Social Media and Advertising Standards

If you’re advertising a product or service in the health or wellness industry this event is for you!

The legislation and advertising codes make this a complex area and many advertisers find this challenging.

This session will cover:
- Application of the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) Therapeutic & Health Advertising Code
- Important definitions in this Code and how to apply them to your product or service and your advertisement content
- Advertising to treat an illness (therapeutic benefit) versus advertising to support good health (health benefit)
- Testimonials and customer reviews and when it’s problematic to include them in your advertising
- Who is complaining to the ASA in this sector

This session will include a range of ad examples and recent complaints to explain how the ASA’s Therapeutic and Health Advertising Code is applied.
