What are the most common reasons for rejecting a solicitation notice?
Insufficient Statement of Respective Obligations. The “statement of respective obligations” must detail precisely the terms of compensation and the services provided. This question requires sufficient details to make clear the exact nature of the contractual relationship in the absence of a copy of the contract. The following example illustrates how to answer this question: “Great Telemarketing, Inc.” (GTI), 543 First Ave, New York, NY, 10036, 212-555-1212, plans and manages a telephone campaign for public support and awareness. GTI charges $4.50 per completed call plus $1.50 per pledge; the contract with Great Community Charity (GCC) runs from January 1, 2003 to December 31, 2003; the campaign will run from August 1, 2003 through October 15, 2003. GTI, through another firm it employs, (firm name), solicits donations on behalf of Great Community Charity. GTI does not itself handle donations but employs the caging company, (company name), that receives, logs and deposits contributions.”
