Endorsements, testimonials, influencer campaigns, affiliate promotions, customer reviews, rankings, and social proof marketing practices are increasingly subject to regulatory scrutiny involving disclosure transparency, substantiation standards, deceptive marketing risks, material connection requirements, and operational oversight expectations.
