Full company name is better for sender identification compliance under s17.\n\nYOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED:\nQ1: Cold introductory SMS to a business = YES, it's a CEM. Any message offering/advertising/promoting goods or services is caught. No grey area.\nQ2: NO B2B exemption. Schedule 1 of the Spam Act only exempts factual information, government/charity/political, and educational institutions. Commercial B2B is fully covered.\nQ3: ABN not required by Spam Act specifically, but best practice. 'RateRight Pty Ltd' in footer is sufficient for s17 identification.\nQ4: No state-level requirements beyond the federal Spam Act.\n\nTHE BIG ISSUE — CONSENT: Cold outreach to contractors who haven't opted in is technically non-compliant under s16. Realistic options:\n(a) Phone calls for first contact (not covered by Spam Act)\n(b) Get express consent via another channel first\n(c) Accept the risk — ACMA targets large-scale offenders, but it IS technically a breach\n\nACMA can impose penalties up to .22M per day for serious/repeated breaches. In practice, they warn first for small operators.\n\nNEW DEADLINE: SMS Sender ID Register mandatory from 1 July 2026. If we use a branded sender ID, must register or messages labelled 'Unverified'.
