I would like to request and update to my Affiliate Portal to add phone number to the Send A Referral page. My orgainization is a nonprofit that specializes in credit education and credit disputing. We don't charge for our service; they are free. Therefore the Telemarketing Sale Rule doesn't apply to our company.

Hey Therese Barefield, thanks for your feedback! I have a few more questions for you:
- What specific information should be included with the phone number on the Send A Referral page?
- Are there any privacy or consent considerations we should be aware of when adding phone numbers to the referral page?
- How do you envision the phone number feature enhancing the referral process for your organization?

Keenan Jones Thank you for following up with me. I would like to propose adding a section for my affiliates to input a phone number for their referrals. I don’t foresee any privacy or consent concerns, as most of my affiliates are loan officers or real estate agents who secure permission from clients before referring them to us. Implementing this phone number feature would significantly enhance the referral process for my nonprofit, enabling us to follow up more effectively with clients. Often, the email addresses provided may be incorrect, or our follow-up emails end up in spam folders, leading to client frustration when they expect our contact. Relying solely on email limits our follow-up capabilities. Moreover, this would streamline our team’s efforts, helping clients improving their credit and achieving their goals more quickly. Thank you for considering this suggestion.
