I'm new to the forum and didn't quite figure out how to get back to my posts and subsequent responses.

Many believe that ongoing management is considered 'goods and services'.No subsequent fundings.

The fees paid for an assignment (wholesale) is little different than any marketing dollar spent to create a call to action and subsequent reaction.

Responses start to kick up after touch 3 and get better with subsequent touches.
