The first episode of Venable’s Ad Law Tool Kit Show, Season 2,is now available. Listen to “Negative Option Marketing: Part 2” here, or search for it in your favorite podcast player.
Negative option marketing can include pre-notification negative option plans, continuity programs, automatic renewals, and free-to-pay conversions. This marketing strategy continues to invite scrutiny from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), state attorneys general, and class action plaintiffs.
In this episode, I talk to my co-host on this podcast, Shahin Rothermel, and
Venable partner Ari Rothman about the keys to success in avoiding investigations and liability.
Venable’s Ad Law Tool Kit Show will help you and your organization identify and avoid potentially problematic advertising practices. Over the course of 11 episodes, we examine the increasingly complex regulatory landscape that governs the promotion of goods and services— from Made in USA claims to marketing to children.
If you have specific questions after listening to this episode, don’t hesitate to contact me, Shahin, or Ari to arrange a conversation. And check out more chapters of Venable’s Advertising Law Tool Kit.
