#18 - Weight Loss Marketing Is False Advertising

Satisfaction Factor

On this week’s, Naomi & Sadie are diving deep into all things fitness and wellness marketing, calling out some of the more manipulative marketing tactics, and sharing how we can be both more conscious consumers AND responsible in our own work of marketing health-based programs & services. We're talking about: why weight loss marketing is false advertising, before & after photos, results-not-guaranteed testimonials, too-good-to-be-true claims, high pressure sales, pain points, and all kinds of other manipulative marketing techniques. Plus, a fun conversation about ridiculous fitness products (Shake Weight, anyone?) and ridiculous diet claims from grocery aisle magazines!
