I had a really great exp. with a product I am going to market. The owner of the product wants to use my testimonial, photo etc stating specific results Im sure. I don't know how familiar he is yet with FTC guidelines.
If I am giving the testimonial how do new FTC rules apply if it is on his main product site if I am selling it. I of courses suppose I can no longer say how it worked for me ( due to FTC changes) b/c as an affiliate I would have no way of knowing average results and many may by and never use it....
I am not happy that I cannot sing it form the mountain tops when I like a product and state specifically what my results were - How is the FTC ruling not in some ways a violation of FREE SPEECH?
Any thoughts on how I can give a testimonial and what I should say or not say?
