the opt-in / opt-out process can be managed automatically by the system.
When clients opt-in / opt-out, the system will automatically change the status so that you will always be able to see the latest status of each and every subscriber, i.e. your prospects, customers, whenever you log in to the system.
It will also be a very useful evidence in case there is wrongful complaint lodged against your company.
