Most third party sales are attained either from telemarketing or direct mail campaigns.  During a campaign, we work with the client to select a number of credit card or mortgage customers (several hundred thousand to a million or more) to contact.  If the customer decides to purchase the product, they are enrolled through Cinch’ system by one of the following methods:

1. Pre-load – Applications are loaded into TIMX Warranty (enrollment system) prior to the customer’s acceptance of the program. Once the customer accepts, the application is converted to a contract or membership.
   
2. Direct Enrollment – When the customer’s information has not been pre-loaded or pre-enrolled, the enrollment is entered directly in TIMX Warranty.  This is initiated upon the customer’s request via telephone or mailed in application.
