SMEs urged to have say on ‘Do Not Call’ Register
Small and medium businesses are being urged to have their say on the Government’s plans to extend the Do Not Call Register Act to allow phone and fax numbers to be included on the Do Not Call Register.
The Council of Small Business of Australia (COSBOA) and True Local have put together an online survey designed specifically for Australian SMEs, in order to find out how the changes will affect them.
According to COSBOA CEO Jaye Radisich, if the proposed legislation is passed, small businesses will not be able to call a business to promote, advertise or propose to supply goods, services, land, business opportunities or investment opportunities if the number is on the Do Not Call Register and where there is no prior consent.
Any business that fails to comply with the legislation and calls a business listed on the Do Not Call Register could face fines of up to $1.1 million.
All those who participate in the survey will go in the draw to win a travel voucher to the value of $500 or one of the ten runner up prizes of a $100 gift card.
