Is an auto dialer illegal?
An auto dialer aka robodialer is illegal in most cases when it simply calls several numbers at once and plays a recorded message, especially when calling consumers and cell phones. An auto dialer simply doesn’t make sense anymore for the majority of users because of illegal ramifications and the fact that you cannot make connections and have conversations with your target audience. Most people will hang up instantly when they hear a recorded message. Dish Network was recently fined millions for unauthorized auto dialer calls.
Who benefits from auto dialing?
Auto dialers can be useful for broadcasting recorded messages or reminders for businesses such as hospitals, doctor’s offices, churches, or universities. Political campaigns are exempt from the laws (surprise surprise) and can also benefit from reaching a big number of people quickly.
Auto dialer alternative
As mentioned, power dialers are an excellent alternative to a traditional auto dialer, especially for sales teams. Agents or reps can make 4x the number of calls dialing by hand, and their information is saved an organized using the software interface. Power dialers do make automated calls, but the agent has complete control since they hear the phone ring and can talk to a customer like they were on a normal phone call.
What is an Auto Dialer?
Traditionally, an auto dialer is a type of dialer that calls a lot of numbers at once and blasts a recorded message. This message may give the person answering the call the ability to “press 1” to speak to a live person. That’s also known as outbound IVR (interactive voice response). You may get these type of auto dialing phone calls on your cell phone, land line or business line, and they’re usually considered a nuisance. They have also become illegal in most cases, especially for calling residential and cell phone numbers.
An auto dialer can also mean a type of dialer that calls several lines and when someone picks up, transfers a call to a live agent. Because the dialer has to determine if it’s a live person, there will generally be a 1-3 second delay. This may also be termed a predictive dialer or a ratio dialer.
Alternatively, some use the term auto dialer to include any type of dialer that makes calls automatically. This may also include a power dialer or preview dialer, since it automatically dials from one number to the next. However, unlike auto dialing software, with power dialers, the user is able to hear the phone ring and speak to someone who answers immediately just like a normal call. When the call finishes, they will be instantly moved onto another call. The agent may have the opportunity to use voicemail drop software built into the power dialer to simply click to leave a pre-recorded voicemail message on an answering machine, while the system moves them onto the next call.

The bottom line, your tools, in the hands of the right staff, is allowing us to have some agents do the work of 1.5 or even 2 agents compared to the past helping us become far more profitable or deliver results on tougher clients that would have likely been a failure due to our calling volume limitations of the past...it’s making a difference.
