According to https://www.capterra.com/p/146103/Total-Expert/:

The Total Expert Platform is a central hub which allows mortgage and real estate professionals to collaborate and mutually grow their business. From a single login professionals can create, deploy and track marketing and lead generation across multiple channels. The platform includes patent pending technology that allows marketing and lead generation costs to be shared seamlessly while helping track compliance for all parties involved.

 

 

Per the one review on the site:

This might be a good product if you want to put everyone on a drip campaign.

Pros: It's integrated with BombBomb which we like. Other than seeing the open rate of our BombBomb videos, we haven't found much use for Total Expert.

Cons: It does not support any front end lead management. Yes, great that you can put every contact on some drip marketing campaign, but Total Expert does nothing to support prospect management before a prospect converts into a loan. Once a prospect becomes a loan, Encompass handles all the rest. To use Total Expert, one must spoon feed data into it, and manually remove duplicates! This application has forced me back into using Excel to keep track of prospects! The answers from the help desk and sales reps have been utterly useless. The help desk isn't even sure how to use the product.

Overall: none

Believe it or not, I've never had a Donal Duck lead from any source. But I did have a Mickey Mouse lead once!  I know nothing about totalexpert.net. Never heard of them until now.

At one time I worked for a company that had the names and addresses of everyone in the US. This was all verified data through drivers licenses and other data sources.  For fun,

we used to look up cartoon names.  

If I recall correctly, there are five people in the country legitimately named Fred Flintstone and two Barney Rubbles. They, however, were not neighbors.

Don't trash Donald yet... 

Keep in mind that he may hold an awful lot of Disney stock...

After all he has been around for a long time... 

Remember too that he is related to Scrooge and you've seen all the cash in his vault...
