By now you all
know that the green state debt settlement model is on its last legs. In
fact, many attorney based debt resolution models have ceased to take new files
from their debt
resolution affiliates until they can figure out how to make the necessary
adjustments to be in compliance with the Schumer-McCaskill Debt Settlement Amendment #3960. Are
you? If not, do you know your liability?

With that
said, you may want to ask your backend
debt settlement processing company if they're in compliance because it's
unlikely that Schumer-McCaskill, Rockefeller, and Michael L.
Mallow and Michael A. Thurman of California who
have also proposed severe legislation for the debt settlement industry, Updated Summary of Proposed California Debt Settlement Act (AB
350) will go easy on them for violating the entire purpose of the bill.
And what
else? How about CNBC and their variety of informative views on the legalization of marijuana, so this Country can get back on
its feet with the taxes
earned by selling and regulating it. So I got to thinking and perhaps the
debt settlement affiliates, not the debt resolution
affiliates should be calling the pot smokers who buy pot and forget to pay
their credit card bills in fear of identity theft. Huh?
Would the
proposed legislation in California to legalize marijuana by the end of 2010
allow one to purchase marijuana (we're not talking medical marijuana, but it's fitting)
with a credit card, so someday they can enroll in an attorney based debt resolution
program whereby they're getting their highs for 50 cents on the
dollar?
Let's get
serious! What you've read and your wanting to continue reading has led you
to reading over 300 words so far. Up to date unique topics of interest
that may push the envelope, but are familiar to what the average American finds
intriguing, make for organic debt resolution leads that convert to well informed, happy
clients and many more closed deals.
As for the
aforementioned puffers, they'll likely click on "Lists" like debt settlement links or
debt resolution sites like how does debt resolution work or how does credit
repair work and they'll type into Google search best debt
resolution companies (view your competitors links - take notes on
what you see and what your reaction
to the site would be as a consumer looking for your product or debt resolution
services.)
Content (Articles) is
undoubtedly king folks and seemingly trumps Google adwords, as more and more debt settlement
affiliates and attorney
debt resolution affiliates are finding that consumers are becoming
measurably smarter every day. It's no doubt when you consider that
they're getting a free education about their debt resolution options with every
solicitors call for their debt settlement business. And while content is
king; placement of these articles is equally important. In other words,
knowing who, where and how to submit these articles is just the beginning of
"placement of articles."
Ready?
Here's the game plan; click on all the links in this article and see where they
take you. Click on your competitors links once you get there and see what
they're doing that you should be doing. It may sound remedial, but are
you in reality experiencing the illusion of progress or was last month about
the same as this month and nothing really exciting is offering you a catalyst
to being able to see behind the curtain of how the big boys do it? FYI: Get
to know your competition online, learn what works and why, buy debt resolution articles and
start closing more deals.
Considering
the benefits of investing in free debt resolution leads should enable you to make an informed
decision on whether to continue depending on third party debt settlement leads or having
expert debt settlement articles, debt resolution articles, tax relief articles,
etc. that drive qualified and informed (by you) consumers to your site(s),
whereby they're calling you (not you calling them) and or filling out your
forms "to be contacted" about your debt resolution services on your
lead capture pages or as they're otherwise called, squeeze pages and landing
pages. Do you need a landing page to start creating your own organic
leads or are you hoping that they pass the bill to legalize marijuana, so you
can grow some organic hydro?

