Don’t keep us a secret! Your TC is of no use to you if no one in the transaction knows they exist.
When a new transaction is open, let your clients know that you're working with a TC, give everyone your TC's contact info, tell them that they will handle the paperwork and signatures and to include your TC in all emails.
