Establishing a people search strategy

Author — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 12:34:22 +0000

If you are reading this article in detail then you are probably someone who has found it necessary to locate someone or something about them. If you just need a phone number you will not need the advice contained herein. Nor is it for you if you just need an address and all you have is a phone number - either current or prior. What we are talking about here is the need for legally verifiable contact and location data on someone who is probably attempting to elude you - or staying hidden.

This undoubtedly means that you will need two things. First, you will need to use the services of a professional, internet-based people finder firm who can get you instantaneous access to hundreds of databases worldwide - for a relatively small fee. Second, you’ll need a detailed strategy to get the job done - with the minimum investment of time and money.

Finding an online people search firm is pretty easy - there are dozens of them that advertise constantly. Stay away from the freebies that promise free information records - only to hit you up for the fee after the search is complete but before they have revealed the information to you. You should select a reputable firm and be prepared to pay about $30-$50 for a one-time membership that typically lasts a year. Find one that has a good reputation and membership in the appropriate associations.

Your real need is a search strategy - and the more critical your need is, and/or the less you know about the person, the more necessary it becomes. It sounds unnecessary or overkill to many people who think it’s a one-shot deal. That is true if you are searching for someone who left city ‘A’ and moved to city ‘B’ several years ago. If you are looking for a debtor or someone who is largely a total stranger you will often be performing many searches. That is because you will be doing several searches - possibly just to verify one piece of data, like their SSN The results of that search become a set of data that you can sift for key elements to your next search.

Your strategy should always begin with what you know. Oddly enough, this is where most strategies fail. Many people start with data - as search elements - that they ASSUME to be accurate and are disappointed in their ultimate results. So, start with the assumption that your initial set of data MAY be accurate and seek to verify it. Write out a strategy and have someone else look at it, beginning with what you know or believe. Start your search and expand with every search until you get a hit of key data, then revise your strategy. Keep good records and re-review your strategy every couple weeks. This is the kind of strategy that works.

These are the elements to a qualified strategy that you should use in attempting to select a people finder and conduct a search. If you are trying to find people or find address this kind of strategy is a godsend.

In legal terms, how would you call someone who steals customers by using your business name?

This is what happened:
I am a residential cleaning business owner. Three months ago I decided to sign up with ServiceMagic to get some leads. Since this was not working as I expected I terminated their services after a month.
Well, today I was googling the name of my company (just wanted to check what appeared in the web) and noticed that my business' name that appeared listed in the local google pages and the Service Magic profile, that was supposed to be deleted, were still there under this company's contact information. You know what I mean? It was my Company's Name and Profile but instead showing my phone number it showed theirs.
To make matters worst, a current customer called me and said he referred a friend to set an appoinment with us but he was unable to do so. Well, guess what? He typed the name of my company in Google and found us in the local business, when he entered the web page it happened to have ServiceMagic number and was told by a representative that my company did not serve his area and recommended a different company that was nearby and, of course, in business with ServiceM. I was taken by surprise! Can you imagine??? Someone was looking for my business and ended being directed to a different telephone number that has nothing to do with ours and also be referred to a competitor.
I want to take legal action immediately and don't know exactly how to start. If someone looks for my business online because of our reputation "well gained" and end finding ServiceMagic number I am in serious trouble again. I will lose this prospect due to this @#$$! Help Please!

Can anyone recommend a good online college?

Author — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 19:12:26 +0000

I'm a very busy person so I really do not have time to go back to school to finish my degree. I've heard quite a few people talk about how they finished their degrees online so, I'm curious. Now the tough part is, where do I go? I need some recommendations as to which online school would be the best and would fit my needs. I tried contacting a few online schools but, it became more of a hassle then an easy going process. Once you give them your phone number they call you constantly and insist on you giving your whole life story and making a commitment on their time. I really don't like feeling pressured into enroll at a school I know nothing about. I would rather like to feel that I made that choice for myself. So, here's the skinny. I'm looking for an online school that offers a course for a bachelors in human services (social work) and human resource administration. Can anyone recommend any sites? Help!

In what states is any degree from ITT Tech accepted? How much money is it to attend per term, roughly?

Author — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 00:01:27 +0000

I intend to take an online course: Business Administration, Bachelor of Science, Marketing Option.

Anyone who has completed this course, could you please answer me: how many terms/semesters does this program take/have in total?

'What' is the difference between a term and semester, if any, anyway?

Which states accept a degree from ITT Tech?

How much money would I end up paying? Per term/semester? After a whole year? After I finish the whole program?

They 'will' send me by certification of program completion, won't they?

What kind of equipment would I need for this course (example: laptop, capacity in laptop -- hard-drive, hertz, RAM -- hardware, software, etc.)?

And lastly, it's understood some interaction between peers is still required for assignment completion? How would that work?

I ask so much only because I prefer knowing the pros and cons of things before committing myself to anything. And before giving the school my basic information, such as phone number/e-mail address...

Thank you so much in advance.

P.S. If it was up to me, 50 points would go to anyone who can answer me these questions!
First, thank you for answering my questions at all DEE W and Desert Fox.

I guess your answers answer it. ITT Tech is out of my options. I come upon horror stories after horror stories about this school.

Oh, well... I guess AWC state college it is.

Thanks so much for your input!
