Advice:AM Social Media

Overview

16 May 2019 | 09.30 - 11.30

Social media is now a core medium for many marketers and the range of platforms available allows advertisers to reach wide audiences. Making sure marketing communications on social media can be identified as ads is important, as well as ensuring that they do not mislead or offend consumers.

The seminar, delivered by ASA and CAP experts, will provide an in-depth look at the rules for social media advertising. Attendees will benefit from hearing a range of real-life case studies to help understand the rules further and ensure their marketing communications on social media are recognisable.

Each attendee will be given access to our 'Insiders' Guide to the ASA and CAP' online training module. This will give you a base level of knowledge of the regulatory system, to enable you to get the most out of the seminar.

This seminar will provide you with two CPD hours.
