Section 7:3A-5.3 - Advertising by businesses

(a) No business shall advertise or represent itself to the public as offering tree care services within the State of New Jersey or use any title, designation, word(s), letter, or abbreviations tending to indicate that a business is a registered business unless it in fact is registered with the Board of Tree Experts.

(b) A registered business shall advertise only those tree care services which its licensee(s) is/are licensed to perform. For example, if a registered business employs only LTCOs, it shall not advertise services that are exclusively LTE services.

(d) Any registered business that wishes to advertise shall include its name and its registration number in any form of medium of advertisement relating to tree care services. The registered business shall identify its registration number in the following way:

1. The words "NJTC Registration"; and

2. The business's registration number, preceded by the "#" symbol.

(e) An example of the correct advertisement form for businesses is:

1. John Doe Tree Experts, NJTC Registration #100.
