You still have time to sign up for tomorrow's (Aug. 3) webinar on product claims at retail featuring speakers from FTC, The Vitamin Shoppe, CRN, and more. This live 2-hour webinar is titled "Dietary Supplement Claims in the Retail Environment: Role and Responsibilities of Manufacturers and Retailers." It is the latest webinar in partnership with the Council for Responsible Nutrition, and it is $199 per connection, or $149 if you are member of CRN.
Claims at the retail level (whether in a brick-and-mortar store, online, or in network/MLM) are getting more attention from the regulatory agencies and Congress. In fact, the recent Senate hearing on dietary supplements featured undercover recordings of innappropriate claims and medical advice being given by retailers to investigators posing as consumers. Click here to read our coverage of that Senate hearing.
