Agent Release

THIS is the problem!

This forum should start a thread 'what I wish I would've known to ask' for us newbies out there stumbling around in the dark.
100% agree, a lot of new agents end up going with the first agency they speak with not knowing the right questions to ask. When I first started out I never knew about releases, I thought if it doesn't work out then I'll just leave. Also 100% commission sounds like it's the most you can get......but it's not. I wrote this, it will help the new agent.

6 Questions to ask your Agency as a new agent
 
I have also posted my feeling about a variety of issues. I even went so far as to post that a former member was offering illegally obtained leads. He's gone but even though I was proven correct his buddy Monkey Boy attacked me for that and continues to troll me.

The bottom line is there is no upside for an agent to help others. As my late friend Frank Stastny used to say, "No good deed goes unpunished."

You thought avatar leads were illegal even before May of 2017, or that the leads he sold weren't really avatar leads?

It seems like it was the former, but all of the FE leads that I bought or heard samples of weren't using avatar "technology" anyway. It sounded kind of like they were interactive, but really it was just all timed. The person controlling the recording might hang up if someone was uncooperative, but didn't use avatar "technology" to make the call actually be interactive. I received some calls like that (not about FE) where I realized it wasn't a live person talking to me and so I interjected "Who are you with?" and the voice came back with something that made sense. If I'd asked what the capital of California was I probably wouldn't have gotten a correct answer. But someone had some control to make it at least a little interactive.

So my experience was that what were called avatar leads even before May of 2017 were really just timed to sound interactive, but were not.
