Data Monster began March, 2007 in Clearwater Beach, Florida. Our founder Mr.Will Shivers was a Call Center Owner Lead broker / Telemarketing Consultant and specialized in Vacation and Travel related data. As a lead broker and call centers owner he knew the value of quality targeted leads. He also realized it was extremely hard to find a reliable lead or data source that could be depended on for consistency, quality and with a fair price. With this dilemma in hand he attacked the issue head on and opened Data Monster.Data Monster enlisted the help of several call centers and multiple streams of data to target. Data Monster was unique at the time because it specialized in clearing data on the “Do Not Call” ( DNC ) by surveying them and allowing them to be contacted by a third party on behalf of them per their request. All the phone calls and leads came with recordings and / or IP Addresses authenticating the lead. Data Monster beat all of its competitors prices and offered a much better product. These premium leads were cheaper, targeted, surveyed, recorded and DNC cleared, one of the best leads on the market at the time.This process quickly grew Data Monster to one of the largest most recognized lead brokers in the Travel Industry! The laws did however change some years later on how leads could be produced and authenticated forcing Data Monster to switch gears. Keeping customers legal was a top priority of Data Monster’s. While other companies allowed and still allow their customers to dial consumers on the Federal and State DNC, Data Monster absolutely wouldn’t stand for it!The Data Monster process was-stream lined and modified to continue making DNC cleared and legal data for our customers, adhering to any and all changes in the Telemarketing Act and FTC Regulations.
