產品宣稱及照片分享有秘訣
Jack:早安Nancy,NU SKIN社交媒體使用指引正式上線一段時間了,妳還記得指引內有關產品宣稱以及照片分享的規定嗎?
Nancy:天天都會用到的工具,當然記得啊。
Jack:妳太棒了。了解社交媒體使用指引並且遵循NUSKIN政策與程序,將會幫助妳的NUSKIN事業拓展更加順利,使用社交媒體拓展人脈市場、聯絡下線以及分享經驗更加得心應手。然而,卻有少數事業經營夥伴為了使發佈的內容更加吸引目光,在社交平台上發佈某些不適當的產品見證照片及產品宣稱,這樣的行為會使自己及NU SKIN陷入違法違規風險當中,我們要多加謹慎注意。
Nancy:是怎樣的風險呢?
Jack:妳先參考以下2則在社交媒體上所分享的內容。
Nancy:我的天啊! NU SKIN產品有這麼好的功效,簡直跟靈丹妙藥一樣,這樣子作宣傳OK嗎?
Jack:許多顧客看到NU SKIN產品有如此神通廣大的功效後,第一時間或許會迫不及待地想要購買,但每個人的體質狀況都不一樣,使用產品後所獲得的成效也不一定相同,當顧客使用產品但成效未達到原來的預期時,便會認為自己受騙上當,消費糾紛會因此產生,這不僅會令顧客對NU SKIN產品失去信心,同時也會影響到事業經營夥伴和NU SKIN的聲譽。況且NU SKIN產品為保健產品及肌膚保養品,若以不適當的醫療效果或誇大不實宣稱作為銷售產品的賣點,除了會違反NU SKIN政策與程序外,也會違反本地相關法例。
Nancy:這麼嚴重啊!那我們該如何利用社交媒體合規發佈產品宣稱及分享見證照片呢?
Jack:使用社交媒體發佈產品宣稱及分享見證照片,必須注意以下事項:
保持真實,產品介紹及照片分享必須是真實可信而且不會誤導他人。
遵循NU SKIN發佈的產品聲明,所有聲明應該與NUSKIN官方產品資訊網頁、行銷和相關指引規範一致。
若與NU SKIN行銷資訊不相符時,即使是真實及個人產品見證經驗或聲明都不可使用。
產品見證應該得到NU SKIN證實且經核准的效果保持一致。
產品見證不可以聲稱該產品能治療或預防任何疾病或健康狀況。
Nancy:可以舉一些符合NU SKIN規範的例子給我參考嗎?
Jack:沒問題。夥伴可以在社交媒體上使用經公司核准的產品聲明,分享與核准聲明相符的正面個人產品見證,例如以下內容及方式是可以的。
Nancy:我明白了,感謝你Jack!
Jack:利用社交媒體發佈產品宣稱及分享見證照片,雖然可以直接表現出NU SKIN產品的優異,但是所發佈的產品宣稱及見證照片分享仍然必須符合政策與程序及本地法例等規範,我們守法守規才能有效傳遞產品效果的訊息,吸引更多的潛在顧客願意了解我們NU SKIN事業,也會使我們NU SKIN事業得以更加穩健地發展。

When the customersuse the products but the results do not meet with their expectation, they maythink they are deceived, and it results to a consumer’s dispute. Customers willnot only lose their confidence in NU SKIN products, but it will also impact thebusiness partners and NU SKIN’s reputation negatively.
