If You Work With Licensed Beverage Brands, You Need To Understand The Rules Too

Agencies, marketing firms, brokers, brand ambassadors, label designers and other third-party service providers that support alcohol beverage licensees operate in a legally complex environment. TTB tied-house rules, trade practice restrictions, and state-specific regulations can affect how you contract with and provide services to licensed clients even if you’re not licensed yourself.
