A 3-Day Strategic Summit
Where Digital Marketers Learn To:
This isn't about theory - it's about practical, proven strategies from those who've faced the FTC directly and know exactly what it takes to market successfully in today's regulatory environment.
Transform high-risk campaigns into compliant ones.
Market effectively while staying fully compliant.
Build systems to prevent costly violations.
Protect assets from regulatory actions.
The State of Marketing Compliance Is Alarming
In an unprecedented study of 500 digital marketing websites, we found that **100% had compliance violations. Here's the breakdown:
The Risk Is Real
The FTC has collected over **$1.5 BILLION from businesses since 2020
Their 2025 budget is a record **$535 MILLION
Most businesses don't realize they're non-compliant until it's too late
The truth is, the old ways of marketing are becoming increasingly dangerous. What worked just a few years ago could now put your entire business at risk.
But there's good news - you can learn how to market effectively while staying completely compliant.
Why This Summit?
Why Now?
You might think you're doing everything right. So did we. Despite:
Having low refund rates - Employing a full-time paralegal.
Investing $1M+ in legal compliance reviews.
Maintaining an "A" BBB rating for years.
Serving over 1 million customers.
It Wasn't Enough.
The $15 Million Wake-Up Call
One FedEx package from the FTC changed everything. The 18-month investigation that followed revealed just how dangerous common marketing practices can be.
The final toll:
$2.5M in direct fines
$700,000+ in legal fees
$1.2M in mandatory document collection costs
An estimated $15M in total impact including lost revenue
And the most shocking part? Many of the violations came from marketing practices that most businesses use every day.
Here's What Makes This Different
This isn't a typical marketing conference. This is a complete transformation of how you approach marketing in today's regulatory environment.
You'll learn exactly how to:
Keep your best-converting marketing strategies while making them compliant
Set up systems to prevent violations before they happen
Build protection around your assets and business
Create marketing that converts better because it's compliant
The old way of marketing is becoming increasingly dangerous. But there's a better way forward - one that protects your business while still driving growth.
