my wife is in charge of our Newsletter so we put a NOTICE in the Newsletter stating that the local congregtion of JW have a NEW PROGRAM CALL DO NOT CALL LIST and if you would like to OP-OUT of thier monthly and quarterly visist then be sure to let the next jw who stops by to put your home on thier op-out/ DO NOT CALL LISTWhen I'd take territory out, and look over the do-not-call list on the back, I used to think: 'If everyone, or even just a good number. of people would ask that we not call, we'd really have a problem'. And as he mentioned, when people are made aware that option, many will sign up.