Are Debt Settlement Affiliates Down to
20 Green States?
Updated 5-18-2010 - 9:45pm
With Mayors, Senators and Attorney Generals hot on the
trail of unregulated debt settlement companies that have seemingly grown
viral by setting up debt
settlement affiliates, the end looks near. Likely not, but as soon as next week or at latest
June 15th 2010, rulings are expected. Talk about the rug being
pulled out from beneath you if you're still dependent on the remaining 20 debt settlement "green
states". Their claim, explained in
the Reader's Digest version; debt settlement sales agents promoting debt
settlement services have been recorded saying, "stop paying your credit cards, I can settle your debt for
25 cents on the dollar."
Sen. Charles E.
Schumer (D-N.Y.) is planning to introduce a bill this week that would
prohibit the debt settlement industry's advance fees and cap the total amount
charged. It would also allow consumers to cancel the program and receive a
refund.
It would probably be in your best interest not being one of the debt settlement sales agents claiming to be affiliated with government
agencies or federal stimulus programs, as they too have been recorded by
Federal Agencies.
At this point, if you're still hard wired for the debt settlement business vs. the attorney
based debt resolution program, you might find yourself being frowned upon by
friends and business associates, as daily news stories are being publicized by
major periodicals like Reuters, The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN,
CNBC, ABC, NBC, FOX just to name a few, exploiting the amount of consumer
complaints.
Let's get specific.
"It is appalling beyond words," Sen. John D.
Rockefeller IV (D-W.Va.), who heads the committee, said at the hearing.
"These debt-settlement
companies are kicking people when they are down."
Friday, April 23, 2010, "A government investigation into the burgeoning debt-settlement industry has found that many firms misled consumers by claiming to be affiliated with federal stimulus programs and exaggerating their ability to reduce consumers' loans," reported the Washington Post.
Fast forward to not
having to deal with this problem. Many call
centers, mortgage offices, credit repair companies, loan modification companies
and the like have already made the move from the once thriving debt settlement
green state model, to the more widely accepted and consumer friendly attorney
based debt resolution model. The
advantages include the ability to service 48 States while your clients are
properly represented by a debt
resolution attorney in every state.
Upon your client finding
value in your fully explained attorney based debt resolution program,
they immediately receive a call from a paralegal welcoming them to the program.
Your client is now a client of a law firm that that has a fiduciary
responsibility to their clients as per their law license. Lastly, the paralegal give your customer
their contact information and informs them to call them directly in the future. Wow.
This is icing on the cake next to not being shut out of the debt
settlement industry all together.
Then again and in all
likelihood, the debt settlement industry won't just go away, but regulation, as
proposed by the aforementioned information may squeeze out the under capitalized
back end debt settlement affiliates says, Richard Preisig.
TASC Responds to IL Attorney General with "Facts"
TASC corrects misstatements made by AG Lisa Madigan, Chicago Sun-Times
Madison, Wis. (PRWEB) April
15, 2010 -- The Association of Settlement Companies (TASC), the debt settlement
industry’s largest trade group, today responded to misstatements and inaccurate
information released by Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan and the Chicago
Sun-Times. The Association of Settlement Companies “There are many good debt settlement
companies who are helping tens of thousands of consumers resolve their debt
when no other help is available,” David Leuthold, executive director of TASC,
said. “Characterizing the entire
industry negatively is wrong and only misleads consumers in the end.” Read full

Debt Settlement Live Leads Come from Well Written Content.
He's
said it before and he's saying it again - Rich
Preisig says, "the future of debt
settlement content and or debt
resolution content, as it applies to debt settlement
affiliates and attorney based debt resolution partners has never
changed, but leaders of the smallest businesses are proving again and again
(we're talking mom's at home) that now is the time to invest in your own search
engine optimization techniques and create your own debt
settlement leads." Sales offices are starting to realize
that they can't rely on 3rd party leads any longer, so the answer is invest in debt
settlement articles and debt
resolution articles that drive traffic to your landing page(s).
Richard
Preisig states, "these lead generation factories are smarter
than all of us, as they just provide the fuel that the tanks need to go to war,
but doesn't that make you the tank that goes to war?!" This
double edged sword has triggered a plan-b for debt settlement branch office owners. There isn't a debt
settlement lead company in the nation that can create better lead conversion
than the one you can create yourself by posting credible
and informative debt resolution content about your debt
resolution company. Pssst. ... Don't make it out to be more than it
is. I'm going to walk you through it.
These
types of leads are considered "organic", as you didn't pay for them
like traditional banner advertising, adwords, etc., that are posted as long as
you keep paying for them to be posted. Remember, what you publish is
there forever. It's like a permanent advertisement that has one way links
to your landing page(s), where you capture your prospective debt resolution
clients' information and the more sites your articles are published on the more
organic "free" leads you're going to receive.
The
amount of people looking for credit card negotiation affiliates or debt
settlement net branches to settle their debt is growing each and every
day. When Rich Preisig was viewing television, he watched 3
debt
settlement commercials in less than 2 hours while watching golf.
Simply
put, it would be considered average to invest 15%-20% of your monthly marketing
budget into these aforementioned methods if you're truly going to capitalize on
the next 2-3 years of attorney debt resolution, "green state" debt settlement and debt
consolidation. This is the wrong time to watch what happens to the guy
that did.
So,
before you blow up your budget with so-so exclusive live
debt settlement leads or radio
and tv debt settlement leads, buy a dozen articles and start
generating your own free debt settlement leads with debt settlement articles and or debt resolution
content? Call - 203.992.7411
Those
aware of the stunning results of applying Web2.0
search engine optimization techniques to enriched
debt resolution content that's saturated with hand chosen keywords
and keyword phrases, do not buy third party leads. None. These attorney based debt resolution net branches rely
solely on expertly written content that drives readers to click on their
links. Do you need this!
We
bet you "click a link" and so will your readers!
