KNOW BEFORE YOU BUY ## Local Louisiana regulations Louisiana has specific telemarketing laws that businesses must comply with to avoid penalties. * **Telemarketers must adhere to strict calling hours of 8 AM to 8 PM, Monday through Saturday**; calls on Sundays, legal holidays, and during declared states of emergency are prohibited, as outlined by [LPSC DNC General Order R-29617](https://www.lpsc.louisiana.gov/docs/DNC/DNCGeneralOrder.pdf). * **Businesses must register with the Louisiana Public Service Commission (LPSC)** and purchase quarterly copies of the [Do Not Call](https://www.lpsc.louisiana.gov/DNC%5FSolicitorFAQ) Register before placing any solicitation calls to residential subscribers, with registration fees starting at approximately $800 annually. * **Violators face civil penalties of $1,500 per violation**, $3,000 per violation when the subscriber is age 65 or older, and up to $10,000 per violation for solicitors who fail to register with the LPSC before making calls, as outlined by [LSA-R.S. 45:811](https://legis.la.gov/Legis/Law.aspx?d=100115). These regulations emphasize the need for businesses to adhere to state-specific rules when engaging in telemarketing within Louisiana. LOCAL ECONOMY ## Why do business in Louisiana? Louisiana's economic outlook for 2026 is underpinned by the state's critical role in America's energy infrastructure, a massive petrochemical manufacturing corridor, and a vibrant tourism and culture economy. * **Energy:** The energy industry is the backbone of Louisiana's economy, generating 306,750 jobs, [$25.5 billion in annual earnings](https://www.opportunitylouisiana.gov/news/why-the-global-energy-future-runs-through-louisiana), and adding $77.7 billion annually — 25% of the state's total economic output. Louisiana is the nation's top exporter of liquefied natural gas, responsible for more than 62% of all U.S. * **Petrochemical Manufacturing:** Louisiana produces [approximately 25% of the nation's total petrochemicals](https://www.lmoga.com/benefits-of-the-industry/economic-impact), concentrated along the 85-mile Chemical Corridor between Baton Rouge and New Orleans — one of the world's largest concentrations of chemical manufacturing. Companies including Dow, Shell, ExxonMobil, BASF, and Formosa Plastics process crude oil and natural gas into plastics, fertilizers, resins, and industrial chemicals. * **Tourism and Culture:** Tourism expenditures in Louisiana reached [$17.1 billion in 2022](https://www.britannica.com), supporting 174,600 jobs statewide. New Orleans remains a global destination for music, cuisine, and festivals — including Mardi Gras, Jazz Fest, and the French Quarter Festival — while the state's plantation tours, bayou country, and Cajun culture draw visitors year-round. Overall, Louisiana's economy in 2026 is shaped by its dominant position in U.S. energy exports, a world-scale petrochemical manufacturing corridor, and a culturally rich tourism sector, ensuring continued economic significance and strategic national importance.
