Can a broker solicit new sales agents by promising to provide them leads in exchange for a required payment?
是的. 然而, this activity triggers the Business Opportunity Rule, which is a federal law requiring a brokerage to provide the sales agent with the Federal Trade Commission’s one-page 信息披露 notice, Disclosure of Important Information About Business Opportunity. A brokerage can offer 广告 or training in its solicitation without triggering the Business Opportunity Rule if it does not promote these activities as leading to the sales agents’ success. Instead, the brokerage’s solicitation should focus only on the assistance provided.
