DNC scrubbing: what happens before the dial

Suppression only works if it is checked at the right moment and written back at the right moment. Both are easy to get wrong when the list moves between systems.

Checked before, not after

The suppression file you maintain is checked before the number is dialed, not after the connect. That sounds obvious until you look at how many floors scrub at list load and then run the same list for three weeks.

Written back immediately

When somebody asks not to be called again, the bot writes it to your suppression file there and then. It does not wait for a wrap-up, and it does not depend on somebody remembering at the end of a shift.

Across campaigns, not just this one

A request to stop calling is a request to stop calling, not a request to stop calling about Medicare. Suppression that only applies to the campaign the person was on is the single most common cause of a complaint that a floor thought it had already handled.

No. The file is yours, maintained by you; the bots check it and write to it. We do not supply leads or contact data of any kind.

Those obligations sit with you as the caller of record. The bots enforce whatever file you give them, as often as you tell them to check it.
