I have developed an auto accept program that I have been using for my own use for a while. I recently decided that I may offer it as a service for the agents not in my area that may be interested.

Let me explain before the onslaught of flaming begins.

It does NOT continuously refresh the screens and pick up whatever happens to be there.

It screens the mass emails sent to you for zipcodes you want, fees, and interior/exterior.

I was not a big fan of the screen refreshers and imacros robots... so I just screened the emails instead.

I have never had a problem from the BPO companies with the program. I figured, if they decided to email blast it out for a world of agents to fight over, then I decided I'd do my best to be first in line to grab it. Since your not constantly refreshing their screen... you shouldn't be sucking up their bandwidth and therefore they shouldn't have any issues.

As I turn this into a service, I'm looking for a few people to help me beta test it. There's presently no website up and no bells and whistles... so I'm going to offer it for free to a few people for a limited time while I work out some details. It will still forward all of the emails to you... so you won't miss anything while I'm honing it.

If you frequently get email blasts for PCV Murcor and would like to test this out, please PM me with:

email address
City and State

I will not give out the list of people who PM me.

I know some of you will have issues with this. I apologize if this does not fit into your idea of how BPOs should be accepted and I wish you luck and success with your BPO/REO business.

I suppose I should add something else.

I was planning on testing it with PCV Murcor, but YES it currently does work with other companies. I just don't want to get in over my head... so starting with pcv murcor and will add other companies from there.

If you have a special request for a few companies, put it in the PM to me. I'll start building out from the ones that have the most requests.

I like the idea graysqwl. I had one I used to use with Landam, but I don't do their orders now so I don't use one. However I don't get blasts anymore that I want. PCV just gives me headaches the few times I accept their orders. Keep going with your idea no matter what people on here say. If you can get the order no matter by what means and do quality work and get the order done on time then by all means do what you gotta do.

i dont know why we are expecting a backlash anymore. i mean, if we are going to not embrace technology that gets stuff done faster, then we all need to get rid of the email functions on our phones, b/c thats just another way to get more orders fast.

im sorry, but i dont see the issue here. llike colobroker said, do a good job, follow the rules, and get it done.

Thanks king & colobroker. I was half expecting the Troll comment (although I've been a member here for 4 years and have around 200 posts). I wasn't really expecting anyone to post positive comments... but it seems both of you share my opinions. Thank you for voicing your opinions.

I actually created it to have more stability for myself. I figured if I could consistently pick up 6 or 7 total every day from various companies, then I could have a steady work flow... decent paychecks... and I could get away from being overwhelmed by accepting every offer possible when there was a big drop. The end result was around the same number of monthly BPOs I had done previously, but much more sanity, and far better quality of work.

I've received a decent amount of PMs so far, so despite the few nay-sayers, it appears there's many more people in the forum willing to embrace this.

If PCV Murcor isn't your mass email blaster company of choice, still PM me and let me know what company you'd like to be able to auto accept. Maybe you can help me test out an auto accept specifically for that company.

Thanks everyone!

well call me a Tech-no-turd if you wish, but how is this "beta" software going to outrun/outdo the Auto-Accept software that some people are using to ping the site directly, before the blast is sent??? Free is probably the Top Dollar this capibility is worth.

Just my 5 cents worth

i dont know about that.

To me, an order isnt blasted when its emailed out. Its blasted when its on the site available for anyone to see. the email is just the notification that the order is there.

maybe i got it backwards.

Just my humble opinion..........

1. A blast is when an email goes out to more that one agent.
2. An email to just one agent could be considered "auto assigned".
3. Orders "sitting in queue", whether you get an email notification or play click monkey.

I've been known to be wrong at times, but never on Wednesday.....lol........just my two cents.
