I really wonder why the 2 of you keep entertaining this foolishness, LOL! I really don't take this person seriously because if you notice how you guys ask questions they are always avoided.

I assume the purpose of this site is to educate people. Future readers can read what you've read and come to the same conclusion that you have come to. That would have been more difficult to do without seeing the answers given (or not given) in response to our legitimate questions / comments.
At a minimum, folks reading our questions/responses will come to understand the issues that need to be taken into account when setting up a billing service. Hopefully, this larger discussion (it spans several different thread/topics) will help answer questions and generate new ones for the folks who are serious about setting up legitimate billing services. Knowing the right questions to ask is often key to succeeding at an endeavor.

Alicia, your absolutely right.
--- Quote ---From what I am told, the appointment is made in 1% of the calls made; however the close ratio of the appointments is 85%.
Apparently $30 is enough money for off shore companies to filter the 99%; I am happy to work with a company in US that would do it for that price.

Do you know how OLD that statistic is? It also mirrors the OLD statistic of 1% return rate on mailings. <sigh> You sound sold and you sound like you are choosing cost over things I would consider too important to oversee. COST savings means nothing if I'm going to leave a bad taste in the mouths of my potential client. Again, you sound like it's a go so I'm not sure why the back and forth. PERSONALLY the savings wouldn't be enough for me to choose offshore over giving someone in the US a job. J M H O again.

Obviously this is a board for educating others. I have been a member of this board for several years and have seen these types of characters come and go. I am skeptical of this person and the tone I was using was sarcastic.

This person does not need a response from me. If there was an ignore button, I would use it.
