Additional business information
On 6-28-19, BBB contacted Iron Will's Boot Camp about the statement "GRAND OPENING FREE 6 WEEK CHALLENGE!!!" on their business Facebook page of https://www.facebook.com/IRON-WILLS-BOOT-CAMP-774370966245882. BBB asked the business to substantiate, modify, or discontinue this claim to be in accord with BBB's Code of Advertising. No response was received from the business. On 7-1-19, BBB again contacted the business. A response was received on 7-3-19 from the business. On 7-12-19, BBB sent a follow-up letter. No response was received. On 7-25-19, BBB placed a call to the business and was able to leave a message. BBB received a response on 8-6-19. The business response was "I do not want to make any changes to the ad. The word 'free' brings people in. We are helping people that understand how the program works." This Ad Review is being closed as Unsubstantiated-Failed to Modify.
14. “Free”
14.1 An advertiser may use the word “free” in advertising whenever the advertiser is offering an
unconditional gift. If receipt of the “free” product or service is conditional on a purchase:
14.1.1 The advertiser must clearly and conspicuously disclose this condition with the
“free” offer (not simply by placing an asterisk or symbol next to “free” and referring to the
condition(s) in a footnote); and
14.1.2 The advertiser must not have increased the normal price of the product or service
to be purchased nor reduced its quantity or quality.
14.2 The “free” offer should be temporary; otherwise, consumers may view it as a continuous
combination offer, no part of which is free. Thus, where it would otherwise confuse consumers, a
product or service must not be advertised with a “free” offer in a trade area for more than six (6)
months in any 12 month period. At least thirty (30) days must elapse before another such offer is
promoted in the same trade area.
