The Endorsement Agreement is a crucial legal document used when a business seeks to partner with a public figure, celebrity, athlete, or influencer to promote their products or services in the Australian market. This agreement type has become increasingly important with the rise of social media marketing and influencer partnerships. The document covers essential elements such as the scope of endorsement services, compensation structures, exclusivity provisions, and compliance with Australian advertising standards and consumer protection laws. It includes specific provisions required under Australian legislation, particularly the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 and the Australian Consumer Law, addressing issues such as misleading and deceptive conduct in advertising. The agreement typically includes detailed schedules outlining specific deliverables, approval processes, and brand guidelines, making it suitable for both traditional celebrity endorsements and modern influencer marketing arrangements.
