FCC “Consent” Law

The FCC will put into effect a new “consent” law on January 27th, 2025. Don’t fall for “experts” who can help you through this unless they have a full understanding of the FCC law. This is a federal law that can be enhanced by states. Did the state you live in enhance the law? Talk to your broker, speak to an attorney with FCC knowledge and stay compliant. There is always a path forward and it is always best to know how the law will affect you, if at all.

Mike and the owner of Arch Communication, Steve Cortez, will discuss this at the Production Retreat next week in Palm Desert, CA.

Welcome to Mike Ferry TV. It is the week of January 13th. Well, I guess the key question is have you gone back to work yet? We know that a majority of all agents start with the anticipation of going back to work January 2nd, and usually it's January 22nd before they show up and work again. So, let's make sure you're back to the basics of working every day, five days a week, and doing your job. What I want to talk about today, and I wrote it out very carefully.
